RUSH EXCERPT:
CORDERO: "So it‘s very hard. This law really does not give the president-elect much flexibility either before, you know, in this weekend, before he steps into office, or even once he is in the presidency. The 90-day delay pertains to if there really is a credible finding that he can make, where there‘s a record of a credible buyer in this case, TikTok doesn‘t even necessarily want to sell. And at the same time, at least publicly, as far as we can tell, there doesn‘t seem to be a credible buyer. The only other potential path the president-elect might be pursuing is if he simply directs his attorney general once he‘s in office, not to actually enforce the law. But that would be directly contravening what Congress was trying to do here."
