China is grateful for Qualcomm and the timing of this. A case that was expected to be dismissed instead, in the wake of the Huawei arrest, becomes a tool.

Not sure how two US companies dueling it out helps China?

Sends a message to the US that their companies can be blocked/disrupted just like the US is doing to Huawei.

Actually a bonus to not have to be directly linked to a Chinese company that the US can complain about.

Qualcomm brought the case in China. This give China an opening to put punitive measures in place against an American company. In the aftermath of the detention of Huawei's CFO this is a great opportunity because it isn't China acting unilaterally, it is them acting in response to a legal challenge brought by an American company. Literally as win/win as it gets from China's perspective.

And, in other examples, are doing exactly what their campaign backers expect them to do.

Yes that means that do things that trump agrees with and some things that he doesn't. As you'd expect someone making their best judgments. Unlike the courts in China which never ever ever do anything to contradict Xi and CCP.

Great, so in the US, we have judges beholden to different powerful groups, that don't have my best interests at heart.

It's marginally better then having them beholden to one powerful group, but still insane.

Judges need to be appointed, not elected.

But this is why america wants. A fair legal and judicial system that looks at cases equally. Not to mention if it was this it could make Apple move factories out of china and into vietnam and other markets.

Yup, that's pretty much also my take on this.

It's weird how barely anybody else seems to see these connections and instead prefer to see this as completely independent from the current US-China disputes.
