he’ll say three entirely different things on this within 24 hours im sure.

it’s likely not even legal for a president to do this to a single product or a single company.

but, if this is the precedent he wants to push to normalize, i say go for it, it’ll be kind of interesting to see which individual company’s products are targeted when a progressive inevitably takes power.

it seems to me all of the things he’s normalizing will be comical to watch repeated once a progressive candidate comes along who realizes progressive voters crave red meat too.

There is no illegal anymore.

He has proven, over and over, that he threatens to put extreme tariffs and then rolls back. I can't believe for one second that this is more than a threat.

Big Tech will outplay him. They are doing that to the whole world.

Will he be the first US president to actually "fix" Big Tech?
