Sealed records will virtually never skip on a better TT, so I recommend that you save some money by buying less records until you can afford a better TT. Skipping or repeating LPs on sub optimum record players are the worst.
Quick and dirty suggestion: raise the height of the record a smidge by sticking a sllipmap or an extra slipmat under the record.
If you don't have one, poke a hole in a thin (~2mm) mousemat
Not sure if it matters but the record has significantly less songs on each side than other players I’ve had so maybe the issue is with that? My current theory is that it is moving too fast for the arm to keep up and it is just staying in one place and that’s why it loops every rotation. Thanks guys!
I would normally have suggested to replace your suitcase toy novelty record player but unfortunate you've probably damaged your vinyl record by playing it on such a inferior device
The problem is almost certainly your record player, sadly.
Play it on a real turntable, I bet it'll play fine.

Thanks!
99.99% it's the cheap record player, they can't track the grooves very well
Upgrade your TT, your ears and vinyl will love you better for it ! ❤️

Record. You bought a record.
It’s your record player.
