9. This? "No, I'm against all foreign companies running US ports "

[TomInTib]

10. "owned by foreign governments"

big difference.

It is the "government" thing that makes this so noxious.

Doesn't make any difference because this deal is done. They have the ports and there is only one way out and that way is so financially painful that it is not an option.
