So China can ban Facebook and twitter but we can’t ban obvious security risks in tik tok and wechat Wtf

Lol get in line

拖字诀。

Yes sue Trump administration. Litigate the Mafia of the world. Stop them from legitimizing theft by abusing EO. Stop stealing China's technology forcefully and illegally.

Good luck with that 👍🏼

Sue balls ... they will end up pay additional to the attorney

Go TikTok!

chenweihua Means absolutely nothing . Suing is a national sport in the US. Oh , we are scared .

Who’ll file a class action lawsuit on behalf of the American ppl, against Congress 4harm due to dereliction of duty, incompetence, w/intent 2destroy our Republic? It’s no longer abt donald, it’s abt those refusing their duty 2protect the USA from a grossly unfit man in office.

Can Facebook or Google sue Chinese government?

So google, Reddit, Facebook, twitter and many others can sue the Chinese government for banning them.

Good luck with that!

TIKTOK please pay off the American family lawsuit with amount of $196b before you sue .

Add to the list people sueing him

So the CCP can ban our apps but we can't ban theirs? FuckTikTok FuckTheCCP

CIA already said that there is no evidence of Tiktok collecting data for Chinese gov

Good luck! In discovery they will have to show how TIKTOK and WeChat steal users data on phones and she it to COMMUNIST CHINA! 'BYTE DANCE' owns both apps and is a part of the COMMUNIST party of China! ALL Companies based in CHINA By Law MUST comply to give data!

What are you guys are failing to mention is the this is because of Google, Facebook and many other American owned apps that are ban in China.

China wants Joe

President has broad power over national security issues. The Supreme Court upheld the Trump’s ban on Muslim, then why wouldn’t they uphold the ban on TikTok? Don’t waste your time and money tiktok_us

The whole world should sue the Trump administration.

Time for all businesses shut down by Dictator Newsom to sue his corrupt a..

He does not like that other companies do what companies as Google Facebook Apple amazon are doing, steal information from people. America is done as a first power Now is Xina

I guarantee that Trump administration already had plenty of evidence to prove 'back door to steal private information', 'Antifa', 'election'... if TikTok is able to survive til Nov 3, 2020, both TikTok and WeChat will win.

LOL, get in line. The aftermath of his GREED is going to put in the poorhouse. Oh'wait, perhaps jail.

Will Tencent (the owner of Wechat) sue, too? As I know, Tencent banned millions of Wechat users around the world in last couple of months because they talked about the coronavirus and doubted Chinese Communist Party. So should the banned users sue Tencent if Tencent sue America?

Nice, typical CCP mentality. Keep digging the hole deeper and make the worst decision. The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

It's a little early for April Fools' Day

Very questionable whether he has authority to do that by executive order, and even more questionable whether he has authority to take action against businesses who do business with TikTok

Good luck with that!! realDonaldTrump has the authority for banning tiktok on national security concerns so you guys are f! tiktok_us TikTokSupport

Maybe some tiktok user won’t vote Trump again

RIP tiktok_us tell China hello from us

What gives foreign companies right use our laws against us. Embargo all Chinese apps for wasting courts time.

Ha ha! This presedente is immune to anything— he is not only above law he is above everything.

Yeah, it must FIRST SUE INDIA AND MOODY ADMIN

lol good luck ... they have already been called out for spying

But the teens made fun of me on TikTok! (And they saved lives in Tulsa. AmericanHeroes)

LMAO
