He could theoretically make an executive order on the grounds of national security but there are rumours that it's mostly hot air aimed at essentially forcing the company to fully sell the Western branch of it to a US-based company.

In theory the company could make a fortune here; if they sell the entire company to Microsoft they can then immediately re-launch a clone in China, and the CCP will only allow that version since they're against western Social Media use within China. Patents etc. aren't even an issue because the Chinese gov doesn't give a **** about Chinese companies cloning western stuff for domestic use.
