00:00As of today, TikTok is back.
00:05Yes, it's the savior of Gen Z, Donald Trump,
00:10who kept the U.S. from total annihilation
00:12by ending the TikTok ban, which caused utter chaos.
00:16Nothing happened other than it came back on 14 hours later.
00:20But just think what those 14 hours did
00:22for people's carpal tunnel syndrome.
00:24So, how did Trump work this out?
00:26So I said, I'll approve,
00:28but let the United States of America own 50% of TikTok.
00:34Yes, it's the best U.S. and China pairing since Rush Hour!
00:38Just one problem.
00:40I don't know how that works.
00:41It is a bit vague with the who owns what now.
00:44Also confusing?
00:45Congress passed a law, the president signed the law,
00:48the Supreme Court affirmed the law,
00:50so I'm not sure how he then creates a partnership.
00:55I don't know if this is a done deal.
00:57You mean TikTok could go away again?
01:00What will animals who are forced to wear terrible costumes
01:03supposed to do with themselves?
01:05In the end, one thing's for sure.
01:07There's a brilliance on Trump's part here
01:09because you want them to take it away
01:11so they feel what they've lost
01:13and then Trump comes in and saves it.
01:15It was all premeditated, though.
01:16Let's take it away and I'll put him back.
01:18That's exactly what I just said.
01:21Hey, you went 14 hours without TikTok.
01:23Cut the guy a break.
01:25No idea how this TikTok mishegoss is going to play out.
01:28Goodbye, everybody!
01:29So I like TikTok.
