Former President Donald Trump has shown he is not going to fight for conservatives if he ends up getting reelected. His second term would be all about selling out.

This is the chief takeaway from Trump flip-flopping on TikTok. He had previously (correctly) pushed to ban the app for being Chinese spyware, which it clearly is. He pursued an executive order that would ban TikTok unless the Chinese company that owns it, ByteDance, sells the app to a company that does not have ties to the Chinese Communist Party.
