Contributing sentiments towards policy:

69% : Trump told NBC News that he "most likely" would give TikTok the extension after his inauguration.
55% : Meanwhile, a Pew Research Center survey conducted in July and August said public support for a ban had declined to 32% from 50% in March 2023.
50% : Trump has credited TikTok with helping him win the support of more young voters in last year's election, but he wasn't always a fan.
50% : Trump told "Meet the Press" moderator Kristen Welker in a phone interview Saturday that if he gives TikTok the 90-day extension, it will "probably" be announced on Monday.
39% : Also last month, European Union regulators opened an investigation into whether TikTok breached the EU's online safety and fairness rules by failing to prevent alleged Russian interference in Romania's presidential election.
36% : The ban's timing has complicated matters, perhaps in TikTok's favor: the outgoing Biden administration reiterated Saturday that it considers the law's implementation and enforcement to be the responsibility of Trump, who takes office on Monday and has pledged to "save" the app.
