Contributing sentiments towards policy:

75% : Now Trump thinks TikTok is good, actually.
53% : The Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, passed earlier this year, gave ByteDance nine months to reach an agreement to divest itself of TikTok over concerns that the platform is operated by a firm that has ties to the Chinese government.
45% : At this point, even getting the Supreme Court to say it needs more time to hear arguments would constitute a win for TikTok as it would potentially pass the buck to Trump.
38% : Trump seems to be at least open to this idea, in part because he believes the platform played a part in his electoral victory.
37% : And all the company needs is a couple of extra days for Trump to settle back into the White House and issue some form of intervention on the ban.
34% : Company CEO Shou Zi Chew made a trip down to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump earlier this week and plead his case for blocking the ban.
24% : Does it matter that Trump is the person who started the ball rolling on a ban in the first place?
