And number two, you know, some of our best companies, the companies that are actually building this stuff out, like, you know, Microsoft and Google and Amazon that are building in the US that want to go build in allied countries, in countries that are our friends, you know, let's make sure they're the ones that are able to go build in other places too, rather than having to sell these chips to companies controlled by other countries.

So, you know, the companies that are building the AI stuff, they support this.

Obviously, any American who would like to see Americans and not Chinese companies get these chips should support this.

It has a lot of support in the Senate.

It has a lot of support in the House.

And then the White House comes out today and says, no, we're opposed.

Don't do it.

And to your point a minute ago, they don't even give you an explanation.

They don't have an argument for it.

It's just the wrong guys in the administration who are in bed with, like you said, kind of the arms dealers who are saying we care more about being able to sell chips to China

Then we care about what happens to the United States.

Yeah, well, like you said, it's so fascinating to watch these guys talk because they'll just say anything, right?

So Jensen will go out and he'll say we're sold out.

And then he'll say, no, no, but we need to sell to China.

He'll say China is about, they're within nanoseconds of beating us in this race.

He says he thinks they're going to win the race.

He says he doesn't think it matters who wins the race.

And then he says, no, no, but it's really important that we be able to sell some of our best chips

to the Chinese and you're just sort of scratching your head

and wishing it would make sense, the closest thing I've heard to an argument for why we should be selling chips to China is that we're somehow gonna get them hooked on our technology.
