  Ah, so now the president chooses who gets to buy which businesses, totally not choosing the ones who will cock suck him all day.

  And TikTok will not be the last.

    I mean, there already was this functionality, but the rule was you couldn’t disrupt the market or make a monopoly or something like that idk I’ve done like two mergers I’m not exactly a specialist.

  Bet it’s the Moonies. They’re cashed up and all over right-wing politics across the world.

    Yup, just like we were going to wait 2 weeks to decide whether to engage with Iran, or get trade deals during the temporary tariff lift. So much trust right now.

  In order to make sure they were wealthy enough, I’m sure he personally tested them one by one, challenging to send him a big donation in cryptocurrencies.

  That’s what a committed President-slash-genius looks like!

  How profound! I would have thought a group of poor people were sure to snag it up.
