Pres. Trump said in an interview on CNN:
- it's ultimately up to me
He did not specify what he wants to do, but he has said/implied that he wants TikTok to be American owned and operated within the United States.
Trump benefited from TikTok in the election. He doesn't want to overshadow the TikTok audience, but from the Chinese side, they have a valuable asset to horse trade by introducing lower tariffs (?)
