- Trump has joined TikTok — nearly four years after he sought to ban the app in the US as president.
- "It's my honor," the ex-president said in his first video.
- Both Trump and Biden are looking to reach young voters through the popular video-sharing app.
As president, Donald Trump wanted to ban TikTok for its alleged ties to the Chinese government.
But on Saturday, the ex-president became one of the platform's newest users, expanding his online reach to young people ahead of November.
By early Sunday afternoon, Trump had amassed 2.1 million followers and his first video — taken at an Ultimate Fighting Championship event in Newark last night — had amassed over 2.5 million likes.
