President-elect Donald Trump said he spoke on the phone with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday about TikTok, fentanyl, trade and more.

“The call was a very good one for both China and the U.S.A.,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.

“It is my expectation that we will solve many problems together, and starting immediately,” said the president-elect, who is set to be sworn into office on Monday.

“We discussed balancing Trade, Fentanyl, TikTok, and many other subjects. President Xi and I will do everything possible to make the World more peaceful and safe!” Trump wrote.

Trump’s talk with Xi about TikTok came as the Supreme Court is expected to soon issue a ruling on whether to uphold a federal law that would effectively ban the popular video-sharing app in the U.S.

36-year-old left the U.S. for China—now pays $1,000 rent and $100 for groceries for family of 4: It’s my ‘version of the American Dream’

As a kid, I moved around a lot. I was born in California, but I’ve lived in Arizona, Colorado, North Carolina, Virginia, Montana and Oklahoma. I never had the chance to call anywhere “home” for too long. So if you’d told me back then that I’d end up in China, I would’ve laughed. I visited […]
