With a US TikTok ban scheduled to take effect in less than a month, President-elect Donald Trump said Sunday that he’d like to keep the app around, according to Reuters.

“We’re going to have to start thinking because, you know, we did go on TikTok, and we had a great response with billions of views, billions and billions of views,” Trump told supporters at an event in Phoenix, Arizona. “They brought me a chart, and it was a record, and it was so beautiful to see, and as I looked at it, I said, ‘Maybe we gotta keep this sucker around for a little while.’”

Trump reportedly met with TikTok’s CEO on Monday and said afterward that he has a “warm spot” in his heart for the app.

President Joe Biden signed a bill in April that requires TikTok’s parent company ByteDance to sell the short-form video app by January 19 of next year (one day before Trump takes office) or else see it banned. 

ByteDance is fighting the bill in court, and the Supreme Court has agreed hear arguments on January 10.
