Donald Trump, the master of creating unnecessary enemies, signs another executive order, wrapping his favorite ‘foreign adversaries’ in a cozy blanket of sanctions. ‘Economic security is national security,’ he proclaims, as if the two concepts were ever mutually exclusive. It’s fascinating how he continues to view China as a black sheep in a world of white lambs, despite their undeniable technological prowess. But hey, why let facts get in the way of a good story? And who needs to be protected from the boogeyman of technology when you can just impose tariffs like a kid playing Monopoly? Not to mention the ‘mixed reactions’ in Washington – a perfect example of how even in a land of opportunity, the path to innovation is paved with political gridlock.
Trump signs order to restrict access to U.S. technology for Cuba and other “foreign adversaries.”
