It's not political drama, they were happy to look the other way when there was a quid pro quo. There isn't one anymore so they enforce their own laws. It's 2025 not 1825, we're not right just because we speak English. Although I'm sure a non insignificant portion of the US executive would be more than happy to blockade Beijing and make it rain artillery fire.
The US was also happy to look the other way when Uyghur slaves were manufacturing components for Apple. It's just normal geopolitics.
