Short Says Huang China Trip Would Be a Big Mistake

Marc Short, former Chief of Staff to former Vice President Mike Pence, says President Donald Trump is “terrific at changing headlines” and says announcing Stephen Miller as White House Chief of Staff helped turn the page from Republicans’ midterm losses. Short says politics on both sides will make bipartisan deals difficult even where the Trump administration’s economic policies overlap with positions held by Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. Short calls Vice President JD Vance’s post-election analysis “foolish” and says it “diminishes his role,” arguing the administration should instead focus on how it will address voters’ concerns. Short calls the revelations involving Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang “shocking” and says China was successful in getting the administration to change its position on export controls, adding that he expects congressional investigations. He speaks with Kailey Leinz on Bloomberg’s "Balance of Power." (Source: Bloomberg)
