? I thought this one was pretty cut n dry. It's clearly a spy app from China. Not understanding this move by Trump.

Yes I did vote Trump but I can't agree with him here unless I'm missing something

I think he has getting a deal done for a co-ownership with a US company. Not him personally, but someone. If they get a US company to own 50% then they are allowed to stay operating in the US.
I may be wrong, but it won’t be the same ownership situation as it was.

Money and support. For sure. He got donations and massive support from young voters. Trump even honestly said this to reporters. Said the young folks helped him get elected and depend on the site to make a living. He is at least going to try to make it viable and not as dangerous to use. I saw a stat today that 7 million small businesses will be effected by shutting this site down. That is a big deal politically imo.
 
He acknowledged that it was a serious threat to national security. Now he’s on his soap box about reinstating it. The reason is $$ - back channel, family member, whatever. They bought him. That’s the rule now, not the exception.
 
I want to know why its imperative the Chinese can't have tiktok but yet are allowed to purchase hundreds of thousands of acres in America, send their students to American universities, and manufacture all of our medicine?
(Partly kidding) There's a Chinese restaurant in almost every small town in rural America. By accident? Playing the looooong game on us

Biden pardons his son so he won’t go down for selling out his country. Trump wants to try to make tic tok an American owned company. So it won’t be as dangerous because it will not report solely back to the Chinese communist party. The left is jumping in with both feet to say he is on the take. Might be the funniest and most hypocritical shit I have ever heard.

I’m sure the CEO, who will attend the inauguration, will ultimately purchase a say in White House policy. Maybe he will get an office next to Elon’s.

Wonder how much $Trump “coins” foreign institutional investors purchased this week.

The House of Representatives spent millions investigating Biden’s son. It was a waste of time. He’s was just your average scum bag. He got indicted and plead guilty to some of what he did. Not sure how that relates to this situation. It will be interesting to see how much $Trump coin was purchased by institutional Chinese investors this week.

He pardoned his son because it had already been proven it could link back to dear old dad. Don’t believe me I can have moose link the drawn out issue again. It isn’t even arguable kidney. He had to pardon him. It is hilarious you bring up that waste of money when the fbi and congress admitted to wasting 40 plus million investigating Trump. How much has this same tactic cost New York and even Atlanta? Not to mention what crime has done to both of those cities. You have people in Atlanta dying in prison waiting for arraignments because of this distraction.

How much did jack smith waste with his million document case? At least hunter was guilty as hell and required a pardon. On appeal, they will have wasted over 200 million trying to put Trump in jail and 1 and a half billion trying to beat him in an election.

Trump actually is being very transparent. He is telling you exactly why to everyone that will listen. If you can some how pull the tds out of your ears, you would know it is political for sure. But he isn’t on the take for it. I know the left only cars about illegals and Ukrainians, but people that use tic tok for their livelihood are Americans. That would make it worth looking into. He isn’t denying the issue of national security. He is trying to make it go away
 
Bottom line - there isn’t anything he can do that you will criticize, and there isn’t anything he can do that I will praise. Hope I’m wrong.

Sure there is. I am not sure he is doing the right thing by pursuing this. But he is giving a reason That is at least understandable. All I am saying. The last time he was president he was the first to ever lose wealth while in office. I think now being on the take being parroted from cnn and others is beyond ridiculous. It is so desperate. Trump will screw up plenty. I am sure of it. But there is no way to be worse than Biden. It just isn’t possible to reproduce the trainwreck that was the last four years

Ego.

It’s all set up so it looks like he was the sole savior of tictok for the people who use it frequently. He loves that role and it brings him some more cult followers.

Because TikTok is a propaganda machine.

There’s no need to speculate, just Google it. One of his billionaire boosters purchased a huge stake in bytedance during the Biden ministration. Trump doesn’t want his buddy to lose a lot of money so he’s going to let it stay in and poison our country. All in the name of money. Disgrace.

Get in on the latest grift ..,

I’m not a big crypto guy, but I have friends who are and most of them supported Trump. They are absolutely livid that Trump launched a meme coin days before taking office and has personally enriched himself to the tune of billions of dollars.

And none of his supporters on here will have a single issue with the fact that Trump created a multi-billion dollar laundering mechanism that allows anyone, domestic or foreign, to effectively hand him massive amounts of money.

He roughly quadrupled his personal net worth in two days. The fact that it’s not the only thing that anyone is talking about right now tells you how completely corrupted the system has become.

We’ve come a long way from Carter selling his peanut farm to avoid the potential appearance of a conflict of interest.

Happy Inauguration Day for those who celebrate.

Gotta give props to Biden for ending the War in Gaza after 15 months and returning the hostages just in time before Trump gets in. It would have gone on forever had Joe B not concluded his 15 month long negotiation a day before inauguration.

Lol. Ok. Tell me how the Trump meme coin isn’t all about personally enriching the now President through an untraceable financial instrument that allows any individual, company or government to bid up the value and thus increase the value of the 80% of the total float owned by Trump?

I’ll hang up and listen.

No comment on the Trump meme coin?

Y’all enjoy the day. It is a triumphant return to office for Trump and we can all look forward to what will be a very busy first few weeks back in the WH.

I don’t love the meme coin thing and no doubt he is in a unique position to cash in on his fame and popularity. As he has with DJT and other things. As Obama has with his mansions in Martha’s and other places.

However, color me a lot more skeptical about guys who took office with minimal net worth and left wealthy. Not only did they have a lot more motive …in the case of Biden things were done with intentional efforts to keep
It out of the light. With DJt and coins, these are open market prices with ownership clearly stated.

Bottom line - Biden used his position to push his family’s net worth by 10x while in office…services rendered being tied to his actual
Policy in office.

Until Trump does things in office that run counter to Americans interests….but enrich him personally, it is simply cashing in on fame. Dude was crazy wealthy in 2016. He’s crazy wealthy now.

Yes. It is almost amazing the other side says a word these days. With what pelosi has gotten away with in the market. Joe pardoned his way out of a real mess. Now, in the very last hour pardoned his way out of even more trouble. The Dems during the last 8 years have made Richard Nixon look more like Richard Simmons. The crooked bs is out of control. Totally supported by the media who can’t stop lying.

One of the moron women who moderated a debate said he issued Liz Chaney a pardon because Trump threatened to put her in front of a firing squad. That isn’t what he said at all. But heaven forbid anyone from the msm ever try to get it right. And why was someone so biased allowed to moderate anything.

The left tried to take nearly a billion dollars from him with lawfare. And now they want to stand on a pedestal and be pissed that he may try to openly make it back. It never ceases to amaze me how hypocritical and blinded by tds lefties can be. It is a mental illness I swear.

You did bring up the one hurdle they can’t figure out how to get around. He has lost wealth since running for president.

Right I get that. But on the scale of national security threats, to me the medicine, farm land purchasing, and accepting Chinese students seems a lot more dangerous than propaganda.

Especially considering the Chinese propaganda pales in comparison to the propaganda being pumped out of Hollywood.

To screw over all of those in congress that bought FB/Meta shares to gain from TT being shut down?

I encouraged the GOP to launch a formal impeachment process for several years, so please don’t suggest I wasn’t willing to hold Biden accountable if the facts presented in a formal hearing justified it. For some reason the GOP just couldn’t ever get there.

None of that changes the fact that Trump has set up a mechanism for domestic and foreign entities to enrich him to the tune of billions of dollars. He retains ownership of 80% of the coins and will make money off of high volume trading as well as the increase in the value of the coins that occur from outside investment.

Obviously you are ok with this given you “don’t love it” but then go on to justify it.

Keep an eye on the billionaires at the inauguration today. They have more direct influence on our politics than ever before and I have zero reason to think that they are going to focus on reducing the price of eggs or making things better for those of us who engage in debate here on the Chat.

Y’all enjoy the day. Trump earned his win and now we will get exactly what we deserve out of his presidency. I hope it is what you think it will be and not what I think it will be.

Don’t love it because I don’t think a President cashing in on the fame of the office feels great.

You don’t love it because you think foreign entities will use it to buy Trump to act against the interests of Americans. I don’t buy that shit at all.

As for your “impeachment or nothing” defense of Biden, we have litigated this. Common sense tells anyone that the dude is very corrupt. Made even worse by the hypocrisy shown by him and the media towards Trump. Who has built wealth out in the open for clearly defined sources.

Oh…the billionaires who have made their wealth with talent and managerial skill? And aren’t motivated by money anymore? Sure wish we had more academics and lifetime politicians attempting to
Run shit.

Biden is so obviously corrupt that the GOP refused to initiate a formal impeachment process because of what reason? Make it make sense.

So I guess you find Trump to be of such established high moral character that he will be impervious to the influence of billions of dollars of personal enrichment.

I’m sure that Elon doesn’t expect any return from the $278m (that we know of) he put towards supporting the Trump campaign. He and the other domestic oligarchs just want what’s best for the country.

I’m already regretting breaking my vow to limit any time on the Chat. Today is Trump’s day. I’ll leave it to y’all to celebrate.
