Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said in an interview on Monday: "Facebook is stronger without TikTok, and I think Facebook is the enemy of the people."。"
Trump said the TikTok platform "has a lot of good and a lot of bad."。"There are a lot of young kids on TikTok who would go crazy without it.。"
Trump was President of the United States from 2017 to 2021.。In 2020, the Trump administration tried unsuccessfully to get TikTok removed from the US app store.。Later, Trump ordered ByteDance to sell TikTok within 90 days, an effort that also failed。
Now, U.S. lawmakers are ramping up their efforts again, suggesting that ByteDance be stripped of TikTok。Current President Joe Biden says he will sign a bill to disable the app if Congress passes it。
Recently, Trump has softened his tone, saying he fears disabling TikTok will only make Facebook stronger.。
In the interview on Monday, Trump said he believes TikTok still poses a national security risk, but he has turned his attention to Facebook, noting that the platform has similar issues with privacy and security.。
Trump said: "If you disable TikTok, Facebook and other platforms, but mainly Facebook will be a big beneficiary."。He added: "I think Facebook has been terrible for our country, especially when it comes to elections.。"
