On the one hand, you may say that Trump's tough stance against China (Huawei, trade tariffs, presence in the South China Seas) is positive. From the other angle, it is on par with his America First approach. Shutting out Huawei inevitably helped US companies. Not sure what the core motivation is ... a) global leader standing up to a tyrant or b) here is an opportunity for America First.

I mean Trump tried to add tariffs to trade with Canada ad nauseum ... what was his motive there? Standing up globally to the tyrant Canada?

And oh .. don't forget the attempt to ban Tiktok ... a huge global threat.
