🚨 TikTok DENIES TRUMP'S MEMECOIN PURCHASE! 🤯 A CONGRESSMAN ACCUSES WITHOUT EVIDENCE AND SPEAKS OF A $300 MILLION BRIBE? 💥📱
📢 The Chinese social media platform, TikTok, has furiously come out to deny the explosive accusations from a democratic congressman, Brad Sherman from California!, who claimed that its owners were buying Donald Trump's official memecoin ($TRUMP ) for $300 million! 🤯 TikTok Policy's official account on X did not hold back, calling Sherman's statements "clearly false and irresponsible". 😲
The controversy arises amid news that Trump signed another executive order to delay the ban or sale of TikTok, giving them 90 more days. Sherman, a well-known critic of cryptocurrencies who in 2019 even called for a total ban (he worries they might displace the dollar!), argued that this delay is illegal, as the law only allows for an extension. 😡
Sherman's accusations seem to stem from reports about GD Culture Group, a company that produces content for TikTok and announced in May plans to purchase $300 million in the memecoin of #Trump and #Bitcoin . Although there are no known formal links between GD Culture Group and TikTok or its parent company ByteDance, the connection in content production generated confusion. 🧐
The congressman went further, alleging that "Trump creates 'Trump Coins' at no cost, which means that it is simply a $300 million bribe that goes directly into his pocket". 🤑 However, this claim has been met with skepticism both from TikTok and the online community, who question Sherman's reliability and the possibility of creating a cryptocurrency at no cost. Some even suggested he conduct a survey of his constituents regarding the TikTok ban! 🗳️
🤔 Do you think these accusations are a genuine attempt to expose corruption and violations of the law? 👇💬
