The Trump administration has established a TikTok presence via an official @WhiteHouse account despite lacking an agreement with ByteDance regarding the app's future in the US. The administration's failure to finalize a deal raises questions about Trump's commitment, particularly as a law signed by President Biden mandates the sale of ByteDance's stake or a ban. Trump had previously tried to enforce a TikTok ban but has since delayed actions multiple times under shifting political circumstances, including potential negotiations with Chinese leaders.
Despite failing to secure a deal with ByteDance, the Trump administration has launched a new TikTok account to promote its accomplishments, highlighting a contradictory stance on the app.
While Trump initially attempted to ban TikTok in 2020, deadlines and enforcement delays have characterized ongoing negotiations, complicating the administration's approach to US operations for the app.
