I have a visceral dislike for Trump and don't agree with him on just about everything, but in regard to China I do agree we need to do more, and it may be too late. Thing is, he isn't exactly making more friends in Europe, and they do have at least one worldwide leader in chip equipment tech, ASML, that could supply what China needs if he does not get them on board with whatever is decided on.

HI Kirk, I'd argue that. The US afterall does not pretend to be a sanctuary city/state/country. You are living in an anomaly state. It could be different. It is not hard to track exports from the top 6-10 ports. I'm sure there are customs watching! Once I sold 10 Tahoes to a US company on a fleet deal. They converted them into high rider 4X4's and shipped them to Japan. I got a nasty letter threatening my franchise because I sold them to be exported. I told them - it's a free world and if you don't like who my customer sold them to - sue them. <smile> Never a response , but I did learn US customs pays attention! PS, this was done before for shipments into Iraq or Iran - can't remember which. Bob
