    That would be hilarious

    I live in some hope that he renames his holding company "XCOM" so that it can join the likes of Skynet in making our childhoods real..

    I think it could happen. As soon as he's in the government, they will decide that TikTok is illegal, and he'll either launch the clone or buy the US version from them.

    I actually believe it's more likely than not.

    Then the propaganda machine will include both Twitter and TikTok. You'll probably never see a fair election again in the US.

    Wait didn't they already decide TikTok was illegal? I thought that ban was taking effect soon
