    The one single consistent thing about Trump is that all his opinions are for sale.

    Narcissists don’t hold opinions.

    They only care about what betters themselves or their wallets in any given moment and pronounce any opinion that works towards that goal in that moment.

        Okay? I didn’t say he was better on any other issue. I just find it funny that people are fear mongering about TikTok and meanwhile Trump has accidentally stumbled backwards into a better position on the issue than Biden.

        Don’t worry honey I’m not a single issue TikTok voter 🙄

          Trump has accidentally stumbled backwards into a better position on the issue than Biden

          I don’t think Trump has a better position on anything - but mostly because he doesn’t actually have a political philosophy other than “I should be dictator”. He doesn’t lead his mob, he follows it. So he doesn’t have any positions of his own.

          There is no issue on which he has a strong moral stance. It’s all self-glorification. For example - he doesn’t give a shit about abortion. Never has. It’s probably benefited him in the past actually. But his base hates it and therefore so does he. So now he takes credit for its loss of federal protection. If his base decides TikTok must go he’ll change again.

            I’m not convinced. I think China can just pay him to say TikTok is good and his base will bend over backwards to accommodate him.

            And if that’s the case, China could just pay him to have better China policy than Biden.

            Well. “Better” from a pro-China perspective. If you’re one of those people who think we need war with China this is a disaster.
