Just so everyone knows, especially the young people, Crooked Joe Biden is responsible for banning TikTok. He is the one pushing it to close, and doing it to help his friends over at Facebook become richer and more dominant, and able to continue to fight, perhaps illegally, the Republican Party. It’s called ELECTION INTERFERENCE! Young people, and lots of others, must remember this on November 5th, ELECTION DAY, when they vote! They also must remember, more importantly, that he is destroying our Country, and is A MAJOR THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!


Wait a minute. Isn't that the opposite of Trump's position when he was in office? I'm sure you all well remember what happened in 2020.

On July 31, Donald Trump told reporters that he would be banning TikTok's operations in the United States, rejecting a potential deal where ByteDance would sell a majority stake in TikTok to an American tech company such as Microsoft.[7] Trump reversed this position a few days later, announcing on August 3 that TikTok had until September 15 to sell a majority of its holdings to a company based in the United States. He stipulated, however, that the United States Department of the Treasury would have to receive a "substantial amount of money" from the deal, attributing TikTok's success to operations in the United States and arguing that TikTok owed the United States government for this success.[8]

On August 6, 2020 Donald Trump issued Executive Order 13942, directing the Secretary of Commerce to prohibit any and all transactions with ByteDance under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. To invoke the act, Trump also declared a national emergency based on the information TikTok collects.[9] The order gave ByteDance until November 12, 45 days after the issuing of the order, to sell a majority portion of the company to an American company.[10] On November 13, Trump extended the deadline to November 27,[11] and then to December 4.[10]

TikTok sued in federal court..

On December 7, 2020, three days after the deadline to sell the company had passed, Nichols fully blocked Trump's request to ban TikTok in the United States. The judge argued that Trump's emergency economic powers did not suffice to operate an arbitrary ban on a mobile app.[18]
Biden is taking exactly the same position as Trump, except that Biden is enacting it with the overwhelming bipartisan support of Congress.


For the record, I do not believe TikTok should be banned. But I find it amusing that Trump's policy on TikTok is just as conveniently flexible as his policy on abortion.
