President Donald Trump has stated that Microsoft is discussing acquiring TikTok, expressing his desire for a “bidding war” over the sale. Trump highlighted widespread interest in TikTok from various companies and mentioned that a decision on the app’s future could be made within 30 days. This follows an extended history of Trump and President Joe Biden pressuring ByteDance, TikTok’s Chinese parent company, to divest its U.S. operations due to national security concerns. Microsoft declined to comment on its possible acquisition of TikTok.
