  • PROOF Trump Helped China

    From bruce bowser@21:1/5 to All on Wed Nov 2 16:18:09 2022
    "IN APRIL 2018, the Trump administration banned Chinese telecom equipment giant ZTE from buying American-made parts, threatening to cripple the company’s worldwide operations. An opening salvo in Trump’s trade war with China, the measure was extreme.
    But ZTE had violated export controls by selling technology to Iran and North Korea, then breached an agreement with the Commerce Department in which it had pledged to stop. Moreover, ZTE makes technology that can be used for surveillance and has ties to
    the Chinese military.

    Just one month later, however, President Donald Trump unexpectedly tweeted that he might be open to a deal that would free ZTE from the Commerce Department penalty, known as a denial order. "

    LOL! This your "proof?" Better try again:

    As part of the deal, ZTE will be fined $1 billion by the Department of Commerce, and a new, United Stated-selected compliance team will be embedded at ZTE for 10 years to ensure similar violations won’t occur in the future. ZTE will also have to change
    both its board of directors and executive leadership sometime within the next 30 days. The Commerce Department says it is “the first time” it has achieved “such stringent compliance measures in any case.”

    ZTE will also be required to put $400 million in escrow, which the US can claim should further penalties arrive. The deal also threatens ZTE with a potential 10 year ban, should terms not be met.

    During a presidential debate in 2020, Trump said the Chinese account “was closed in 2015, I believe”

    WRONG.

    You suddenly don't trust the National Review, Sunshine?

    And actually money from China DURING Trump's time in office is something
    you can overlook...

    ...while imaginary money never proven to have been paid to Biden while
    he as a private citizen is some kind of hanging offense?
