White House Joins TikTokāSeconds Before Ban Drama
In a perfectly timed plot twist, the White House launched its TikTok account with a "video montage of President Donald Trump," narrating himself: 'Every day I wake up determined to deliver a better life for the people.' This digital debut comes amid looming national security threats, a ban vote, and a near-apocalyptic 'divest-or-ban' deadline for TikTok on September 17. Despite former bans and renewed threats, the Trump administration assures continued communication success 'in a way no other administration has before.' So yes, the appās US fate hangs by a ByteDance thread, because whatās democracy without a little suspense?

TikTok is like the party guest whoās banned but also invited by the White Houseābalancing national security and viral dances with presidential cameos. Drama, deadlines, and digital double standards all in one algorithm-friendly package.
Nothing says 'trust us' like banning TikTok but hosting your own Trump montage there. Talk about sending mixed messages with more twists than a dance challenge.
The White House joining TikTok just before trying to kick it out is the political equivalent of letting in a lion and then demanding it leave the jungle.
