    My company advertises on TikTok. Much better return than any of the other platforms. I say let it stay.

    It's from China so I'm fine with banning it.

    It's the add ons. It started out like a good idea. Noem banned it for state employees in South Dakota, those still alive after covid that is. Other states did too

    The whole VPN thing could be a conspiracy theory but we know about conspiracy theories these days.

    It's literally the Chinese spying on us and mining our data. Trump tried.

    IDGAF about this.

    Should I?

    Still focused on the 5 things that matter to me.

    Energy independence
    Domestic infrastructure
    Consistent power projecting FP wrt China
    The southern border
    Lower taxes

    I realize it isn’t sexy but it’s good for 4-6 yards per play.

    The other stuff is all bullshit and goes away when serious people are in charge….

    Desantis brings Trump policy without the trump baggage. Think 2018 with a less chaotic news cycle. Sure they’ll try to paint him as an ultra maga white supremicist nazi, but he’s smart enough to not give the media or opposite aisle house reps enough meat to make swing voters wonder if he actually is….

    He already has

    Don't say gay

    Can't teach about slavery

    Disney World

    Burning books

    Truth ain't got nothing to do with it. It's the daily drumbeat until the soft fucking middle says - gee if he goes away we can eat ice cream in peace and Joe can unite us

    Would love to be wrong but it is so rare

    I doubt Desantis is faced with a historic pandemic or January 6 moment, but sure…the media is already cultivating the narrative that he’s Trump II.

    Let’s see how long Joe can delay a recession. If it hits next year, it may not matter.
