It is that simple. Chinese “laws” created in such a way to keep American social media and tech giants out. We can just create our own corresponding law.

America cant keep its promises to its citizens and do what you are describing at the same time. It's now choosing the latter and chipping away at the former.
You should read the RESTRICT act that just passed.
"Never let a good crisis (real or manufactured) go to waste" always works on an amnesiatic society. At some point the pro-tiktok ban crowd will realize just how much of their 1st and 4th amendment rights they have lost.

What specific promise are you referring to?
It's not that simple. China has laws that US social media/search engine companies are not willing to follow but AFAICT TikTok abides by every US law that exists.
