Trump’s threat to ban TikTok got the lip-synch treatment – and a lot more
Donald Trump claims he’s banning TikTok in the US, supposedly for security reasons but most probably over some petty annoyance that its users tend not to like him.
The threat must be partly because TikTok teens have been disrupting Trump’s campaigning by snapping up the free tickets for his rallies and by adding items to the shopping cart on the Trump 2020 website, but never checking out.
People have reacted much as you’d expect.
If he fights TikTok as successfully as he fought Covid, you'll find it running on your toaster in six weeks with no way to uninstall it.

Donald Trump just announced that he’s banning TikTok. He clearly has no idea what these TikTok kids are about to do to him in response.

One massive strike against TikTok, from Trump’s point of view, is the account of Sarah Cooper – the comedian who has absolutely eviscerated him by lip-synching to his own words and shining a light on his weird thoughts and intentions.
His announcement didn’t escape her notice.

People loved her most recent rinse of the President.
Can the Pulitzer Prize committee come up with a special category for Sarah Cooper? https://t.co/2RGxQFLKKP

Sarah also pointed out something he may have overlooked.
