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.
And frankly, it's embarrassing to hear this argument.
I mean, it is the same argument that companies have been making for 30 years now.
Let's get into China, we're gonna win in China, it's gonna be great.
And every single time the same thing happens.
The Chinese take the technology,
and then they push the American firms out, right?
Xi Jinping is not going to let Nvidia or any American company be at the heart of Chinese technology.
And so it's almost like, you know, it's like Charlie Brown with the football.
We've just got these companies that are, they just want to get that profit up next quarter, next year.
And they keep doing it because for them, it's not about the national interest.
And that's why we actually need public policy.
That's why we need to have leaders who are willing to say, we get that you're just trying to make a profit,
That's fine.
That's your job.
