The Democrats truly are the party of China. They are communist, authoritarian dictators just like the CCP. Gretchen Whitmer proves it as she defends China’s spying social media app TikTok and refuses to stop using it. You deserve her Michigan.
Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Sunday made excuses for using the Chinese-owned social media app TikTok, despite Congress and most states partially or fully banning the app on government-issued devices.
Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Whitmer was pressed by host Jake Tapper on why she continues to use the app after concerns about data privacy sparked politicians across the country to take action.
“You’re active on TikTok,” Tapper began. “And I get it, it’s fun. But I deleted my app from my phone because so many people kept coming on my show saying, delete it, delete it, delete it. The Chinese government has access to your data. Is it appropriate for you to be on TikTok when the FBI says it’s a national security concern?”
“We use TikTok on one device that has nothing else on it,” Whitmer responded. “It is a communication tool. We don’t do it because it’s fun, although some people think what I put out there can be fun on occasion… But the point is, we have it on one device that has no access to anything else, because so many people get their information that way.”
