"Huawei's situation has always seemed to be protectionism in the guise of national security driven by Trump and his minion"
Ok so you don't like Trump. you have made that clear but Trump was not alone in the affair and I am sure that your current security advisors still have a lot to say, The military, the CIA, NSA are still the same group of people today.. A couple of heads might change but their fear of China remains, it's understandable.
Biden has presumed financial ties with China, and that is something that the American people really need to consider in the coming years... The American people really need to start to think about what Biden is going to do.... Just like Chess every move has a consequence and for the moment Biden doesn't seem to be a strategist.. Undoing what Trump did is not a strategy, it's just pandering to the masses.
Let's see how Biden negotiates with China about reducing carbon emissions, or about the Uigygurs, or human rights, or censorship.. Let's see if he is capable if being a true statesman....
The Huawei affair has it's importance... Biden can't blame Trump for his next moves, so he has to choose them very, very carefully...
China are not some third world backwards country, they are a powerful, thriving, power hungry communist regime.. and definitely not to be mis underestimated..
