TikTok is about to be under new management, it seems.

It seems they're pretty eager to please the Prez, too ... saying,"Microsoft fully appreciates the importance of addressing the President’s concerns. It is committed to acquiring TikTok subject to a complete security review and providing proper economic benefits to the United States, including the United States Treasury."

In other words, they're gonna make sure they put"America first" here ... both on the security side and the economic side. Music to the administration's ears, no doubt. There's more though -- Microsoft says it's planning to complete their discussions with the China-run TikTok team no later than September 15 -- and in the meantime ... they'll continue to brief Uncle Sam and co. on where they stand. Sounds like the feds are onboard with this.

That's hostile takeover

America first right? Take others dreams and designs then blame it on safety.

Pues!!!! Wow!!! For this he acts and reacts fast!!!! But with the pandemic is the total opposite!!! American lives are being destroyed!!! American are jobless!!! Vote Blue Nov. PrayForTheUSA

Got all y’all hating on trump when he had it figured out cry babies trump 2020

Grumpy stupid old man.

Fantastic pic👍🏽🤣

This is the wrong approach, should just issue a outright ban to Tiktok to signal US does not want to be perceived as looting valuable assets and those want to get into bed with CCP companies will risk to lose their marbles.

Name a price 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Why are they letting him think he can just unilaterally band anything he chooses? Where are these patriots who don't believe in big government or dictatorships? Why are they silent?

Ughl!! Pedophile narcissists get to spy on us daily

Fuck yes. Trump2020. This is business at its best. Buy them out and let them continue rather then band them.

Why does trump get a say in who buys this app.. he’s such a crook

So a HUGE corporate monopoly chats with the president before they purchase a company? Judging by what's happening in the world today, it all makes sense to me... and how about those space aliens?

hiro_hamakawa ? What this is crazy

Microsoft is in bed with him? WTF?

Who honestly cares? Focus on that 2nd stimulus. Im tryna cop the PS5

Why does he care about TikzTok? I must have missed his reasons behind this. Is it a threat to something?

Is that a good thing?

Sounds good ... Microsoft would be FAR better off pursuing an app tham a vaccine... b3cause it will be a cold day in hell before anything that Bill Gates is involved with is injected into my body.

Why doesn't Micosoft just start a new ap called tok-tic. Seems designing a new app wouldbe better than giving China money. Doesn't anyonethink this through! Just because Trumps involved I wouldn't use the ap! Boycott Trumps anything! Even his China made swag sold at rallies!

How many perverts work for the government spying on Americans and our children!?

No fucking way this ends well.

Classic trump. Make a big deal out of something he created. Then swoop in and 'save' the day.

No stop ban this Trash App

Yayyyy get it away from those pesky Chinese... Although they now have y'all details

Still no word from TMZ about the 400k people tweeting BillClintonIsAPedo and how Twitter has already made it stop trending. The top trender had 50k, while this had 400k+ and is now below 20. 🌻

Then why block them

FUCK TIKTOK, FUCK MICROSOFT, FUCK BILL GATES. Bill Gates name was on that list of flight logs to pedo island also. 🌻

Just stop not gone happen

It will just die like Snapchat

Maybe he should worry more about the pandemic and health of “his country”, and less about an app where girls shake their asses to Disney songs....

Insider trading?

Chinese will gladly sell it and create something similar within hours

Nice, the braless nipples continue. Bounce them cheeks....

What if this was all a plot for Microsoft to buy Tik Tok with minimal red tape?

I can’t see much difference in management by a Chinese company and Miscrsoft the king of privacy invasion.

It’s ok Microsoft hasn’t actually made much of anything worth wild in a couple decades! Every time they purchase a product (Which Most if their crap is) they will Fck it up like they always do! BanTikTok

Well well well

Nice! Now the US government can be the one spying on us through TikTok! Nice job!! 👍🏻

Trump banned TikTok because China was stealing all your information you twits. Anything to bash a President that's looking out for your best interests.

Well I guess tik tok is still gonna be around that’s why Microsoft wanted to have rights to it so trump doesn’t stop it lol

As matter of fact, non of the companies in American wouldn’t even take tik Tok, regardless of negotiation or so called “punishment” to respond at the virus or trying to shut up about the truth they know happening in America during this crisis.

👏👍👌

BAN THE KKK

Zip Damn Fool

That makes it even worse. Windows is the worst and has backdoors built for the NSA. Now, all American data will be collected. China couldn't do it, but Microsoft will give all US Intelligence your data. What a bunch of pathetic fools. 🙄🤣🤦🏿‍♂️

And it’s dead lol

Trump and Bill Gates, I don't trust it.

Trump's taken more action on TikTok than he has on Russia for placing bounties on U.S troops.

soon to be worthless , bid low BillGates

Trust me if Microsoft buys TikTok the world will mount a movement to boycott it forever. Enough of manipulation.

🤣🤣

All right wing controlled

That’s bad news dudes

This man is worried about everything BUT what he NEEDS to be worried about, like this pandemic 🤦🏻‍♂️. So over his ass. Can’t wait until November 3rd.

China likes this

Please just get rid of it

An app is concerning him more than the pandemic, a pandemic he dont even know how to handle cuz hes a kid lmao

He banning an app before semi automatic rifles and explosea, youre worried about the wrong tik tok

Extortion to buy TIK TOK. Same shit dif day in Trump World. TrumpCrimeSyndicate 🤡

ArrestBillGates

That is the most 'evil villain' title I've ever read

Ban if it’s a Chinese company. If it’s a US company, USA can monitor its movement w/ regard to safety and privacy of everyone not just Americans. It’s a win for Trump & USA.

Nobody on this planet listens to dRumpf.

This is still a bad thing either way. Because if Trump changes his mind, you know there is something in it for him. So either way, Tik Tok is dead now.

Partnership

He is a bully.
