Thiessen: China Is Showing Us Their True Colors Using TikTok to Attack Trump over Tariffs
EXCERPT:
THIESSEN: "Well, they are showing us right now what their true colors are, because they're using this platform to attack Trump over his trade policies with China. You know, one of the arguments of the people who disagree with Donald Trump, who want to shut it down now, and he is standing there saying, 'I want to see if we can cut a deal to save it,' one of their arguments is, if we ever get into a conflict with China, they will weaponize it because they can control the algorithm, they can control what people are watching, they’re following — they're gathering information on them to know what influences them, and now they are weaponizing it against Trump in the trade war. Well, they are proving the point of all the critics of TikTok by doing that. So this is a really bad miscalculation on the part of TikTok."
