    I mean, this is the Trump Intelligence Bureau, so I’m taking it with a grain of salt.

    Mostly just seems to be Huang trying to sell hardware in China by end running the US sanctions. And rather than actually sanctioning Huang, we’re getting this hysteria aimed at his girlfriend.

        It’s more the “man who sells widgets was insidiously tricked into selling to the largest widget market in the world, forced to get rich against his will”

      Sure but power shifts each election. Is the fact that this happened post blue tsunami a coincidence?

        It’s happening following a sharp downturn in the tech sector

        That’s not a coincidence

        Power shifts each election? As long as you have establishment candidates rotating, you’re just swapping scapegoats. At most you can say “subgroups of Western oligarchs and foreign players have relatively gained in power/reach, whilst others have lost some”.

          You’re right. But what’s also right is that progressives have never made it this far before.
