He has a major donor that owns part of TikTok. He'll save it for corrupt reasons, ignore the real concerns about it, then move on.

He has a major donor who owns part of Bytedance. They’re not losing their investment with this ban.
1. Then why is that investor so aggressively against the forced divestment? (not a ban)
2. Bytedance will certainly lose value if its main product loses one of its main markets.
He also has a major donor who owns Meta, and a major donor who owns Twitter/X.
He also has a daughter who is the only American to hold patents in China without having to license IP to a Chinese company.
