Perhaps the United States Congress does not realize how bad this ban will be. That’s going to be devastating for the small business owners, the single moms, the artists, the comedians, and so many more who use the app and rely on it to make a living and make the economy go round.

Actually, it could even be devastating for the politicians who rely on the app to reach constituents and make an impact (some of which even voted for the ban, for some reason).

The law authorizing the sale itself feels like a swing and a miss for many; I have to agree. Some have said the ban is meant to serve as a distraction from other things; I don’t buy that. Some have even been in denial that the ban won’t take effect; It likely will, to be honest with you all.

The two options are simple: the Supreme Court stays the looming ban for now as it plays out in their court, or rules the ban is unconstitutional. I’m speculating on everything because I don’t know how they’re feeling. No one does. Just going off what the Court’s Justices stated during oral arguments this past Friday.

If the last 8 years in politics have taught me anything, it’s that anything can happen, for better or for worse. We’ll see what happens.
