The Clinton-urged chinese built tail-plane trim-jack stripped and failed

What in the world does that mean? The airplane in that crash entered service with Alaska in May 1992, before Clinton was elected, and the basic aircraft design (of which the jackscrew was a part) dates from the early 1960's, before Nixon even opened China.

And not a single component nor part had a service life nor ran out of hours nor was replaced during the A/C's time in service.
