AI Race - A big paradox for Trump's white America

  Trump's last trump card in his trade war to bring down China is now left with the AI and high end chips. These are the only two areas that Trump hopes to stay ahead and even to kill China's growth as the next all round super power. Can Trump and his America hold on to this lead?  Oops, China does not need American chips anymore. China now has its own EUV machines to make high end chips.

The fundamental structures of these two technologies are in a way structured to make Trump's dream an impossible dream. China has the best of AI and chip making talents that are equal to the Americans, and armies of them, and growing. China is producing STEM talents from the assembly line, like producing EVs. STEM talents are sprouting all over China. Time is strongly in favour of China. Chinese chip manufacturers are also catching up real fast with ASML and TSMC and running abreast. With full govt support and funding, not left to chances and the flirtatious market forces, China is pushing ahead with all it got and a political will to do so.

Other than TSMC, the other American semicon giants are Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm and Intel and a few others. And who are behind these giants, the brains that are contributing to their success or failure against the Chinese AI and chip making factories? China, China, China!

Most of the top brains are ethnically Chinese, be they American, Taiwanese or foreign citizens. In short, the bulk of the top talents in the AI and semicon industries are Chinese. This is a factor that is going to give nightmares to Trump. For the moment, it is Chinese in America competing against Chinese in China. Any silly policies by Trump and his clowns to discriminate against the Chinese talents in America will only undermine his Chinese talent base. Not that the Washington clowns are not at it. They have been discriminating and targeting Chinese talents for decades, leading to a reverse brain drain from America back to China. Many of the best talents have returned to China, leaving behind a big black hole to be filled by Indian talents.

When things get worse, the Chinese talents will have no choice, no where else to go but return to China. And there goes Trump's army of AI and chip designing and making talents. Can Trump win this race against China with this paradox? Trump wants the Chinese talents, needs the Chinese talents, but distrust the Chinese talents and making life very difficult and dangerous for them to stay in America to fight for him in this highly competitive race that his hillbillies and rednecks are of no help, just like Pete Hegseth or Trump and company, a hole in the head filled with shit or whisky... troublemakers.

USA resorting to daylight robbery and piracy

 Now that the USA has run out of ropes or cards, it is resorting to daylight robbery and piracy. Trying to seize Venezuela's oil is robbery, nothing else. It has nothing to do with drugs, human rights and presidential illegitimacy.

It is becoming clearer that Maduro was indeed betrayed, given to the USA on a platter. Who is behind it is interesting and who is taking part in a 'wayang kulit' or Malay shadow play is becoming strangely familiar like Duterte's case and unfolding. There is even a narrative being floated, true or not, that the USA special forces had rendered the S300 Russian missiles un-operational during the attack. How did they do it without getting around the Venezuelan military? Someone had been sleeping with the enemy, Think about that!

I could not reconcile the attitude of Venezuela's VP, now President, now talking about 'co-operation with the USA' after her 'strong indignant' response against the attack and kidnapping of Maduro and his wife. But the script must be tailor-made to be as convincing as possible, and the show must go on, with Trump giving her his expected threat and Venezuela's President obviously backtracking. It fits the narrative like a glove. Try to put the pieces together. Venezuela will become a colony of the USA, a fait accompli. Now, who got the US$50 million bounty on Maduro's head is still unknown.

Trump is now already gloating about taking Greenland and also Colombia next. There are rich resources in both countries, and the rogue is now looking on with green eyes. It is just a matter of time.

The USA now has many reasons to fabricate and invent to take over countries, not just Weapons of Mass Destruction, human rights issues and democracy promotion. Drug trafficking is now another narrative being hyped-up to fit the USA's agenda.

Arabs and Muslims must never be allowed to unite.

Two allies of the USA, Saudi Arabia and UAE are forbidden to attack each other. Instead attacking Yemen by the Saudis is acceptable. It kills two birds with one stone. Saudi Arabia is doing USA a favor attacking the Houthis.

However, when it comes to Israel and Qatar who are both allies of the USA, Israel is given free rein to carry out attacks on Qatar while Hamas personnel were in the middle of negotiations. And the irony was that Qatar had been neutered even with USA supplied weapons capable of retaliating. See the drift?

Now, the motive of the evil ones is to create conflicts in the Middle East. Divide and rule is paramount, and the Arabs and Muslims must never be allowed to unite.

Trump may order drugs to be injected into Maduro and wife and declared they are drug addicts

Maduro is now accused of 'Narco terrorism', an old phrase rehabilitated for good use that Trump just discovered and will be put to good use.

Remember Iraq's 'weapons of mass destruction' and 'chemical weapons' (aka baby milk powder that were discovered later) that were invented by evil fertile minds just to invade Iraq for the oil. Wonder what Colin Powell was holding at the UN in a vial, knowing it was not a chemical weapon, because there were in fact none found in Iraq. The USA lied to the whole UN, but the UN could do nothing about it after all the exposure of fabricated evidence.

Well, more fertile and fabricated evidence will be piled on Maduro just to justify his kidnapping and make the charges stick. The Anglo-Saxon clique is helping to make those charges stand up and it is all hands to the deck to pile on the charges - human rights violations, drug trafficking and claims of illegitimate Presidency when he was legally elected. The USA knows Maduro is still popular and have failed to create internal chaos to displace him. So, they resorted to kidnapping him, hoping to run Venezuela from Washington with accomplices on the ground. Many were betting on Nobel Peace Prize winner, Maria Corina Machado, being placed into power, but who had now been thrown under the bus instead by Trump, claiming she did not have the popular support in Venezuela.

Social media is now talking about Trump pardoning the previous Honduran president, Juan Orlando Hernandez, a month ago, who was serving a 45-year prison sentence imposed by the previous Biden administration, also for drug trafficking offences. Hernandez was convicted doing the same thing as what Maduro had been accused of. Trump's claim, as narrated by Marco Rubio under questioning, that he studied the file of Hernandez's case and found no reason to imprison him for 45 years. Imagine a President, with a three-year-old mentality, going through those files and over-ruling court judges is mind-blowing. Trump does not have the mental capacity to understand the case, let alone go through the file, and that goes for his administration of clowns.

Marco Rubio tried to defend the pardoning of Hernandez and was caught with his balls between a rock and a hard place, totally unconvincingly and just trying to wriggle his way out.
