But that would be a very unpopular move that might even be counter-productive while selling them Tiktok would just be handing them everything they want on a silver platter.

Do you think the current administration gives a shit if a move is unpopular? That’s their whole shtick.

The current administration is the one keeping TikTok alive in the USA. Trump has delayed the ban twice now.

The ban already happened. There was nothing massively unpopular about it. And whoever lets the exemption lapse doesn’t have to take the heat for it, since they can just blame it on Biden.

It was massively unpopular among the relevant demographic, the Tiktok user. Those are the ones you would want to reach obviously.
