NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1054
In the eyes of Silicon Valley bosses, Trump is a”stick”. why?
Because some of Trump’s public policies may bring bad news to the technology industry.
For example, Trump wants to renegotiate trade deals.
The core of Trump’s strategy to revitalize the United States is to revive the American manufacturing industry.
He once said:”I want to remind our NAFTA partners that we intend to immediately renegotiate the terms of the agreement so that our products can be better traded and workers can have more jobs. If they don’t agree If we renegotiate, the United States will withdraw from the agreement.
Meg Whitman, CEO of Hewlett-Packard, who is also a Republican, once complained to a CNBC reporter about this matter.
Meg Whitman said in the interview:”I think. Trump’s policy of free”820″ trade will have a negative impact on the entire industry. If the American manufacturing industry wants to become the most efficient competitor, it must have lower costs. Benefits.”
Such as Trump’s controversial remarks about Apple and Amazon.
Trump has claimed that Apple will produce iPhones in the United States. If this is true, the soaring costs will make Apple unaffordable.
When Apple and the federal government were in a previous standoff over whether the federal government had the authority to unlock iPhones, Trump was very dissatisfied with Apple’s approach and even called for a boycott of all Apple products:
Trump also criticized Bezos for using his” The Washington Post influences policy for personal gain.
Another example is the stubborn immigration policy.
The H-1B visa in the United States is issued to people engaged in professional and technical work in the United States. Internet companies such as Google and Face have always relied on the H-1B visa to introduce foreign talents.
But Trump’s attitude towards immigration and the ongoing immigration policies will limit the ability of these Internet companies to recruit cheap and high-quality employees.
Another example is Trump’s opposition to NetNeutrality.
The Trump-appointed chairman of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) may repeal the FCC’s 2015 net neutrality rules.
The rules, which require internet providers to treat all content on the internet without favoritism, are seen as fundamental to free speech.
Rather than maintaining an impartial and neutral attitude, Trump prefers to allow the media to equally express their different views on public issues.
Repealing net neutrality could make it more expensive for users to get online, requiring you to spend extra money and effort to access different information.
So this time Martin called on everyone to block Trump’s account for one day to show the power of the Internet. Everyone responded, not only because of Martin’s prestige, but more because they may have wanted to do this for a long time.
…………
Trump felt strange without the Internet for a whole day.
Although he is an old man in his sixties, Trump has long been accustomed to the presence of the Internet in his life. Suddenly it disappeared, and he really felt a bit empty.
Fortunately, the”internet disconnection” was only for one day.
The next day, all Trump’s accounts returned, and this guy immediately opened his Twitter account and started posting.
A controversial tweet reappears in public view
“I believe that America should recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.”
In fact, in order to win over pro-Israel American voters, Trump promised during his presidential campaign last year that he would move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem after taking office.
Jerusalem’s status is between Palestine and Israel. One of the most divisive issues in Israel’s reconciliation talks was Israel’s annexation of East Jerusalem after the
1967 Middle East war and the declaration of the entire Jerusalem as Israel’s”permanent and indivisible capital”.
The Palestinian capital.
The international community generally does not recognize Israel’s sovereignty over Jerusalem.
A US law that took effect in 1995 stipulates that the US embassy in Israel must be moved to Jerusalem.
However, the law also stipulates that the US president has the right to provide security.
In the past, the US government’s long-term policy was that the status of Jerusalem must be resolved through negotiations between Palestine and Israel. The embassy was moved to Jerusalem to avoid intensifying conflicts..
In fact, although Trump promised to move the embassy in Israel during his campaign, in order to cooperate with efforts to promote the resumption of peace talks between Palestine and Israel, he signed a document delaying the relocation in June this year.
At that time, the Associated Press quoted some American officials as reporting that Trump still intended to fulfill his campaign promises, but at the same time was concerned that doing so would frustrate peace-promoting efforts, so he was considering not moving the embassy and recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
However, Trump’s national security advisory team has been discussing this issue recently, and the discussion has been particularly intense in recent days.
Trump joined the discussion in the past few days and became increasingly emotional. He spoke for an entire hour about how promises should be fulfilled.
At the meeting, Defense Secretary James Mattis and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson pointed out that relocating the embassy in Israel would pose a serious security threat to U.S. diplomats and military personnel stationed in Islamic countries.
When King Abdullah II of Jordan visited the United States this week, he also issued a similar warning to Vice President Mike Pence and Tillerson, believing that the United States would move its embassy in Israel in the absence of a peace agreement between Palestine and Israel. Jerusalem will deepen anti-American sentiment in the Middle East, sparking riots and unrest.
After intense discussions, Trump and his core advisory team finally accepted the warning, but at the same time insisted that Trump should somehow demonstrate that he had fulfilled his campaign promise of relocating the embassy. As a result, the meeting resulted in the decision not to move the embassy but to recognize Jerusalem as an Plan for the capital of Israel.
This is why Trump posted the above news on Twitter.
But even without moving the embassy, the president of the United States recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, triggering strong reactions from Palestine and the international community.
Especially in the Middle East, there is indignation against these few people.
A spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said on the night Trump tweeted:”Any Palestinian-Israeli peace plan must recognize East Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine.”
Jordanian King Abbas Doula also believed that Trump was playing with fire.
