TikTok CEO Shou Chew met with president-elect Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Monday just weeks before the popular video app is expected to be banned in the US over national security concerns.
The private meeting, confirmed by a source familiar with the discussion, came just hours after Trump suggested he’d somehow try to reverse the ban to save TikTok, which he used to reach young voters on the campaign trail.
