I have a sinking feeling Musk will buy TikTok

He will expand his control over one of the most influential media platforms for the youth of this country. He will gain access to all of the data gathered by the platform and Musk will use this to influence elections moving forward. It would be extremely popular among the youth to save the platform, and this will be a win for the Trump admin and a loss for America.
