The genius of American policy.
Create a hostile environment for Chinese students so that they are encouraged to return home.
Then prevent them from coming at all because they may return home.
This completely ignored that the massive majority of Chinese stay in the US, and even more would stay in the US contributing disproportionately more than nearly every other grouping of people.
If it wasn't for the US driving them away, it's hard to see why any Chinese national, especially a well educated one, would ever choose to leave the US for China.
