- President Trump claims a “group of wealthy people” is prepared to purchase TikTok, potentially averting a U.S. ban.
- Trump stated he would disclose the identity of these buyers in about two weeks during a recent interview.
- This announcement follows the administration's third delay in implementing a law that would ban TikTok unless it secures a new U.S. owner.
