If the US bans one app, there are plenty of other ways of communicating or sending money that are not banned including Facebook, Whatsapp, Google, Apple Facetime, Apple pay, Venmo, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Plenty of alternatives. So what's the big deal?

I have no doubt that Trump would have actually preferred to ban the New York Times, Washington Post, The New Yorker and The Atlantic. I presume he's just getting warmed up.

This is the "Second" step of Trumps fascist takeover.

First try to engineer the supreme court so he can do whatever he wants.

Second, prevent private communications from occurring, by controlling the communications. If you think this is only how far he will go, think again. He will use the same process to block any communications he cannot approve of.

Third, using the virus to be a tool to in effect eliminate those he does not approve of. Why do you think he didn't Marshall all the production necessary for PPE and other resources under the Defense Production Act.

And now he is using the Federal Government and Military against the people of the United States, like William Barr being his personal law firm.

What's next?
