根据媒体报道，共和党总统候选人唐纳德·特朗普表示，尽管中国母公司字节跳动未能出售TikTok的美国资产并遭到禁止，他仍支持TikTok。

特朗普在周二发布的彭博商业周刊采访中表示：“我支持TikTok，因为你需要竞争。如果没有TikTok，你就只有Facebook和Instagram。” 特朗普此前曾将TikTok视为威胁，但他上个月已加入TikTok。

特朗普曾批评Facebook和Instagram的母公司Meta Platforms，因其在2021年1月6日国会山暴乱事件后惩罚他账号暂停两年。他在6月接受采访时表示，他永远不会支持禁止TikTok。

特朗普曾试图在2020年禁止TikTok和微信，但被法院阻止。2021年6月，拜登总统撤销了特朗普时代的一系列旨在禁止微信和TikTok的行政命令。

特朗普持有社交媒体公司特朗普媒体科技集团（DJT.O）的大部分股权，该公司运营竞争对手网络Truth Social。尽管其季度营收约为77万美元（约合人民币500万元），相当于两家美国星巴克店，但特朗普媒体的市值高达70亿美元。

华盛顿特区巴尔的摩哥利法院的听证会将把TikTok的命运置于2024年总统选举的最后几周之中。这项法律由拜登于4月24日签署，要求字节跳动在1月19日之前出售TikTok，否则将面临禁令。

白宫表示，出于国家安全考虑，希望看到基于中国的所有权结束，但不希望禁止TikTok。拜登的竞选团队于2月加入了TikTok。

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said he supports TikTok even as a potential ban looms if Chinese-parent company ByteDance fails to divest the short video app's U.S. assets.

"I’m for TikTok because you need competition. If you don’t have TikTok, you have Facebook and Instagram," Trump told Bloomberg BusinessWeek in an interview posted Tuesday. Trump previously called TikTok, which is used by 170 million Americans, a threat but then joined TikTok last month.

Trump, who has criticized Meta Platforms-owned Facebook and Instagram(META.O)for suspending him for two years in the wake of the deadly Capitol Hill riot on Jan. 6, 2021, told an interviewer in Junehe would never support a TikTok ban. TikTok declined to comment. As president, Trump tried to ban TikTok and Chinese-owned WeChat in 2020 but the move was blocked by the courts. In June 2021, President Joe Biden withdrew a series of Trump-era executive orders that sought to ban WeChat and TikTok. Trump holds a majority stake in social media company Trump Media and Technology Group (DJT.O)

that operates rival network Truth Social.Trump Media has a $7 billion market cap despite quarterly revenue of around $770,000- comparable to two U.S. Starbucks shops.

In September, a U.S. appeals court will hold oral arguments on legal challenges to a new law requiring China-based ByteDance to divest TikTok's U.S. assets by Jan. 19 or face a ban.

The hearing before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia will put the fate of TikTok in the middle of the final weeks of the 2024 presidential election.

Signed by Biden on April 24, the law gives ByteDance until Jan. 19 to sell TikTok or face a ban. The White House says it wants to see Chinese-based ownership ended on national security grounds, but not a ban on TikTok. Biden's campaign joined TikTok in February. 文章来源：
