Ok, but this ban isn't just for tiktok, you realize that right? If Trump wants to consider UK and adversary he could ban the BBC app as well? This wasn't just a tiktok ban it's a ban on ALL "foreign adversary" apps. Nobody gives a shit you never used it.
Disclaimer: I think Trump is a criminal asshole.
Technically, Trump didn't ban anything (this time). Biden did. Trump's just getting credit for bringing it back.
Also, I don't give a shit what you think everyone else gives a shit about.
edit: actually, to clarify; Neither of them banned TikTok. Congress passsed a law, and the Supreme Court upheld it. Biden just didn't block it. And Trump can't magically unblock it, he can just delay it by 90 days.
