President Trump just issued a new executive order on China, and it is seismic—utterly demolishing the claim that he’s going to be soft on Beijing.

For decades, China exploited America’s open markets, quietly buying up critical infrastructure, farmland, and tech while blocking U.S. investment in China. This order ends China’s unchecked access to U.S. capital, stops Wall Street from funding its military buildup, and ensures American innovation stays in American hands.

The order prioritizes investment from allies while keeping China out of strategic sectors, finally treating economic security as national security.
