The White House now has a TikTok account


The White House has joined TikTok, the social media app that President Trump previously wanted to ban in the US.

The New York Times notes that it references a popular video edit of Creed, a boxing movie starring Michael B. Jordan, on the app. Trump's administration believes TikTok helped him win over young voters in the 2024 Presidential election, with the account he used to campaign having over 15 million followers. "President Trump's message dominated TikTok during his presidential campaign, and we're excited to build upon those successes and communicate in a way no other administration has before," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.
