I think forcing a sale of TikTok is fine -- after all China effectively does the same thing for all US companies in China.
But H.R. 7521 gives power to handle more than TikTok. (g)(3)(B) [1] certainly looks to me like it can be used by any President to pressure or outright censor many foreign sites and apps.
