1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,239
Speaker 1: President Donald Trump called on US military leaders to resume

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons testing to match programs in Russia and China.

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:12,720
Speaker 1: He posted this before his meeting was jijingpink in South Korea.

4
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 2: Hey, we should all get along. By the way, we

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 2: need to test some nuclear weapons. That's a great strikeing. Yes,

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 2: So why did he do that?

7
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: Was that just I'm going to put this out here

8
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: before I meet with China as just a thread or

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: let him know where we stand.

10
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 2: Well, it's a flex, right, yeah, but is it a

11
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:35,480
Speaker 2: smart flex? I mean, the American America made a decision

12
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 2: whatever it's been now fifty plus years ago with Nixon,

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: that we were going to engage the Chinese, and part

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 2: of us engaging the Chinese on a commercial level allowed

15
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 2: them to grow stronger. And let's face it, we engage

16
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: knowingly with China because we all, you know, we bitch

17
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 2: and we moan and we scream or the politicians do

18
00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: about human rights violations China. Yet we keep buying stuff

19
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,199
Speaker 2: from China, and we chose to engage with China. Let's

20
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: just be honest. It's just us, casey, nobody else is listening.

21
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: We chose to engage with China because we know about

22
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 2: their human rights violations, and we know, we knew, we

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: know to this day that they are able to make

24
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 2: stuff that we can buy cheaper than if we made

25
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 2: it here because they play at best fast and loose

26
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 2: with how workers should be treated. And so there is

27
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 2: this like hipocrisy amongst these politicians who for decades and

28
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 2: I'm not lumping Trump into this because I think he

29
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: got has tried to get tough with China, but these

30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 2: these senators, these congressmen to some extent, these presidents who

31
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: who on one end criticized China's human rights but then

32
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: continue to engage in a commercial transactional type relationship that

33
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: allowed them to continue to operate in that in that.

34
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: Manner, right, and now he just made the huge soybean

35
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: deal with them.

36
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: Well we are at it's continuing. We are addicted to

37
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: cheap stuff in this country, and they're you know, I'm

38
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 2: not gonna get on some moral high horse and go

39
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: that's dead wrong, because I'm sure every day I buy

40
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: something that was made in China or in some way

41
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: engage in and I don't shop all that much, but

42
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 2: my wife might buy something, you know, right right, not

43
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: in anyway try and every other person does too when

44
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 2: you go to the Walmart. Now, if it's not China,

45
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 2: it's some other, you know country that probably has similar

46
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: human rights, you know, worker rights, worker regulations to China.

47
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: So I'm not gonna get on some moral high horse

48
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 2: and finger waggoning. Unlike the lady who didn't wear the

49
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 2: mask and her son's wedding and they told you what

50
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 2: to do, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that's the

51
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: conversation we have to have as a country to decide

52
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 2: what we're gonna do going forward. You can get tough

53
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: with China. You can punish China. You can force them

54
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: on some level to get better. It won't fix it

55
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 2: all the way, but you can on some level force

56
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 2: them to get better at worker rights and what they

57
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: pay people in the conditions they live. You're gonna pay

58
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: more for stuff if you wanted to be made in

59
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: this country, You're gonna pay more. Are you willing to

60
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: do that? And it's going to be a lot more.

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: I'm sitting here looking at you and I'm thinking, you

62
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: know what, you're probably wearing clothes that were made in China,

63
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 1: probably for your headphones that you're currently using.

64
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 2: Possibly that's why I don't get on a moral high

65
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: worse when it comes to China and say you must

66
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: da da da da da da da. I don't do that.

67
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 2: I say you can. I say I am willing to

68
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: pay more if we choose to do that. But you

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 2: also don't see me sitting here every day making it

70
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 2: issue number one, because I'm probably guilty of it, as

71
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: is every single other American.

72
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: In regards to the nuclear testing. The last time the

73
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: US conducted a nuclear test was September twenty third, nineteen

74
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: ninety two, at the Nevada Test site, and it was

75
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: called Divider. A moratorium was issued by George hw. Bush

76
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: after the Cold War, though
