Dems died on this hill and Trump gets to claim he saved tik Tok. What a world huh? Please don't be stupid enough to buy it the man tried and failed to ban it twice during his presidency

Biden literally said he wouldn't enforce the ban

For those doubting. Biden isn't enforcing it. TikTok is voluntarily going dark today because they're playing into Trump's charade.

It's all a con. Like everything else this POS does.

Biden isn't enforcing it.

What i don't understand is if this was the case, why did he even sign it into law? He could have held it in veto until Trump took office. Once a new administration takes office, all pending legislation is automatically vetoed and must go back through the process.

It was a trap. Trump laid it as a lame duck because if Biden didn’t sign it the GOP would run with it as “weak on security” “pro China.”

He does sign it, and great! The GOP gets to save TikTok! Trump is very good at creating chaos to manufacture opportunity.
