“As far as TikTok is concerned, we’re banning them from the United States,” Trump said while aboard Air Force One.
While on Air Force One, Trump said he didn’t favor letting ByteDance sell off TikTok like that. For TikTok, Trump said he would use emergency economic powers or an executive order to ban the app.
Parts of the U.S. military has already banned the app from government phones over security concerns, and the Pentagon has urged its staff to do the same. In June, India issued its own country-wide ban following rising political tensions with China. ByteDance bought the predecessor app, Musical.ly, to TikTok in 2017, then rebranded it and spun into the global phenomenon it has become. It has been downloaded almost 2 billion times across the world, creating a new generation of young influencers and celebrities who’ve spent the past few weeks weighing what other platforms they might migrate to if TikTok was killed off in the U.S.
