'Trump is for sale': Conservatives outraged over ex-president's TikTok flip-flop
Donald Trump was anti-TikTok until he was all-in.The former president who many moons ago sought to ban the trendy Chinese government-owned social media app while holding office — has not only made a 180-degree switch by launching his very own account — but he's also come forward publicly by promis.....
They didn’t notice that in ‘16?!?
They did. But now he’s taking money from the wrong people instead of the right people.
Conservatives have party loyalty, not MAGA loyalty. They ignore the majority of Trump’s ramblings as long as he favors free market, tax loopholes, and covert bigotry and racism. Being “soft on China” adversely impacts the US market, so they spoke out.
I’m surprised the left isn’t more behind distancing the US economy from China. They’ve been committing genocide for longer than Russia and Israel.

GOP has had two wings since Nixon came up with the Southern Strategy; the money people and the church people. The church people love Trump unconditionally. They will dump the GOP in a second if the GOP moves away from Trump.
I like to use this analogy. The GOP is like a high school with the teachers being the money folks. Trump was the new football coach who won a lot of games by feeding the team steroids and meth. Now the teachers are trying to figure out what to do now that the students are burning down the school.
How many are “outraged?” And are they so outraged as to consider not voting for him? If not, this story is meaningless.
Hold on, they're not that outraged, let's not get crazy here. After all, every single one of them flip flops every single day. How else can they be okay with being followers of Christ that support a racist rapist felon?
It's still an interesting story. Even if 99% of his cultists stick with him every bad decision he makes peels some away.
For real, the GOP already appointed his daughter*-in-law* (corrected) to co-chair the whole fucking party. Their outrage is entirely political kabuki.
*daughter-in-law
I mean I know some conservatives who already were feeling very lost about the election since they can't bring themselves to vote for a felon. I think the cracks have started appearing for some people.
What conservatives are outrages?
The ones pretending to be outraged.
Ones that want to also be able to make money grifting
No they're not
The shorter list is what politician isnt for sale?
Bernie, the Squad and maybe a handful more in Washington.
Basically, the ones who don't take corporate PAC money and who routinely speak out against billionaires are at the very least much LESS corrupt than those who keep making excuses for being beholden to both.
The reason why you're being downvoted here is beyond me. Surely, everybody understands, that vast majority of politicians are "for sale", and maybe only a handful of them have any decency at all.
Probably the usual contingent of pro-establishment neoliberal lemmings that roam in large herds across all of the political groups, pretending that only the fascist party is ever wrong or corrupt, while being a Dem is to automatically be pure and good and right about everything 🤷
Thankfully, they usually get outvoted by people without their blinders, like seems to have been the case here 🙂

With a guy who has been caught red handed doing so many awful things, there is little to be gained by wild postulation. Currently the best delineation we have between the sane and the insane is a respect for verifiable truth.
So are you. You’re just pissed that he’s so public about it.
Edit: this is a fictional reply to the conservatives in the article, not the OP.
