Trump Now Says He’ll ‘Save’ TikTok

September 5, 2024 · 9:20 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Donald Trump claimed he would “save TikTok in America,” a far cry from the days of 2020 when he sought to ban the social media platform via an executive order, The Independent reports.

Said Trump: “For all of those who want to save TikTok in America, vote Trump. The other side is closing it up. But I’m now a big star on TikTok… We’re not doing anything with TikTok, but the other side is going to close it up.”
