    The only way his ban evasion will work is if they find a buyer in 90 days

      Or Trump keeps extending it or the newly formed Congress rolls back the law or the corrupt Supreme Court changes its mind or or or.

      They entire US government is a game of oligarchic Calvinball.

      Uhhh, Trump is literally the executive.

      He just commands the FCC or other authorities to ignore TikTok. He can extend this ban evasion for all 4 years if he wants.

      Congress and Supreme Court do not control the executive powers. The President does.

          Doesn’t matter; SCOTUS is controlled by “unitary executive theory” nutjobs now. The FCC can do whatever Trump wants it to do; no more, no less.

      As long as he can make money off of tiktok (either through videos or bribes) he’ll keep extending it.
