I would rather have an American owned and operated company to run the ports. I prefer Americans, is that ignorant?

I'd rather have a company that has a worldwide reputation(Australia, Germany, South Korea) of being a clean and well run compnay leasing terminals at US ports, than the cronyistic American companies beholden to the mob run unions and DNC such as Eller & Co. that went to chuckie schumer to whip up hysteria which you bought.

America would continue to own and run the ports, just like we ran and owned Boston and DC airports on 9/11.

And I'd rather drive a Bentley. So what?

What is it about the running of cargo terminals that makes you think that you ought to have a say in the ownership of the companies that own the operating rights?

This is a purely commercial deal that has nothing whatsoever to do with your thoughts, feelings or concerns unless you happen to be a stockholder.

Also, why are you coming to this party just now?

Where have you been for the paast fifty years? American cargo terminals have had a number of foreign owners, including companies from Norway, Britain, Holland, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, China and others for decades.

You are either a Democrat trying to make points on a manufactured crisis, or you are part of their stampede.

I'll stick with ignorant in either scenario.
