- valuearb 6y agoThe CFIUS investigation has no basis, the acquisition took place years ago with no national security implications. Trump can’t do squat because anything he attempts will be blocked while it’s litigated far longer than the end of his only term.
- nouveaux 6y agoOk so I'm merely stating facts here. Why the downvote?
- burfog 6y agoTwo guesses, one for each side of the political spectrum: 1. The word "erratic" suggests that there is error, rather than deliberate behavior to make the news and to throw enemies off guard. 2. You pointed out that the actions were in fact started by CFIUS, which is a disappointment to anybody who wants to see the actions as being driven by vanity or malice or corruption or similar.
