How? It's a law passed by Congress with support from both parties. Trump can delay the enforcement, but who knows what will happen after he is gone? Is there any guarantee that Apple, Google, or any companies providing services to TikTok won't face massive fines after Trump leaves?

The executive branch enforces laws. If there is no plan to enforce then it doesn't matter.

Also, unblocked as of now. Told ya.
