Trump Delays TikTok Deal, Dangles It Over China Tariffs | “We’ll Wait Till..”— Trade War Chess Match

U.S. President Donald Trump has thrown a wrench into the TikTok deal once again, signaling that the fate of the wildly popular app now depends on the outcome of ongoing U.S.-China trade negotiations.
