President Trump continues to weigh in on the pending fate of TikTok in America saying that software giant Microsoft is in talks to acquire the social media app.

The President also said he hopes to see a “bidding war” for the sale of the app’s operations in America, according to report from the Associated Press.

“I like bidding wars because you make your best deals,” he told a gaggle of reporters on Monday evening while aboard Air Force One. When asked by one member of the press if Microsoft was one of the potential buyers, Mr. Trump responded with, “I would say yes.”

Officials with Microsoft declined to comment. TikTok did not respond to a request for comment to the news service.

Upon taking office, Mr. Trump extended the deadline for TikTok’s owner, the Communist Chinese company ByteDance, to find new ownership by 75 days. He has also expressed interest in the potential buyer to give America a 50 percent stake in the company. It’s unclear whether he has mean control of the app going to government or another entity in America.
