Donald Trump returned to TikTok on Monday by telling young Americans they "owe him big." Why? "I saved TikTok," the president said in his first post on the social platform since the 2024 election.
In September, after many ban deadline extensions, Trump signed an executive order that facilitates the sale of Chinese-owned TikTok to American investors. In the president's post-signing TikTok post, filmed from the Oval Office, Trump declared, "To all of those young people of TikTok, I saved TikTok, so you owe me big."
On Late Night, Seth Meyers responded to the president's post with a few jokes. "Great news for anybody who likes their TikToks 75 minutes long," the late night host said on Wednesday.
"President Trump addressed 'the young people of TikTok.'" Meyers went on. "Dude, again, you're 79. They're all young people to you. You're so old you could have addressed the 'young people of Facebook.'"
