00:00Finally, on NVIDIA and China, Donald Trump's trade war has created a mess for U.S. businesses.

00:09And now that he's rushing to clean up that mess, and he's getting played by Beijing.

00:18Last week, the administration handed President Xi and the Chinese government a major win,

00:24approving chipmaker NVIDIA to resume selling American H-20 chips used to develop AI to China.

00:33When these chips were blocked, Americans breathed a sigh of relief.

00:37China would not get the basic tool to catch up and even surpass us on AI and so many other important technological advances.

00:47But not four months ago, for that reason, the administration blocked the sale of these chips.

00:54But now, typical of Donald Trump, there's no consistency.

00:57It's just what he feels is good for himself at the moment.

01:00They're making a costly, troubling U-turn.

01:04Flip-flops like this show weakness to the Chinese government.

01:11What's more, the chips are vital in the race to dominate AI.

01:15These H-20 chips are among the best on the market and were critical for China's development of DeepSeq.

01:56But the administration's capitulation keeps going.

02:00As part of trade talks with Beijing, they're also undermining export controls of U.S. technologies,

02:09This sends an unmistakable message to adversaries around the world.

02:15America's national security is open to negotiation under Donald Trump's government.

02:21The administration should reverse its original decision in April to block the sale of these chips to the Chinese government.

02:27Donald Trump should stop giving the Chinese government leverage in the race for the technologies of the future.

02:35The administration should never stay made with their generation of political thinkers.

02:53The administration should reverse its solidarity within the future.

02:55The administration should reverse its affiliation to help cause 투inger Island leverage in exchange.
