Sun 02 June 2024:
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has made a surprising move by joining TikTok, the Chinese-owned social media platform he sought to ban during his presidency.
Trump’s account, @realdonaldtrump, garnered over 450,000 followers shortly after he posted a launch video Saturday night, featuring his appearance at an Ultimate Fighting Championship event in New Jersey.
This development comes as ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company, battles a U.S. law mandating its sale by January due to national security concerns. Despite past attempts to ban TikTok, Trump acknowledged earlier this year that a ban might negatively impact young users and unfairly benefit Meta’s Facebook, which he has often criticized.
Interestingly, President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign has been active on TikTok since February.
