President Trump Wants US To Win 5G Through Real Competition (bbc.com)
hackingbear writes: In a tweet, President Trump said he wanted "5G, and even 6G, technology in the United States as soon as possible. I want the United States to win through competition, not by blocking out currently more advanced technologies. American companies must step up their efforts, or get left behind." While he did not specifically mention China's Huawei, many interpreted the comments as Mr Trump taking a softer stance on the firm. The U.S. has been pressuring allies to block out the Chinese telecom giant from their future 5G mobile networks, but the tactic meets considerable resistance. "Mr. President. I cannot agree with you more. Our company is always ready to help build the real 5G network in the U.S., through competition," Huawei President Ken Hu replied in a tweet, mocking Trump's frequent usages of the word "real." Huawei is the second biggest holder of 5G patents after Samsung and the top contributor to the 5G standard, and is setting its sight on 6G.
That's competition!
Just like marks are "citizens", respect for the rule of law is "the unhinged, violent left", lining up to apply for asylum is "illegal rapists and murderers", Nazis is "good people", and tax cuts for the top one percent are "for the middle class".
That's GOP cant.
Nope, he thinks it means borrowing a whole lot of money to try and crush the competition then declaring bankruptcy and not paying the contractors what you owe when you finally figure out that it's not sustainable because you're not "competing", you're "subsidizing".
Leave other people to pay the bills and pick up the pieces.
No sig today...
It's not progressives who are at fault for the hypocrisy, corruption, and fraud of the blatantly selfish right-wing fools.
They're not doing it with taxpayer money.
