Trump Reverses Position On TikTok Ban?

Former President Donald Trump detailed why he had changed his position on banning TikTok, despite widespread support for a ban from members of Congress.

The former president outlined his thoughts about the social media company on CNBC on Monday morning, days after he publicly opposed a ban.

‘Frankly, there are a lot of people on TikTok that love it,’ he said during an interview on CNBC. 'There are a lot of young kids on TikTok who will go crazy without it. There are a lot of users, there’s a lot of good and there’s a lot of bad with TikTok
.'
The thing I don’t like is that without TikTok you’re going to make Facebook bigger and I consider Facebook to be an enemy of the people along with a lot of the media,’ Trump said.

He said that he still had national security and privacy concerns about TikTok but that he also had the same concerns about American companies.

‘I do believe that, and we have to very much go in to privacy and make sure that we are protecting the American people’s privacy and data rights,’ he said.

Trump argued that Facebook and other American social media platforms also shared data with China.
