Trump Joins TikTok And Calls It An 'Honor' — After Previously Trying To Ban The App
HuffPost
The former president, who signed an executive order to restrict the app in 2020, racked up tens of millions of views with his first video in less than a day.
Years after moving to ban the app, Donald Trump has officially joined TikTok.
The former president launched his account on Saturday, sharing a video of his appearance at a UFC fight alongside UFC CEO Dana White in Newark, New Jersey, that same day.
“The president is now on TikTok,” White declared in the video’s opening.
“It’s my honor,” Trump replied before the 13-second clip pivots to a mashup of moments from his night out.
By Sunday afternoon, Trump’s TikTok debut video racked up over 51.2 million views, while his account soared to 2.7 million followers.
