President Trump, who said to ban social media tic Talk in the United States, stepped back in time saying that American companies could buy tic Talk. Before the presidential election, it seems to be a conscious measure of the votes of the younger people who use a lot of tick talk.

President Trump has stepped down to ban China's social media tick talk right now.

US companies, including currently negotiating, have stipulated that TicTok should be acquired by September 15th.

If you don't become an American company until then, you're going to withdraw Tick Talk.

[Trump/President of the United States: It would be better not to buy 30% of Tictalk's stake, but to buy the whole. I set a deadline to negotiate on or about September 15th, and until then, if I can't negotiate, I will kick TickTalk out of the US.] There

are over 160 million Americans who downloaded the TickTalk app.

In particular, many young people in their 20s and 30s seem to have stepped back, fearing that it would be a bad news ahead of the presidential election if it is forbidden to use it right away.

In Tic-Tok, there are lines of video criticizing President Trump's ban on use.

TickTalk's parent company, Bite Dance, can move its headquarters from Beijing to London, UK, according to The Sun.

As suspicions are constantly raised in connection with the Chinese government, they are planning to move the headquarters.

China's Foreign Ministry has criticized the US government for providing no evidence and convicting and intimidating Tic-Talk against market economic principles.
