Trump says there's a TikTok buyer that he'll reveal in ‘about two weeks'
President Donald Trump said in an interview that aired Sunday there is a 'buyer for TikTok,' teasing an announcement to come in 'about two weeks.' 'We have a buyer for TikTok by the way. I think I'll need probably China approval, and I think President Xi will probably do it,' the president said on Fox News' 'Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo.' Asked who the buyer is going to be, Trump said, 'I'll tell you in about two weeks.' 'It's a group of very wealthy people,' the president added. It's been about five months since a law requiring TikTok to be banned in the United States unless it was sold off by its China-based parent company, ByteDance, technically went into effect. But thanks to President Donald Trump's promises not to enforce the law, neither of those things have happened, aside from an approximately 14-hour blackout in January. Trump has instead signed three orders delaying enforcement on the ban. As a June 19 deadline to enforce the sale-or-ban law approached earlier this month, Trump granted TikTok a 90-day extension. The deadline for its parent company ByteDance to hand over control of TikTok's US operations is now September 17. The delay raised questions about the status of a deal that could secure TikTok's long-term future in the US. The Chinese government has offered little public indication that it would be willing to approve a sale beyond suggesting that any deal could not include TikTok's 'algorithm,' which has been called the app's secret sauce. In April, a deal that would have transferred majority control of TikTok's US operations to American ownership was nearly finalized. But it fell apart after Trump announced additional tariffs on China, forcing the president to announce another 75-day delay to keep the app operational in the United States. 'There are key matters to be resolved. Any agreement will be subject to approval under Chinese law,' TikTok parent company ByteDance said after Trump's tariff policy stalled progress on the deal in April. Former president Joe Biden last year signed the sale-or-ban law last year to go into effect January 19. TikTok briefly took itself offline, sparking outcry from creators, but quickly came back after Trump signed his first order delaying the ban's enforcement by 75 days. It was one of his first acts as president, made in hopes of reaching a deal to keep the app 'alive.'

Trump teases a buyer for TikTok: A group of 'very wealthy people'
President Donald Trump said in an interview aired Sunday that the US had found a buyer for TikTok. Trump told Fox News the buyer was a group of "very wealthy people." The president has repeatedly delayed the enforcement of a TikTok divest-or-ban law. President Donald Trump says the United States has found a buyer for TikTok. In an interview with Fox News that aired on Sunday, the president said the buyer was a group of "very wealthy people" that he would reveal in "about two weeks" — his favorite timeline. Trump added that he would "probably" need China's approval for a sale to go ahead, but appeared confident that Chinese leader Xi Jinping would back it. Trump has stepped in three times so far to extend a deadline for TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to find a new buyer or effectively cease operating in the United States. An executive order on June 19 extended the deadline to September 17. In a statement at the time, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration wanted to ensure US users would continue to be able to access the app. "As he has said many times, President Trump does not want TikTok to go dark," she said. "This extension will last 90 days, which the Administration will spend working to ensure this deal is closed so that the American people can continue to use TikTok with the assurance that their data is safe and secure." TikTok missed its original January 19 deadline and briefly shut down for millions of Americans before Trump intervened. "Sorry, TikTok isn't available right now," a message on the app read for affected users. "A law banning TikTok has been enacted in the US. Unfortunately, that means you can't use TikTok for now." A number of high-profile figures have previously expressed interest in purchasing the platform, including "Shark Tank" star Kevin O'Leary and former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin. Trump also previously said he would support his once-staunch ally, Elon Musk, if he wanted to buy the app. Musk said in January that he has been "against a TikTok ban for a long time," adding that he believed it "goes against freedom of speech." However, the Tesla CEO told the WELT Economic Summit later that month that he had not made a bid for the app. "I don't have any plans for what would I do if I had TikTok," he added.
