<p>The White House launched an official TikTok account on Tuesday, taking advantage of its more than 150 million U.S. users to spread the messages of President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Trump has a soft spot for the popular app, crediting it with helping him gain support among young voters when he defeated Democrat Kamala Harris in the November 2024 presidential election.</p>
<p>Past intelligence assessments have said the short video app&#8217;s owners are beholden to the Chinese government and that it could be used to influence Americans.</p>
<p>“The Trump administration is committed to communicating the historic successes President Trump has delivered to the American people with as many audiences and platforms as possible,&#8221; White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said as the site went live.</p>
<p>&#8220;President Trump’s message dominated TikTok during his presidential campaign, and we’re excited to build upon those successes and communicate in a way no other administration has before,” she said.</p>
<p>The account, @whitehouse, began operation on Tuesday evening, with the aim of communicating the president&#8217;s policies, a White House official said.</p>
