Could a theoretical new US-based competitor lobby to have TikTok removed from the app store as it is a tool of the CCP?

TikTok seems easy to defeat if you were to use the law to ban it.

A theoretical company could theoretically lobby for literally anything, including for the moon to be replaced with a wheel of cheese. Whether their lobbying would be productive is another matter.
