President Donald Trump said Saturday he's given his 'blessing' to a proposed deal between Oracle and Walmart for the U.S. operations of TikTok.

"I have given the deal my blessing," Trump told reporters on Saturday."If they get it done, that’s great. If they don’t, that’s OK too."

Trump said the proposed deal will result in a new company likely to be based in Texas and under the control of U.S.-based Oracle and Walmart. Trump has been targeting TikTok, a video app popular with younger people, as well as WeChat, another Chinese-owned app. The dispute over the two apps is the latest flashpoint in the rising tensions between the world’s two largest economies.

A total ban on the use of TikTok would follow on Nov. 12, but Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said Friday on Fox Business News that access to that app may be possible if certain safeguards are put into place. "At the President's direction, we have taken significant action to combat China's malicious collection of American citizens' personal data, while promoting our national values, democratic rules-based norms, and aggressive enforcement of U.S.

i knew tik tok wasn't getting banned

Ut oh realDonaldTrump, those kids have punked you yet again, and here’s the good news, they vote.

Give Asshole Trump about three days, and he will be bitching on Twitter, about WalMart!

I know Lord... it had to happen since Americans haven't witness a US Trade Surplus since 1975 and WalmartInc Global Procurement Offices being in Communist China while Walmart puts less 5% foreign in all its China stores.. Yeap! POTUS it makes perfect cents.. but not sense

Amazing press reports him acting like mob boss as if it's perfectly normal. All who accuse every program meant to help public - like social security - of being socialism need to asked how companies needing the blessing of potus to run their business isn't some form of communism.

lol trusting your data to walmart, lol

King blessing it , so it must be lots of money

trump says Walmart is an American company but most of their stuff in the store comes from China or other countries!🤦‍♀️😂

Just don’t understand what WalMart has to gain

Wonder how many hundreds of millions was stuffed in trump’s pocket as bribery to make him agree

Awww... how sweet of Trump to give his 'blessing'. Last I checked, the POTUS approval wasn't needed for a business deal.

“I need you to do me a favor though.”

Oracle and Walmart. Makes sense. LarryEllison screws every customer he has. There goes TikTok

Yeeeeees

WalMart?

But isn't walmart own by china?

So glad Tik Tok isn't going anywhere here in Canada. Some of y'all need maps to find your dicks yet you're running 'things.'

Mary Trump: ‘Nobody tells as many lies on purpose’ as President Trump“What he lies about is dangerous,” Mary Trump says of Pres. Trump. “I really do hope that the debates do not become yet another forum for Donald to tell his lies and spin facts to favor him.” Trump will, as usual, come to the debates unprepared and try to wing his endless idiotic spin. It's old and worn out and won't convince any undecided voters. His 'decided' lemming voters wont be swayed by anything negative about him. They are a lost cause I just hope Donna Brasille doesn't slip Biden the questions beforehand. :) He's going to lie 'bigly' and his base will lap it up like dogs drinking antifreeze. He repeats his lies over and over until the truth is hardly discernable and everything is in confused chaos. It's pretty hard to watch. All I can do is vote for Biden.

Trump ally Lindsey Graham thinks the President should release tax returnsAsked if President Trump should release his tax returns, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina told CNN, 'Yeah, I think everybody should. I've said that for a long time.' Trump can’t do his borrowing from US banks, so he is in debt to foreign entities such as Deutsch Bank and other shady overseas sources (likely oligarchs). He is also obsessive about concealing everything he can about his finances, refusing to show his tax returns. Hmm... Time to safe own skin, senate election too close to call. Trump is a liability. Calls to mind a line Wilfred Brimley in Absence of Malice, 'So what were planning on doing after government service, Mr. Graham?'

Trump says a Harris vice presidency is ’no way for a woman’ to become president“That’s no way for a woman to become the first president, that’s for sure,” President Trump said during a campaign rally in Wisconsin, referring to a possible Harris vice presidency. He's right. We expected one to walk through the front door four years ago, after that election that Putin helped him steal. He’s in rare form even for trump tonight. Might need to up his meds. That’s no way for a Texan to be the first President from Texas, coming in the back door, said no one about Lyndon Johnson.
