Former President Trump has filed a brief opposing the potential ban of TikTok in the United States. Trump argues that he possesses the necessary expertise and political will to negotiate a resolution that addresses national security concerns while preserving the platform. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments on January 10th after a bipartisan law passed Congress requiring TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to sell to an American company or face a ban.
While the brief did not directly address the legal question at hand—whether banning the platform for the some 170 million Americans who use it violates their First Amendment rights to free speech—it noted that “at this juncture,” Trump “opposes banning TikTok in the United States.
” Trump’s more recent support for the application is a shift from when, while still president in 2020, he unsuccessfully attempted to ban the platform, citing national security concerns. Federal courts halted his efforts. Despite expressing disdain for the Chinese-owned app, he isn’t the only government leader who has used it to reach voters and campaign.
