#Trump Delays TikTok Ban#
Hot Topic Overview
Overview
Trump is considering delaying the TikTok ban and may issue an executive order on the day before his inauguration to suspend enforcement of the TikTok "sell or ban" law for 60 to 90 days. The decision may be linked to Trump's more than 14 million followers on TikTok and his desire to fulfill his campaign promise to "save TikTok." However, Trump's use of executive orders has raised eyebrows among some legal observers who argue that Trump's words cannot completely overcome a law passed by Congress with overwhelming bipartisan support.

Analysis
Trump is considering delaying the TikTok ban and issuing an executive order to prevent its "sale or ban" for 60 to 90 days, according to The Washington Post. Trump is reportedly considering issuing an executive order after taking office to suspend the TikTok "sell or ban" act. Trump hopes to sign the executive order shortly after the deadline, making the process a dramatic play. However, Trump's strategy of using executive orders has raised doubts from some legal observers, who argue that Trump's words cannot fully overcome the law passed by Congress with overwhelming bipartisan support. Alan Rosenstein, former National Security Advisor at the US Department of Justice, believes that executive orders are not magic documents and TikTok will still be banned. It is worth noting that The Washington Post's previous major reports on tariffs were criticized by Trump himself as "fake news."
