The United States has many close allies who manufacture routers. Seeing as how we already share intelligence and military technology, banning their routers seems... inconsistent.

The part that will make it absurd is going to come when Trump suddenly greenlights some made-in-China routers because the CEO responsible made a "donation" to a "charity." Probably the presidential library.

It is concerning that given the evidence there are still people that wait for Trump’s actions to (a) make sense and/or (b) help people.
