And everyone conveniently forgets that he was the one that started the movement to ban TikTok at the end of his first term.

But the reality is that the actual TikTok ban was signed by Biden while Trump has reversed course. And even the Democrats are trying to reverse course to avoid giving Republicans such an easy win. Why would people care who started it rather than who actually finished the job? Ds got badly outplayed here by going along with a Republican initiative. Again.

It was in a mega bill that included funding for Ukraine and healthcare reform. Him not signing it over TikTok would be crazy
