POINTS In a Wall Street Journal op-ed, liberal billionaire financier George Soros offered some rare praise of President Trump for his policies around China and Huawei.

But Soros said he worries that Trump will reverse his own strategies to use Huawei as one of his “bargaining chips” in trade talks with China in the run-up to the 2020 election.

Soros said Huawei should not be removed from the U.S. entity list without Congress’ consent.

If Soros is happy it might have been a bad idea.

It is called damning him with faint praise. Although I agree Huawei should not be a bargaining chip.

Soros needs to mind his own business and stop telling us how our government works and what he thinks we *should* do.

If Soros approves, I’d double check to make sure what I had done was the right thing.

Funny to see Soros criticize social credits. Its the brainchild of his party. Maybe the Dems are now even too extreme for Soros.

Soros is not taking an unsafe democrat position. Trump’s china policy enjoys widespread democrat support.

Partner, I would say that Soros probably bought a lot of shares of stock of a company that goes against Huawei.

Huawei copied, cheated, and stole Motorola technology and this is why Motorola is now worth not even a Billion dollars and Huawei is worth Billions of dollars.

The Chicoms will continue to cheat, steal, and copy our Technology until we leave China and stop trading with that country.

President Trump enjoys a lot of support from the Democrats and Republicans on this issue of trade with the Chicoms.

Freepers do not want to hear that it is a little too late to do this because the Ginnie is out of the bottle. President Trump knows that the Chicoms were very close to controlling a lot of our technologies that we in the U.S.A. set companies in China to make the product. Examples are too many to name right now but the Aluminum industry is one which is vital to our national security and the steel industry. It is not too late to put that Ginnie back in its bottle with the Chicoms.

We could not believe this statement from these folks who want to keep trading with the Chicoms.

Wait, I’m on the same side as George Soros?

Back in a few days after banging my head against a brick wall and undergoing ritual cleansing.

Actually Soros’ column was double edged. He praised Trump for some of his efforts with China so far, while adding that he is concerned Trump will make a deal just to make a deal, and one compromise in a deal may give an edge to China’s tech giant Huawei in the race for 5G dominance. That edge would come by letting Huawei off the hook, removing our sanctions against it, and continuing to allow it to get more U.S. technology it needs - just to get a “trade deal”.

Labeling Soros a Liberal is like labeling Hitler a poor leader.

And I’m sorry, but I think Soros ranks up there with the likes of the Hitler crowd.

Reportedly, this guy was turning in Jews during the Hitler years.

He manipulates currencies with the goal of toppling decent Western governments.

He needs to be put out of our misery.

Partner, the Chicoms have been up to no good and the CEO's of companies in the U.S. have been up to no good for the American Patriot Worker and the American Consumers.

We were at a place just this week and they had really nice tile since we offered to update our son's bathroom. We saw one of the most unique glass shower doors that just slides to open and slides to close. Perfect we will go back and get the installer's name to put this into the bathroom.
We go to Lowes to see what ideas they might have on bathroom tile and low and behold we saw the same glass door that slides to open or close the shower. This time though, Lowes gets the sliding shower door from China. This is is a copy duplicate of the same sliding glass shower door that we saw some other tile place. Then, I started going thru Lowes and there were way too many products that can be made elsewhere or in the good ole U.S.A.

This example and there are too many too name is copying/duplicating by the Chicoms for their advantage.

We left Lowe's really disappointed and the very next day I went to Home Depot to see if they had a lot of their products manufactured by the Chicoms and sure as heck I found a lot of products make by the Chicoms. I was so teed off after that trip.

The CEO's of companies in the U.S.A. are so "Eat Up With These "Supplier Partnerships"" that we need to start doing something about these "Eat Up CEO's on Supplier Partnerships" with the Communists of all people.

I guess one other huge issue that we should have is that the other day on the Fox Business Channel I heard that you can not put the Ginnie back into the bottle. We can certainly say a big Bravo Sierra to that line of thinking. We are trying our best to get the Chinese Communists off our back and quit making them prosperous while the American Patriot Worker goes broke by being out of a job.

Agree that most American shelves are still stuffed with Chinese goods.

The news is that American companies are leaving China at a faster pace. But many of them are not returning to the USA but rather relocating in viet nam, malaysia, indonesia mexico.

I don’t know what will happen.

I hope that Trump rips up the Chinese supply chain and lowers energy costs.

Partner, we can thank God that President Trump is our leader since most POTUS's we have had have been the most terrible POTUS's ever. The Bush Family must have been beholden to the Chinese markets, Clintoons have given the most secret of our satellite technology to the Chicoms for contributions to the Clintoon foundation, and the America Hating piece of work Obama gave as much to the Chicoms as he could get way with. All of these guys were idiots and could not hold a candle to President Trump in energy and smarts.
