In a recent turn of events, it seems like the Biden administration’s cozy relationship with the Chinese Communist Party-owned social media platform TikTok is starting to bite them in the backside. Despite widespread concerns from Republicans and even some Democrats about the potential influence of TikTok on American users, President Biden and his cronies have been brushing off questions and dragging their feet on addressing these valid worries.
White House in Disarray As TikTok Turns on Biden

Instead of addressing the growing concerns, the Biden administration has been doubling down on their collaboration with TikTok influencers to push their own political agenda to the younger generation. They’ve been turning a blind eye to the worries raised by politicians and are instead investing more time and effort into using the app to promote their policies. But as luck would have it, TikTok users – who happen to be young potential voters – are now turning against Biden.
It appears that the president’s attempt to cozy up to a social media platform controlled by a regime responsible for all sorts of awful things is not paying off. TikTok users, who were supposed to be a key demographic for Biden, are now expressing dissatisfaction with his policies, and there’s not much Biden or his team can do about it. It’s like trying to get the toothpaste back into the tube once it’s out – nearly impossible.
The cherry on top is that the Biden administration is now in a panic, desperately trying to salvage their sinking popularity among TikTok users. They are scrambling to counteract the negative sentiment with their own propaganda. They’re working with content creators to spread a more favorable message about the economy, but it’s an uphill battle.
And let’s not forget the delicious irony in all this. The very people who control TikTok – the Chinese Communist Party – are the ones who ultimately decide what content Americans see on the platform. It’s like letting the fox guard the henhouse. The Biden administration thought they could use TikTok to gain a political advantage, but it looks like they’ve been outmaneuvered by the CCP, and it’s coming back to haunt them.
As if that weren’t enough, recent polls show that Biden’s support among young voters has taken a nosedive, and he’s now trailing behind Trump in that demographic. Clearly, the administration’s efforts to win over young voters through TikTok have backfired spectacularly.
It’s a cautionary tale of the perils of getting too cozy with a dubious social media platform. It seems like the Biden administration’s fondness for TikTok has come home to roost, and there’s no amount of scrambling that can undo the damage.
