I think this article and headline does a poor job of explaining the wider context around this one.

It is likely to be aimed at financial traders who want to see market-moving news fast. Trump’s social media posts often cause sudden swings in global markets, especially when he writes about trade and tariffs.

For firms, a delay of even seconds can be costly. Until now, banks and traders had to monitor the app manually. The new system will send posts directly to paying clients.

Hope I get to buy that ticket one day.

As someone living there, me too...

------ I agree that from the outside it does look like the entirety of America doesn't care ------ but

We have had some large protests, there's growing discontent and assuming there isn't a crazy amount of fuckery (there may well be though but we'll see) the GOP will lose their majority in Congress. It's possible then that something more may be done.

The problem is most people are comfortable enough and would prefer not to get engaged in violence but we have had some large non violent protests.

The bigger problem is that all 3 branches of our federal government (judicial/legislative/executive) are controlled by one political party and those in power are subservient to Trump and the MAGA pieces of shit.

I'd call it a design flaw but it is also kind of what happens with all Republics and ours was built this way on purpose. One could argue if all 3 branches of the government agree on something it's probably worth doing. The question then becomes, what are they agreeing on and is it actually good for the majority of us or are we doing terrible things in the name of the state?

Idk I mean I'm sure I could, and people have, write a small dissertation here but I'll stop now. Just .. it's fucked up for us Americans here in USA too and a lot of us hate it.
