Trump Channels Reagan on TSP

Donald Trump channeled his inner Ronald Reagan Monday.

When President Trump learned recently that American servicemen and women and other federal government employees’ retirement funds were about to be invested in Chinese Communist Party companies, he said, “This needs to stop.” And yesterday, his order was faithfully executed by no fewer than three senior subordinates – National Economic Council Chair Lawrence Kudlow, National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien and Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia.

The message they collectively sent to the board that manages the Thrift Savings Plan could not have been more clear: Chinese companies are unacceptably risky. Some enable malevolent CCP activities that repress the Chinese people and threaten ours. And none conform to our nation’s requirements for transparency, accountability and disclosure.

The Gipper’s worthy successor, Donald Trump, has sent a powerful message to Beijing. And Wall Street is on notice, too.

This is Frank Gaffney.
