1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 1: Showing up next our final News Roundup and Information Overload hour. 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 2: News Roundup and Information Overload Hour toll free. Our number 3 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 2: is eight hundred and nine to four one sean if 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 2: you want to be a part of the program, as 5 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 2: we have been going in a great specificity in detail. 6 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 2: Now we have one hundred and thirty countries that are 7 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 2: seeking either free and fair trade deals. I would imagine 8 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:28,040 Speaker 2: most of them want that, or they'll be reciprocal tariffs. 9 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: We see the Trump effect with Navidia announcing that they 10 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 2: will produce AI supercomputers entirely in the US for the 11 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 2: first time and produce five hundred billion of AI infrastructure 12 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: in the US over the next four years, which is 13 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 2: a big deal, much to the surprise of many. America's 14 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: largest retailer, biggest box store if you will, Walmart, says 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 2: it does not expect that Trump tariffs will negatively impact 16 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: their sales growth and are there going to be some 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: complications difficulty, Yeah, absolutely, And while I do believe these 18 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty countries, I think I would expect 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: and anticipate at some point there's going to be deal 20 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 2: after deal after deal that is going to be signed 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: by the President and I think that's going to be 22 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: good for Americans. We have been ripped off taking advantage 23 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: of frankly abused, and have allowed ourselves to be such 24 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 2: for all of these years. As I mentioned earlier in 25 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 2: the program, Victor Davis Hansen had a lot of good 26 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: points in his column today. And you know, you know, 27 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 2: let's ignore the fact that, well, you know, why is 28 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 2: Wall Street panicking? Their latest jobs report went through the 29 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: roof that they didn't expect, or the inflation rate dropped 30 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 2: to its lowest level in four years. They worried about 31 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 2: Trump's impending tax cuts, deregulation, greater budget cuts, which even 32 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: a novice on Wall Street would know is good for 33 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: the economy. But if the US is running a sixty 34 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: three billion dollar trade surplus with Kenada, you've got to 35 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: ask some serious, significant, real questions. You know, I brought 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 2: up the issue earlier today. You know, why are US 37 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: cars pretty much frozen out of the European market? Why 38 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: does the EU have car sales in the US totaling 39 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: forty three point nine billion dollars versus sales of American 40 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,119 Speaker 2: cars of only eight point nine billion. Well we've gone 41 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: into that in detail. A ten percent terriff versus our 42 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 2: two and a half percent tariff, and of course they're 43 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 2: twenty percent vattax. That's thirty percent increase to the sticker 44 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: price of any automobile we're selling there. Now we have 45 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: over seven trillion I guess now seven and a half 46 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 2: trillion with Navidio today. That is being committed. But this 47 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 2: is separate and apart from what President She is going 48 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 2: to do in China. Clearly, Donald Trump has gotten his attention, 49 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 2: and President She apparently is going on an Asia trade blitz, 50 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 2: according to reports visiting Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia seeking to stabilize 51 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: China's trade ties, and their commerce minister arguing this week 52 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 2: that Trump tariffs and flicks serious harm on developing nations. Meanwhile, 53 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 2: most of those countries are already at the point of 54 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 2: wanting to deal with President Trump and negotiate trade deals 55 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: with US. And so anyway we're going to we'll see 56 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: what happens. And with China, I still believe that they 57 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: will need access to our markets and if they can 58 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 2: continue to ratchet up a trade war, Donald Trump's not 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: going to back down on China. Is he more open 60 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: and willing to negotiate with our allies and partner shore. 61 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 2: But again, the choice is going to be free and 62 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: fair trade versus reciprocal trade. But the choice will be yours. 63 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 2: Here's the President sounding the alarm about how during the 64 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: Biden years we lost trillions of dollars because they allowed 65 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: China to take advantage of us, rip us off, and 66 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: abuse us. Here's what he said, with. 67 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 3: The greatest economic power in the world, if we're smart, 68 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 3: if we're not smart, we're going to hurt our country 69 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 3: very badly. We lost with China over the Biden years 70 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: trillions of dollars on trade, trillions of dollars, and he 71 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 3: let them fleece us. And we can't do that anymore. 72 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 3: And you know what, I don't blame China at all. 73 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 3: I don't blame President She I like him, he likes me. 74 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, they trunos. Who the hell cares you. 75 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: Know. 76 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 3: Let me just tell you this. I don't blame China. 77 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 3: I don't blame Vietnam. 78 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: I don't. 79 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 3: I see the meeting today and that wonderful. 80 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,119 Speaker 2: That's a lovely meeting. 81 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: Meeting like trying to figure out how do we screw 82 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 3: the United States of Americas Okay. 83 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: Now the question is what happens now with China and 84 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: is President She able to Is he able to find 85 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 2: access to enough other markets and work out trade deals, 86 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: because if you look at the list, and I've scrolled 87 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 2: it on television and I've mentioned it on radio, I 88 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 2: just it would take me the rest of the show 89 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: to list every single item that China puts a tariff 90 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: on on the US. Are they going to be open 91 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: to free and fair trade or just will it be 92 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 2: reciprocal tarifsts. That's going to be up to President She, 93 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 2: But I think at the end of the day that 94 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: he's going to need access to our markets anyway. Gordon Chang, 95 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 2: author of The Coming Collapse of China and the Great 96 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 2: US China Tech War, and he actually put up on 97 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: x what President She will do when the sun rises 98 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 2: in Beijing is a question mark. He has no good 99 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 2: options because the more he retaliates, the more he undermines 100 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: his faltering economy. And by the way, the Chinese currency's 101 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 2: never been worse than where it is now. Their economy 102 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 2: is struggling. The only thing they've really invested in that 103 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: should concern Americans is in their military might. Anyway. Gordon Chang. 104 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: Welcome back to the program. 105 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 4: Thank you so much. Sean. 106 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: All right, let's get your assessment on this. Knowing and 107 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 2: having studied President she as you have, well. 108 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 4: The Chinese are in a very difficult place. First of all, 109 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 4: their economy is spiraling down. We see this from the 110 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 4: price data for March, which shows deflation. They're having their 111 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 4: two thousand and eight crisis now, Sean. In two thousand 112 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,119 Speaker 4: and eight, they didn't want a recession, so they overstimulated 113 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: their economy, took on too much debt. Now they've got 114 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 4: to deal with all of that debt, and you have 115 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 4: the plunging property market and failing local governments, and then 116 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, President Trump says, I'm dealing with 117 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 4: the terriff issue. So I don't know what means that 118 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: they have. I mean, you mentioned that they're going to 119 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 4: try to sell more to other countries, but that's going 120 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 4: to be really difficult because our market is the most 121 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,119 Speaker 4: important to them. They got the world's biggest consumer market 122 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: can't be replaced. The only thing that Cijmping can do, 123 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 4: and which is what he's trying to do right now, 124 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 4: is to mobilize political opinion in the United States to 125 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 4: put pressure on President Trump. And I don't think Trump 126 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 4: is going to back down, as you say, because Trump 127 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 4: really believes what he's doing. He knows it's important, he 128 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 4: knows that this is it, and so I think he's 129 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 4: going to stand. 130 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: Firm one hundred and thirty countries that want to do deals. 131 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 2: He certainly's gotten the world the world's attention. The only 132 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: thing I might have a slight warrior concern about is 133 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: I think everybody understands we've been ripped off and taken 134 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: advantage of, and it's gone on for fifty sixty years, 135 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: and I think that's one of the reasons why these 136 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: countries are so amenable to dealing with them. But back 137 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: to China, I believe it, and at the end of 138 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: the day, President she will be practical, and the practical 139 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: answer is going to be okay. Donald Trump's going to 140 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 2: be in office four years. The impact on the Chinese 141 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: economy is incalculable in terms of the amount of money 142 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: and the amount of product that they send into this country. 143 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: So I would expect and anticipate a deal at some point, 144 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 2: probably a summit down the road. Am I wrong? 145 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 4: I hope you're right. The problem is that Cjping has 146 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 4: considered the Chinese political system so that only the most 147 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 4: hostile answers are considered acceptable, which means and at least 148 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 4: in the short and intermediate term, he's not going to 149 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 4: pick up the phone. Now, picking up the phone to 150 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 4: talk to President Trump would be the rational thing to do, 151 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 4: but I think he's boxed himself in. So yes, I 152 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 4: think long term the Chinese will have to talk to 153 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 4: the United States, but it is going to be a 154 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 4: lot longer than most people want. But by the way, 155 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,119 Speaker 4: let's remember that when we did have a trade deal 156 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 4: with President with President Trump and General Secretary of Signping, 157 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 4: it was a loser for us. That was the Phase 158 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 4: one trade deal of January twenty twenty. The Chinese immediately 159 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 4: violated it. So you know, we've got a long way 160 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: to go before we can get a trade deal which 161 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 4: actually means something. 162 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 2: What do you mean by they violated? How did they 163 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: violate it? 164 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 4: They had purchase commitments which were very specific on various 165 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 4: items agricultural and manufactured goods, and they just didn't meet 166 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 4: those commitments. It was very clear that there was no 167 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 4: way that they had actually honored the promises they made 168 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 4: to President Trump. 169 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I just think that, you know, the question 170 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: is a matter of pride. Now, the Chinese economy has 171 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: been faltering. How bad is it it is? 172 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 4: I think contracting it could be a little bit better 173 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 4: than that, But we know that it's not growing at 174 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 4: the five point zero percent pace that they claimed for 175 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 4: last year. Last year when they claimed five zero, it 176 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 4: was probably one point zero or one point five. Now 177 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 4: there's been very clear deterioration, so they're probably about zero. 178 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 4: And as I mentioned, they're in deflation, both consumer deflation 179 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 4: and factory deflation, and that means that the economy is 180 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 4: going down very hard to get out of deflation. So 181 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 4: I don't know what they're going to do short of 182 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,119 Speaker 4: going to war, as you suggested. 183 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's talk about this. They obviously have a 184 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: massive population. They have built up the military. Do you 185 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: believe they have surpassed America's military capabilities? They have hypersonics, 186 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: we don't. For example, however, we have more nuclear weapons 187 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: with more delivery systems than they do, which would be 188 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: mutually assured destruction. Is President Chief suicidal? I don't think so. 189 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think so, though. I think he is 190 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 4: a much lower threshold of risk because right now he's 191 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 4: being blamed for all of China's problems, which means that 192 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 4: he is more willing to take risk than we think 193 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 4: he is, so he can take us by surprise. And 194 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 4: your first question, overall, the US military is more capable 195 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 4: than China's. And yes, they've got some weapons and some 196 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: really important weapons that we don't have, the hypersonic cruise 197 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 4: missiles that you mentioned. But remember it's a communist military, 198 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 4: which means that it is not well configured for fighting 199 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,680 Speaker 4: a long term more because when you get two reporting lines, 200 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 4: one political one military, where the political one is more 201 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: important in the military line, that's no way to run 202 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 4: a war. 203 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 2: Let me ask you a practical question, because there are 204 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: so many businesses that rely on cheap goods from China, 205 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: whether they're goods to build things here in America or 206 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 2: whether or not you know, for example, the toy industry. 207 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 2: I don't think Americans have an appetite to pay fifty 208 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 2: bucks for a barbie, assuming that toys like that are 209 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 2: made in China. I don't know for sure, but I'm 210 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: just trying to come up with an example. And how 211 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 2: is it going to impact those businesses and jobs here 212 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 2: in America. Now. I love the seven trillion dollars that 213 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: seven and a half trillion now that have been committed 214 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 2: in new investment manufacturing, automobile industry, I paying career jobs 215 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 2: for Americans as a result of even the threat of 216 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: President Trump's tariffs. But for the companies that have been 217 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: reliant and making money, and there's one, there's one prominent 218 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 2: business guy, I'm not going to mention him now, but 219 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 2: his comments this weekend I found pretty repulse have been disgusting, 220 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: you know, predicting an economic doom and gloom for America. 221 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: And I just happen to know for a fact that 222 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: a lot of the profit margin of his well big 223 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: Wall Street firm has to do with the fact that 224 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 2: they do never ending business in China. So it's a 225 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: little bit selfish and self serving on his part as 226 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: far as I'm concerned. But we'll get into that maybe 227 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: at the right time. Well what do you do? What 228 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 2: do you say to the companies smaller American companies reliant 229 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 2: on either materials or outright products that they're importing from China. 230 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 4: They're going to have to move their supply chains to 231 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 4: countries that have better trade environments, and certainly we have 232 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 4: better relations with This has been, you know, clear for 233 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 4: some time that there was going to be increasing trade 234 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 4: friction between China and the United States. So these companies 235 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 4: should have moved their supply chains earlier, and if they didn't, 236 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 4: they made a grievous mistake because everybody could see this 237 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 4: was coming. So I think that they will do that, 238 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 4: and that means that prices won't spike, or at least 239 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 4: they're not going to stay up for very long because 240 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 4: companies will move factories to countries where the tariff rates 241 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 4: are lower, and that'll be good for US. 242 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: Sean Well, I agree, and I think it's going to 243 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 2: be good for American markers as well. And I think, 244 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: you know, we already see massive amounts of money being 245 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 2: invested in the country. What do you predict Europe is 246 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: going to do. 247 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 4: Europe needs to come to the table with President Trump 248 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 4: and enter into a major trade agreement. This is something 249 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 4: that Biden and his predecessors couldn't do because they were 250 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 4: playing too nice and the Europeans play very, very tough 251 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 4: on trade, as President Trump has said. So I think 252 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 4: that there will be a deal. And the other thing 253 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 4: is I don't think they'll have much of a deal 254 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 4: with China because China is trying to also enter into 255 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 4: a trade relationship with the twenty seven member nation European Union. 256 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: But EU and with the European Union, well, they've been 257 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 2: stupid and in terms of getting their energy resources from Russia. 258 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 2: Would they be stupid enough to move away from the 259 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: United States and move towards China. 260 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 4: I don't think so, because they've had a lot of 261 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 4: trade friction with China, and they know how bad China 262 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,599 Speaker 4: is and the things that make China a predatory and 263 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 4: criminal trader are not going to be settled by a 264 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 4: trade agreement between the EU and China. Now, as for energy, 265 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: President Trump is willing to sell them energy, and if 266 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 4: when we get our export terminals in Louisiana up to speed, 267 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 4: I think that the Europeans are going to see that 268 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 4: they should be buying American energy rather than Russian energy. 269 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 2: Now it's going to be interesting to watch Gordon Chang. 270 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 2: We appreciate you, Thank you, sir for being with US 271 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 2: eight hundred and nine four one. Shawn, if you want 272 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 2: to be a part of the program, I'm sure most 273 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: of you by now have heard Bill Maher's comments. I 274 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: actually watched it and it was interesting, but I had 275 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 2: already known what happened. We had Kid Rock on the 276 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 2: next night. He told us he was there. Dana White 277 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 2: was there, so I didn't think Bill. I don't think 278 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: Bill Mar's a liar. I just think. You know, one 279 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: interesting thing I think Kid Rock said to Bill Maher is, 280 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: you know you donate all this money to Democrats. Did 281 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 2: they ever invite you? 282 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:13,120 Speaker 3: No. 283 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: At one point he even said one of the things 284 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 2: that he really liked about Donald Trump that he and 285 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: this was to me was amazing. I wouldn't feel comfortable 286 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: talking to Obama or Clinton like I did Trump. I 287 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 2: was able to criticize him and he was fine with it. 288 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 2: And by the way, that's one hundred percent true. And 289 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 2: you know, they found areas of agreement, like on wokeism 290 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: and immigration, and he went into great specificity in details, 291 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 2: not changing who he is, and he was clear about that. Anyway, 292 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 2: here's what Mar had to say Friday night. 293 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 5: So, Maga fans, don't worry. Your boy gave me nothing, 294 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 5: just hats hats in a very generous amount of time 295 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 5: and a willingness to listen and accept me as a 296 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 5: possible friend. Even though I'm not maga, which was the 297 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 5: point of the dinner. And he said, you know, I've 298 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 5: heard from a lot of people who really liked that 299 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 5: we're having this dinner. Not all, but a lot, And 300 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 5: I said same. A lot of people told me they 301 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 5: loved it, but not all. And we agreed. The people 302 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 5: who don't even want us to talk, we don't like 303 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 5: you don't talk as opposed to what writing the same 304 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 5: editorial for the millionth time and making twenty five hour 305 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 5: speeches into the wind. Really, that's what liberals have. He 306 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 5: takes the piss out of everybody else and we can 307 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 5: hold ours. Okay, that's my report. You can hate me 308 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 5: for it, but I'm not a liar. Trump was gracious 309 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 5: and measured. And why he isn't that in other settings 310 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 5: I don't know, and I can't answer, and it's not 311 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 5: my place to answer. I'm just telling you what I saw, 312 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 5: and I wasn't high. 313 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 2: I gotta admit that's pretty funny, Linda. Imagine would there 314 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 2: ever be a moment where Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama or 315 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: any of these people whatever. I doubt it. I don't 316 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 2: think that would ever happen. 317 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 6: Definitely not. Maybe you should start, you know, getting high 318 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 6: on all of your shows and trash talking them excessively. 319 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 6: I guess that's what they like. They're massacres. 320 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 2: Well, he said he didn't go HI. Apparently he wanted 321 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: to drink immediately. According to one of my sources, can 322 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 2: I have a drink? It was a little number. 323 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:19,120 Speaker 7: Sure, it was. 324 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 6: Super stressful for him. I mean it's like you know, 325 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 6: I mean they were just kept breaking his stones. It 326 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 6: was ridiculous. 327 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, Keith Overmany somewhat has no impact at all. 328 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 2: Just oh my god, it's a constant. Yeah, he lives 329 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 2: in a constant state of rage. By the way, Uh, 330 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 2: don't over analyze mar prostituting himself to Trump. Mar works 331 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: for the same pascist at Warner who took over and 332 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 2: corrupted CNN. He goes on and then he's I've known 333 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,439 Speaker 2: Bill since nineteen seventy eight. Is a shameless opportunist with 334 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 2: no real principle. Then and he remained so this is 335 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: so he can keep his HBO show. Oh like everybody 336 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 2: at MSDNC Washington Post similar criticism. You don't have to 337 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 2: patronize me, Marsh snapping at this idiot.

Gretchen Whitmer. Now this is 340 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 2: a little different situation. Gretchen Whitmer knows that the state 341 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 2: of Michigan is devastated because of the sixty year policy 342 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 2: as it relates to tariffs, and she wants to get 343 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 2: on the right side of the issue because her state 344 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 2: has been decimated. Anyway, eight hundred and ninety four to one, Seawan, 345 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 2: If you want to be a part of the program. 346 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 2: Guy is a Maryland guy.

So 351 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: I'm a retired teacher and I'm a house painter. Now, 352 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: so I bought I bought a sign and I put 353 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: on my paint truck. It says my truck identifies as 354 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: a Tesla. So I went to this Tesla protest set 355 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: because within on these mills where I live. So I 356 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: pull in and first they're smiling at me because I 357 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: don't know if they think I may be making front 358 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: of tesselas. So I parked in the lot.

And I said, look, why are 362 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: you guys protesting? I mean, you guys have the American dream. 363 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: Maybe you got everything, you don't do without. You've never 364 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: had to, like live in a bad neighborhood. What is 365 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: going on? Well, they started cursing at me, using all 366 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: kinds of foul language. They were calling me a racist. 367 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: I said, look, man, I was a coach and a 368 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: teacher for forty years. Man, I'm not a racist. I 369 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: coached every type of kid you know, a lot of 370 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: state champions. I said, what are you guys talking about? 371 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: And they were just cursing and they were blowing the 372 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: whistle and one of the one of the young guys 373 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: goes up and he says, go ahead, buddy, throw a 374 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: punch at me and then I'll kick your butt. I said, man, 375 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to hit you. And then they were 376 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: really man. They were cursed and swearing. I'll tell you, Sean, 377 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: I have never seen such rudeness. And the signs that 378 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: they were holding are the same exact signs I saw Apaghettysburg. 379 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: So I mean, I think they're being paid to be 380 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: I really do. 381 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: Listen, I welcome to my world. I've dealt with this 382 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 2: a lot. I dealt with a lot more when I 383 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 2: was in New York. Unfortunately, it's a major reason why 384 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 2: I left, because I don't want to put myself in 385 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: people I love in that situation. Frankly, I don't care. 386 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: I don't mind confrontation, never have my entire life. However, 387 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 2: it's not fair to friends, family, co workers, people that 388 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 2: I care about. I don't want to put them in 389 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: this situation. But I deal with these idiots all the time. 390 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 2: And you see how vicious and violent and horrific the 391 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 2: left has become. You know, they praised Luigi Mangioni. I 392 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: can't explain that obsession. You heard Taylor Lorenz earlier or 393 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 2: over the weekend. I saw it online somewhere and justifying 394 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 2: this is the guy that murdered the United Healthcare CEO. 395 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 2: We see what they've been doing at Tesla dealerships, firing 396 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 2: bullets into those dealerships and fire bombs cars and charging stations, 397 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 2: and calls for assassination of Elon Musk. We watched this 398 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 2: weekend in horror, even though he's a Democratic governor. This 399 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 2: is absolute evil and its domestic terrorism and what they 400 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 2: did to Josh Shapiro's house is appalling and sick and evil, 401 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 2: and all of this is related to the Democratic Party 402 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 2: has embraced this radical pro Hamas wing and their party 403 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 2: and are unwilling to speak out against it. And I mean, 404 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: I feel terrible for his family. But at some point 405 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: I hope he comes out very publicly and says the 406 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 2: squad members that have been virulently anti Semitic, and the 407 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 2: other Democrats that have remained silent, and those that have 408 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 2: remained silent about the domestic terrorism on Elon Musk, those 409 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 2: that praise Luigi Mangione need to stop. Anyway, my friend, 410 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 2: appreciate the call. Penny Utah.
