The Trump team blocks Broadcom's bid for Qualcomm due to national economic security concerns and 5G telecom network issues. Broadcom makes microchips for broadband communication networks such as key wireless broadband telecoms, modems, routers, and switches. The White House takes an extraordinary action to block this major corporate deal that might inadvertently give China more influence in global technology. In an executive order, President Trump blocks Broadcom's $117 billion bid for Qualcomm due to national security concerns.
There is credible and substantive evidence that both Broadcom and its affiliates (such as China's HuaWei and ZTE) might threaten American 5G telecom network dominance and digital supremacy. For this reason, both Broadcom and Qualcomm must immediately and permanently abandon the takeover proposal.
In response, the Trump administration may introduce punitive tariffs on Chinese imports to dramatically reduce Sino-U.S. bilateral trade deficits. This reduction can contribute to a better balance in the U.S. congressional budget for better mid-term election results that favor the Trump administration.
