President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would be open to the possibility of having his billionaire ally Elon Musk buy the U.S. operations of TikTok in his latest comments on the popular social media platform.

US President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would be supportive of the world's richest man and his close aide, Elon Musk, buying TikTok "if he wanted to".

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he would be in favor of Elon Musk or Larry Ellison purchasing TikTok and giving half ownership with the U.S. government.
