President Trump said he would give social-video platform TikTok another extension of a deadline to sell to a US owner if it was needed to reach a deal. Trump said he has “a little warm spot” in his heart for the popular app and he would like to complete a transaction that would keep it available for Americans. Trump has already extended a deadline for TikTok’s China-based parent company ByteDance Ltd. to divest the US operations for another 75 days in April. He said there may not be a need for another reprieve. He has previously indicated China’s objections to his new tariffs stalled a deal to sell off the US TikTok arm, which Beijing has to sign off on.
