How much is he getting paid?
Only the best deals…
I’d like to know when this started. Did the Obama administration initiate the sanctions on ZTE?
No mention in this article about Trump’s daughter Ivanka being awarded a number of exclusive Chinese patents.
Making China Great Again…
~$500M of Chinese loans for a Trump project in Jakarta and 13 chinese trademarks for the feckless cunt, umm… Ivanka…
So this is the first actual Billion Dotard ever made?
Use that billion for health care, you heartless GOP bastards.
“President Donald Trump barged into the ZTE case last month by tweeting that he was working with President Xi Jinping to put ZTE ‘back in business, fast’ and save tens of thousands of Chinese jobs.”
Fun Fact: According to the Chinese zodiac, this is the “Year of the Racist, Red-State Rube Oblivious to the Fake-Billionaire Selling Him Out”.
One beeeelion dollars (pinkie finger to mouth).
I wonder what our “beautiful military” and Department of Defense think about this?
"The fine announced Thursday comes on top of $892 million ZTE has already
paid for breaking U.S. sanctions by selling equipment to North Korea
and Iran. "
So how is this not like “negotiating with people who support terrorists”?
Ivanka got all the rights she had been seeking to sell her products in China.
So basically ZTE is making the same promises they made a couple years ago (and then completely ignored). In another couple years we will be shocked, shocked to find that they ignored those promises again. And the $400M in escrow will unaccountably be found to have disappeared in the middle of the night.
(Well, probably not, but $400M for them is pretty much a slap on the wrist, especially if it’s spread out over the time since the infraction.)
Beijing figured out the code - don’t bother with the conventional formalities of state bureaucracies, just bribe the president directly and he’ll give you what you want.
$893M right into Trump’s pocket.
Fox and the base like this why?
TrumpRussia is the smokescreen for TrumpChina.
Abuse of power, working with a company that supports terrorist states and selling out our country to do it.
These “people” are simply traitors. All of them.
