With a U.S. ban on TikTok set to take effect in less than a month, President-elect Donald Trump expressed interest in keeping the app available, according to Reuters.
Speaking at an event in Phoenix, Arizona, on Sunday, Trump told supporters, “We’re going to have to think about this because, you know, we’ve used TikTok, and the response was incredible—billions of views, billions and billions. They showed me a chart, and it was a record. It was beautiful to see, and as I looked at it, I thought, ‘Maybe we should keep this thing around for a little while.’”
On Monday, Trump reportedly held a meeting with TikTok’s CEO and later shared that he has developed a “warm spot” for the app.
