Trump Says He Will ‘Never Ban TikTok’ if Elected - NYPost
==========
Former US President Donald Trump, once a stern critic of China’s TikTok, has said he will never ban the short-video app in the US if he is brought to power in the country’s election in November. Trump's remarks are a sharp U-turn from his earlier stance on the app, given it was he who began the US crusade against TikTok during his presidency in 2020. At the time, he attempted to ban the app calling it a national security concern due to the personal data it collected on its 100 million American users. That plan was, however, struck down by US courts. Trump recently joined TikTok as part of his election campaign against US President Joe Biden, who already has a profile on the app. The Biden government has passed a new law requiring TikTok’s Chinese owner ByteDance to divest the app or face a ban in the US. Trump called Biden the 'worst president in history' and pledged to never ban TikTok.
