Trump says he has “very rich folks” prepared to purchase TikTok

Within the by no means ending — and barely weird, if I could add — saga of TikTok within the States, President Donald Trump has introduced that he has folks prepared to accumulate the app. The president made this claim in an interview on Fox Information, on the “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo” present.

TikTok, a very talked-about Chinese language social media app, has been the topic of scrutiny for a very long time. Many have alleged that the app is a priority for nationwide safety, in addition to a propaganda instrument for the CCP. As such, the app should both be banned from the U.S. solely, or have its American operations bought to a non-Chinese language entity.

TikTok was speculated to have ceased functioning Stateside an extended whereas again, however President Trump has now prolonged this deadline 3 times. Probably the most latest TikTok ban extension came about just below two weeks in the past on June 19.

This rollercoaster could lastly be coming to an finish, nonetheless. President Donald Trump mentioned in the present day that he had some “very rich folks” who’re prepared to purchase the app. Trump additionally mentioned that the identities of those folks can be revealed in about a few weeks.

Some have dismissed the notion that TikTok could possibly be used to sow civil unrest and discord amongst the American folks. Others are staunchly towards the continued operation of TikTok within the U.S., and wish the app to be taken offline completely.

Personally, I’m not likely a fan of the app. Its complete construction promotes shorter and shorter consideration spans, and there’s some actually questionable content material on there. Nevertheless, I’ve additionally by no means been a fan of outright banning one thing from a whole nation, although many would argue that China does the identical.

I hope that these “very rich folks” don’t dillydally too lengthy, and purchase TikTok in order that this whole ordeal can hopefully be put behind us. Will TikTok change underneath new possession like X (previously Twitter) has underneath Elon Musk? Or will it stay precisely the identical, and customers will declare that this group of individuals wasted cash for no purpose?

Both manner, it appears that evidently the overdue ending to this story is lastly nearly upon us.
