Amid mounting national security concerns, Sen. Mark Warner said he and fellow lawmakers have held classified briefings with intelligence officials and American businesses to warn them about the dangers China presents.

The U.S. intelligence community wants Silicon Valley to think twice about doing business with China.

“I’m a former venture capitalist," Warner told NBC News."Until fairly recently, my views were similar to a lot of folks coming from the business world: I supported growing economic ties between China and the U.S., believing there were opportunities for both to benefit.""But a few years and many, many classified briefings later, my views have changed, as China has," he said."We have to increase awareness among U.S.

The briefings have included a who's who of intelligence officials, including National Intelligence Director Dan Coats and National Counterintelligence Director Bill Evanina. The push is meant to impress the gravity of the situation upon business leaders who see the obvious economic benefits of doing business with China.

Somebody asked “why don’t they support Trump on this?”. The likely answer is that their interest is their personal benefit and not the American people’s interest; so whatever they collectively do with misguided hope to frustrate the great works of our President Trump, they will.

Just put China on notice like Iran. Then intensify the patrols of the US destroyer McCampbell within 12 nautical miles of the Paracel Islands. All we need is war, war is all we need!

Then why don't they support Trump on this.

Maybe the public will get a redacted version after war breaks out !

China Trade

I hope China is a big issue this election. Joe Biden is soft on China.
