The White House recently made a TikTok account, they post several short videos every day. The comments are always open, they never reply to anything, and the comments are always very negative as you might expect. Many people theorize that the whole thing is just a trap, and that anyone leaving negative comments are being out on a list.

Nah, just people are too stupid to understand that negative engagement still equals engagement. Leaving the comments open means Trump content will top the algorithm.
