Trump wants to weaponise the FCC to go against social media companies who “ban free speech” or whatever, just like Elon complained about before buying Twitter, and like all other right wingers are so mad about. But if the FCC doesn’t have any authority to regulate ISPs, why should it have authority to regulate social media companies. Not that the courts seem to care about precedent anymore, but that’s the silver lining they are looking for.
Like trying to pass gun control with a political party vocally advocating for the purge? Or after a insurrection? or after police brutality across the nation captured on high definition cameras during a protest about police brutality?
Can you please explain what this means? I’m not sure I understand correctly.

Thank you for the explanation, that makes sense
It means that folks are still expecting logic and consistency out of US lawmakers.
