The PRC
The PRC can shut our economy down overnight, but then we can bankrupt PRC while they are thinking about it. Its a game of chicken Bob and they are playing with a weak hand and burning both ends of the candle.

Bob, because of the political see-saw, I am not certain if this plan will stick. But I do hope so. They (Huwei) have been accused of stealing the 4G & 5G technology by hacking Nortel, a company I used to work for in the early days of digital telephones.
