#4Completely expected. Trump doesn’t really have a good track record in coming up with legal executive orders, while Tiktok is completely in their rights to contest this order. And...judicial review is what sets the USA apart from China.

#9I'd start the questioning like this...
"On an average day how many kids under 13 do you think join TikTok without their parents knowledge?"
