Same play as always. Bullies countries and corps to get what he wants. As long as it serves him that’s all he cares about.

What’s the play here? Something isn’t making sense.
With the Trump administration, the only thing you can be sure of is that the stated reason isn’t the real reason. Somebody’s got to be getting a payday from this.

There will be some meetings with oems, and gold things dropped on his desk, and the exceptions will start being handed out. Same as always.

It’s a money grab. About the only networking companies that build in the us are like Cisco and juniper. Which odds are, you aren’t running at home. This is without a doubt a money grab. Google and Amazon will gladly pay the exemption fee. Some others will as well. This isn’t about security or “pay American”. It’s a money grab.
