Democrat Sen. Mark Warner Admits Trump Was Right About TikTok Being an ‘Enormous Threat’

The senator told Bream, “as painful as it is for me to say, if Donald Trump was right and we could’ve taken action then, that’d have been a heckuva lot easier than trying to take action in November of 2022.”

Trump had considered banning the app during his presidency but was subjected to significant pushback from the left.

The social media platform’s parent company, ByteDance, has ties to the Chinese Communist Party.

“Did Washington simply not listen because they didn’t like the messenger then and what can we do now?” Bream asked.

“Well, I think Donald Trump was right,” Warner said. “I mean, TikTok is an enormous threat.”

Warner said TikTok is “a massive collector of information,” including from children.
