I've watched @amanpour on TV for decades. So I was grateful for the opportunity to sit down with her for 15 minutes.

Yes, this is right. Absent policy action, even a slowing Chinese economy will eventually wrest away US industries like aviation and biotechnology just as they have the electrical stack and autos.

“I'm on bipartisan bills in order to put more restraints on the ability to export our chips to China.
