Trump admits TikTok can't legally pay US government as part of sale - Business Insider

Trump said Wednesday that he had told government lawyers he wanted "a big chunk of that money to go to the United States government because we made it possible," but that lawyers indicated "there's no way of doing that."on whether or how Trump could force such a payment, noting that there's no legal provision explicitly allowing it and that the US bans other countries from engaging in similar pay-to-play schemes.

The president appeared to not consider the matter fully settled, however, telling reporters: "We're looking into that right now." Multiple reports have surfaced over the past few weeks as several hopeful buyers have raced to reach a deal with TikTok's Beijing-based parent company ByteDance ahead of a September 20 deadline.

Trump said Wednesday he's being "briefed" on the deal Thursday morning, adding that any proposal needs to be "100% on national security" and that he's "not prepared to sign off on anything" at this point.Sign up for a daily selection of our best stories daily based on your reading preferences.

I believe the correct position is to be against Facebook's buying Instagram on antitrust -AND- to be against Tiktok operating in USA when China blocks all our our apps. I am a democrat. Both issues have nothing to do with Trump
