President Donald Trump said Friday that he would extend the deadline for TikTok to find a U.S. buyer for 75 days.
On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order pushing the January deadline for TikTok to divest to April 5. The president had tapped Vice President JD Vance to lead the administration’s effort to find a U.S. buyer.
“My Administration has been working very hard on a Deal to SAVE TIKTOK, and we have made tremendous progress. The Deal requires more work to ensure all necessary approvals are signed, which is why I am signing an Executive Order to keep TikTok up and running for an additional 75 days,” Trump wrote on Truth Social while in South Florida on Friday.
