Trump’s TikTok Save: $14B Drama, Oval Office Cameos Included

In the 2024 sequel nobody asked for, Donald Trump made his TikTok debut—sprinkling irony like confetti from the Oval Office. Claiming he 'saved TikTok' (the same app he once tried to ban), Trump boasts that young TikTokers now owe him 'big.' Meanwhile, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison lurks behind a $14 billion deal that’s still about as solid as expired milk. The White House said Oracle will 'audit and retrain' TikTok's algorithm, like a disappointed parent teaching a teen to behave—a tricky task since China still plays hard to get. Trump’s flip-flop during a 2024 bipartisan TikTok ban bill shows he's the Houdini of policy reversals, waving executive orders to stall enforcement even though the law never gave him the magic wand. Fresh viral content served with a side of chaos, one TikTok at a time.
