no, but it just helps with the they're all as bad thing.

It is more difficult for Democrats/liberals to do the moral high ground thing now, that is the reality.

clinton (democrat!) pardoned a massive paedophile, so there's always been something bad to point at!

The most interesting question right now is the extent to which Trump is actually MAGA. The Rest is Politics US had some interesting commentary on this. 
 

The idea is that Trump uses his base in a way that benefits him. The evidence for that is his public flip-flopping over decades including donating to various democrat causes or campaigns. Trump isn’t actually interested in MAGA beyond how it serves him, and would be happy for it to die after his second term, so he can egotistically claim that it was all to do with him personally.
 

So what for his second term? He doesn’t need MAGA any longer. Hence why he’s cosying up to rich ‘friends’ and taking stances they disapprove of. 
 

That implies next level degree chaos as Trump does whatever the hell he likes, pisses off his angry, armed base in the process, and to hell with the future.

Sounds like Musk might be buying Tiktok so our kids don't get brainwashed by Chinese communist propaganda 😄

TikTok has denied this and seems to have accepted no more US for them, at least for now.

 

Though can guess talks have been going on behind the scenes to find a US-based buyer that might get convinced to pay way over the odds for it.
