TikTok will likely be back, even if it is erased from U.S. app stores for a period.

Which is set to happen later this month, with peru b2b leads TikTok given till January 19th to enact a sale to a U.S. company, or face a ban in the nation. Trump’s team has already filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court to extend this deadline, in order to give Trump time to explore other outcomes after he’s inaugurated on January 20th. That plea hasn’t been approved as yet, but theoretically at least, that could still provide a lifeline for the app, if Trump feels passionately enough to oppose the original Senate-approved bill.

Though even then, his avenues for doing so are limited. But still, with the deadline fast approaching, TikTok’s clearly pinning at least some hope in Trump taking executive action, and saving it from being booted out of the U.S. entirely.

The most likely outcome, then, could be that TikTok is returned to the U.S. at a later stage, after the Trump team has had a chance to negotiate a new deal. How that would be structured remains to be seen, but right now, it seems unlikely that Trump will have the time to be able to take action in TikTok’s favor to avoid immediate action.

But

And with Trump having such a strong presence in the app, you can bet that it will remain front of mind for him, and he takes office later this month.
