Is Trump Caving to China on TikTok?

The Washington Post on January 15 reported that President-elect Donald Trump is thinking of issuing an executive order suspending the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act. The law is often and incorrectly referred to as the “TikTok ban.”

Trump has no power to suspend the law by executive order. In any event, a delay in enforcement, even in accordance with the law’s provisions, would be a grave mistake.
