The Washington Post published the article below which includes information on Trump’s change in position to pro TikTok. It leaves out his contacts with Republican donors, one who owns a share of TikTok. These discussions presumably were influential in changing his position. Trump responds to people who give him money. I wrote a tweet reply to the Post on this but they haven’t added anything to their article.

Trump’s TikTok flip raises concerns over billionaire clout

John Cornyn, a Republican senator from Texas, supports Trump’s goal of recess appointments. He opposed them when Obama did them.

Manu Raju on CNN made a tweet on Cornyn’s current position. I replied asking if he asked Cornyn on his prior position.

See my posts on X (Twitter.) I am taking a Twitter break

Trump will use the appointments of unqualified people like Gaetz and Kennedy to increase his power. He’s shitting on Republican senators who will have two bad options:

1. vote for bad choices to avoid the wrath of Trump and threats from his cult
2. Let Trump increase power with recess appointments. They can avoid voting this way.

I predict they will take the coward’s way out – recess appointments.
