TikTok Ban Deadline Lapses as US Government Talks Continue

TikTok just needs to stall and drag this out for another 1.5 months.

Shouldn't be too difficult to stay under the radar. Trump hardly shows up to work anymore.

WASHINGTON — Over the past week, President Trump posted or reposted about 145 messages on Twitter lashing out at the results of an election he lost. He mentioned the coronavirus pandemic now reaching its darkest hours four times — and even then just to assert that he was right about the outbreak and the experts were wrong.

Moody and by accounts of his advisers sometimes depressed, the president barely shows up to work, ignoring the health and economic crises afflicting the nation and largely clearing his public schedule of meetings unrelated to his desperate bid to rewrite the election results. He has fixated on rewarding friends, purging the disloyal and punishing a growing list of perceived enemies that now includes Republican governors, his own attorney general and even Fox News.

edit: why isn’t this thread marked as political?

because it’s more of a soap opera...

What a mess. Trump has caused so much damage to the presidency. Foolish childish actions on such a large canvas and only over his massive fragile ego. Good riddance and hopefully we can clean up and undo all the moronic damage he has caused.

I couldn’t be more excited that you provided everyone on this forum with all of Joe Biden’s GREATEST accomplishments. I’ll now go and spread the word!!!

Ok... so you're clearly Anti-All of these things then, a great place to be.

As Veep:
-2009 -- he was in charge of implementing American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009, which was the biggest economic recovery in our history.
-2011 -- Lead negotiator to pass the Budget Control Act of 2011
-2014 -- Re-tooled 1.5 billion dollars in grants to align with job-driven trainings
-He was instrumental in the Affordable Care Act, which of course continues to rise in popularity now that people know what it actually does
-Launched the Cancer Moonshot to accelerate cancer research and treatments

As Senator:
-Sponsored the Violence Against Women Act of 1994. This has led to a massive decline in intimate partner violence.
-Confirmed Ruth Bader Ginsburg as head of the judiciary committee.
-Broke the gender barrier on said Judiciary Committee.
-Cosponsored the legislation to curb greenhouse gases in 2007
-Introduced the Senate's first climate change bills in 1986
-Subsequently whipped votes for the Clean Air Act of 1990 (which kinda stopped the acid rain problem)
-Secured the passage of SALT II
-Pushed for sanctions against Apartheid South Africa
-Supported military involvement in Yugoslavia in the 90s when there was literal ethnic cleansing taking place
-Expanded NATO to allow Warsaw Pact countries to join
-Primary sponsor of the PROTECT Our Children Act of 2008
-Sponsored the Criminal History Background Checks Pilot Extension Act in 2008 -- this allowed for volunteer youth sports and group organizations to obtain state and federal background checks on their volunteers

And yes, co-authored the 1994 crime bill (which passed 95-4, by the way, and not a single black member of either chamber voted against it), which has been a resounding success outside of the Truth-In-Sentencing piece... but only 1 candidate this cycle has made it a point that they will address that and implement corrections. Do you want to wager a guess on which candidate that was?

This is just a small list, of course. But I'm sure you already knew that, since you are so wise.

Joe Biden’s been a politician for 47years, Vice President 2x, with nothing to show for. Expect the 94' crime bill and a crackhead son o_O.TikTok can’t wait to pull Biden’s strings.

If you are unaware of what he has done, then perhaps you shouldn't be part of the conversation. What an asinine thing to repeat (repeat, because it isn't an original thought) and it has an exclamation mark on that when you can't even spell "except" correctly.

Actually, I too can google information to make me all the wiser on any given topic. Let’s agree to disagree Mr. Google.

Typical formula:

a: *rabble rabble rabble* provide facts for your claims, LIBERAL
b: Okay here is a whole list of information to back up my claims
a: *dismisses facts* (didn't actually want facts, just wanted to waste your time)
