In a surprising departure from his "America First" agenda, President Trump says he will help a China-based cellphone manufacturer save jobs after the Commerce Department said it sold U.S. technology to Iran and North Korea and then failed to live up to the terms of a settlement. It would be difficult to find a more quintessential example of the kind of troubling trade practices that the president has long highlighted, which makes his sudden pivot in the case of ZTE all the more stunning.

My thoughts on this news

Another perfect example of how governments are corrupted by the wealthy and their corporations, they own the governments and they get to choose what laws they have to and don't have to follow. Throughout the entire campaign and his presidency Trump was saying "America First" over and over again and how China is destroying the US economy, blah, blah, blah all bullshit... Look what Trump is doing now, he is helping ZTE a corporation based in China stay in business who violated laws by selling goods and doing business with Iran and North Korea. What happen to his tough on China talk, all of a sudden he wants to help a Chinese corporation, no more 'America First'....? You see in today's global economy corporations have no country, they move around from country to country as they please and the owners of these corporations live anywhere they want. The people who own this corporation are not going to allow it to fail and Trump like a good little puppet is doing what his wealthy masters told him because they want to keep earning money off the workers who work at this corporation. Trump lies more and is more corrupt than any other President before him and he is making it blatantly obvious... We do not live in a society where governments are for the people and by the people, they are for the wealthy and by the wealthy...
