BREAKING: Trump’s Massive TikTok Deal Could Change Everything - Here’s What Walmart Learned Last Time

EXCLUSIVE: Inside sources reveal Trump is about to sign the deal that could reshape America’s digital future - and it mirrors what Walmart tried to do years ago

President Donald Trump is just hours away from signing what could be the most significant tech deal of his presidency. The bombshell TikTok agreement, expected to be finalized Thursday, will transfer America’s most popular social media app from Chinese control to a powerhouse group of American investors - and it’s eerily similar to a deal Walmart nearly struck in 2020.

The Deal That Almost Was: Walmart’s $7.5 Billion Gamble

Back in 2020, Walmart had “tentatively agreed to purchase 7.5% stake” in TikTok alongside Oracle’s 12.5% stake, in what would have been one of retail’s biggest tech plays ever. The retail giant understood something others didn’t: TikTok wasn’t just an entertainment app - it was the future of American commerce.

That deal never materialized, but now Trump is making it happen with an even bigger consortium of American business titans.

Trump’s Power Players: The Billionaire Club Taking Over TikTok

The new ownership structure reads like a who’s who of American business royalty:

Oracle’s Larry Ellison - The tech mogul who’s been Trump’s ally is securing TikTok’s algorithm and user data on American servers.

Michael Dell - The computer empire builder is bringing his expertise to the venture.

The Murdoch Family - Media moguls behind Fox News and The Wall Street Journal are joining the fray.

Plus additional “American patriots” Trump describes as “really great people, very prominent people.”

What Makes This Deal Absolutely Massive

Here’s what most people don’t realize: This isn’t just about saving TikTok. With over 170 million U.S. users, TikTok represents the largest digital audience transfer in American history.

The Numbers Are Staggering:

• ByteDance drops to less than 20% ownership

• American investors gain 80%+ control

• 170+ million users stay in American hands

• Billions in advertising revenue secured domestically

The Secret Sauce: Why This Deal Will Work When Walmart’s Didn’t

The 2020 Walmart-Oracle partnership fell apart because it didn’t address the core national security concerns. Trump’s new deal is different:

✅ Complete Data Control: All American user data stored on Oracle’s U.S. servers
✅ Algorithm Oversight: Continuous monitoring ensures no foreign manipulation
✅ American Board Control: Six-seat board dominated by U.S. investors
✅ 120-Day Implementation: Enough time to execute properly, unlike rushed previous attempts

What This Means for American Business

Smart money is already moving. If you thought TikTok was powerful before, wait until it’s fully American-controlled:

Advertising Gold Mine: No more uncertainty about data privacy or sudden shutdowns E-commerce Revolution: Direct shopping integration without Chinese oversight concerns Creator Economy Boom: American creators and businesses get priority algorithm treatment

The Walmart Lesson: Why Retail Giants Are Watching Closely

Walmart’s failed 2020 attempt taught the retail world a crucial lesson: TikTok isn’t just social media - it’s the future of how Americans discover and buy products. The previous deal would have seen Oracle and Walmart taking a 20% stake in TikTok Global, positioning Walmart perfectly for the social commerce revolution.

Now, with Trump’s deal creating a stable, American-controlled platform, every major retailer is reconsidering their TikTok strategy.

Breaking: The Timeline That Changes Everything

Thursday: Trump signs the deal
Next 120 Days: Complete ownership transfer
By Summer 2025: Fully American-controlled TikTok launches

This timeline gives American businesses a massive head start over international competitors who’ve been hesitant to invest in an uncertain platform.

Why This Deal Could Make Trump’s Investors Billions

Here’s the part that should grab every business owner’s attention: The deal ensures TikTok is “majority-owned by American investors” with user data in a “trusted” cloud in the U.S.

Translation? The platform uncertainty that’s plagued marketing strategies for years is about to disappear. When businesses can confidently invest in long-term TikTok strategies, advertising spending will explode.

Conservative estimates suggest the deal could unlock:

• $10+ billion in additional annual advertising revenue

• Massive e-commerce integration opportunities

• Premium access for American businesses over international competitors

The Bottom Line: This Changes Everything

Trump isn’t just saving TikTok - he’s creating America’s first government-approved social media giant. The same app that was days away from being banned is about to become the most trusted platform for American businesses.

Walmart learned this lesson the hard way in 2020. Smart businesses won’t make the same mistake twice.

The window is open. The question is: Will you be ready when America’s TikTok officially launches?
