President Trump has again promised to delay enforcement of TikTok’s sell-by date, extending the video app’s effective deadline to sever ties with its China-based corporate owner by 75 days.
This will get extended until he can make it someone else’s problem.
Won’t this push it past the 100 day extension period congress did authorize in the original bill that was signed into law? Even if Trump said he won’t enforce the fine for Google, Apple, and Oracle for distributing the app, Democrats should make it clear they will go after those companies once Trump no longer controls the DoJ.
America is a full blown Oligarchy now. A congress or the law are just a nice facade.

Oh good, I’m glad we’re finding time for this as the global economy collapses.
