Speaker 1: Hey, without further ado, Welcome to the fifty five KC
Speaker 1: Morning Show. Peter Nevan or doctor Navarre. He received his
Speaker 1: PhD in economics from Harvard back before it was woke
Speaker 1: Professor Emeritith of Economics and Public Policy at the University
Speaker 1: of California, Irvine. He was an economic and trade advisor
Speaker 1: for the Trump Donald J. Trump administration during the twenty
Speaker 1: sixteen presidential campaign. Joined the White House staff on inauguration Day.
Speaker 1: He was the Director of Office and Trade and Manufacturing Policy,
Speaker 1: and he also was behind Donald Trump's tariff policies. And
Speaker 1: he also served time because he refused to cooperate with
Speaker 1: the January sixth Committee and hit the ground running. Day
Speaker 1: he got out of prison and there he was speaking
Speaker 1: at the Republican Convention and supported Donald Trump. Peter Navarro,
Speaker 1: author of the book We're talking about this morning, The
Speaker 1: New Magga Deal, The Unofficial Deplorables Guide to Donald Trump's
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four policy platform. Welcome to the show, sir.
Speaker 1: It's a pleasure to have you on today.
Speaker 2: Hey should be more pleased we are what now eighty
Speaker 2: two days out to an election that will either thank
Speaker 2: this nation or rise it back up and I'm out
Speaker 2: on the trail with this. It's book, the New Maga Deal.
Speaker 3: It's Newmagadeal dot com if anybody wants to check it
Speaker 3: out Amazon, Barnes and Noble. The importance of the book
Speaker 3: is simply that if you compare Donald Trump to Kamala Harris,
Speaker 3: he beats her on every single policy issue that's important
Speaker 3: to voters. And what I do in The New Magadal
Speaker 3: is like flesh that out. So if you look at
Speaker 3: economy and inflation, which people kind of bundle together, people
Speaker 3: out there in Polsterland say that they prefer Donald Trump
Speaker 3: by double digits. Same thing with the border, same thing
Speaker 3: with the who's going to handle crime better? Same thing
Speaker 3: with the military, same thing with our energy issue, same
Speaker 3: thing with the weaponization of the justice system, where I did,
Speaker 3: as you noted, wind up in prison for defending the constitution.
Speaker 3: And of course I still can't find anybody who supports
Speaker 3: the idea, this woke idea of cutting off the genital
Speaker 3: Sorry moran, the audience of young boys in the name
Speaker 3: of this crazy wokeness.
Speaker 1: Well, you didn't call looking for an argument. You didn't
Speaker 1: write this book looking for an argument for me, sir.
Speaker 1: You're talking my language. But you make, I mean the
Speaker 1: point you make, and it is so obvious you're right.
Speaker 1: Poll after poll after poll on every single one of
Speaker 1: those critical issues that are talked about across the dinner table,
Speaker 1: among families of all ethnic and religious backgrounds and financial levels,
Speaker 1: everybody says the same thing. The borders broke, immigrations a problem,
Speaker 1: The economy is in the toilet, crime is terrible, the
Speaker 1: defund the policeman was dumb and stupid. All this Green
Speaker 1: New Deal stuff has costed me a ton of extra
Speaker 1: money and my energy bill. We got to put an
Speaker 1: end to this. But and yet out of nowhere comes
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, who was known for cackling and words salads
Speaker 1: now being trying to reinvent it and by hiding in
Speaker 1: the basement, has not offered a single policy platform on
Speaker 1: her website. And today she's going to roll out in
Speaker 1: favor of what socialism, price fixing on groceries. Economist Peter Navarro,
Speaker 1: how does that work out in country? Has that worked
Speaker 1: out in countries who have tried price fixing?
Speaker 2: Well, I think the bigger point you're raising here is
Speaker 2: how can this be? And I think simply that nobody
Speaker 2: knows who Kamala Harris really is in terms of the
Speaker 2: independent and swing voters that matter. And that's our tour here,
Speaker 2: that's our tour. We have to basically use her own
Speaker 2: words to explain to people who she is and then
Speaker 2: explain how those words of hers translate into poverty and
Speaker 2: pain and danger internationally for the American people. Because now, look,
Speaker 2: you united, every single policy united, there's no debate. She's
Speaker 2: wrong on it, okay, but people need to understand. For example,
Speaker 2: when she calls for defracking Pennsylvania, right, defracking, I don't
Speaker 2: want to ban fracking, right, So what is to it
Speaker 2: reduces the supply of world oil. It raises oil prices,
Speaker 2: natural gas prices, and suddenly people in America are worse off.
Speaker 2: That's directly, you know, from her lips to the kitchen
Speaker 2: table and the car at the gas pump. People need
Speaker 2: to understand that. People just need to understand that. So
Speaker 2: that's my job here, that's my job going out with
Speaker 2: the new Magna Deal book and saying, hey, thirty seven chapters,
Speaker 2: one hundred actions in one hundred days, here's how we
Speaker 2: are going to get back to Trump's America. And we
Speaker 2: just have to make the contract you know, well, the
Speaker 2: other thing is like this guy Tim Waltz. First of all,
Speaker 2: my grandfather got killed by a drunk driver. So anybody
Speaker 2: gets a dui, they're not on my They're not on
Speaker 2: my Christmas cards. Okay, It's like I want to know
Speaker 2: whether the guy still drinks and whether she's going to
Speaker 2: put him behind me. Resolute desk math is the Kamala's
Speaker 2: that's the real problem for me. But the bigger problem,
Speaker 2: the far bigger problem, is comrade Waltz. I mean, look,
Speaker 2: we've seen his own words described Communist China as kind
Speaker 2: of this valhalla, this wonderful place. He never had a
Speaker 2: better time than when he went to Communist China, and
Speaker 2: he had no clue. If that's what the Communist Chinese do.
Speaker 2: They co opt American politicians at every level and the
Speaker 2: strategy they'll go in and they'll get it. They'll get
Speaker 2: a guy who's on a city council and they'll wait
Speaker 2: thirty years until he gets up to maybe be the
Speaker 2: vice president. That's how nation they are. And Tim Waltz
Speaker 2: is the Manchurian candidate. We got to pay that right
Speaker 2: back to Kamala as well.
Speaker 1: Yes we do. Peter Novara and yes we do. I
Speaker 1: guess I have to ask you because I before this
Speaker 1: the segment began, I was talking about the uneven playing
Speaker 1: field we have to play on economically, if I mean
Speaker 1: international corporations that're trying to find a place for manufacturing.
Speaker 1: We have rules, regulations. Oh sha, we have a union,
Speaker 1: minimum wage obligations. You could go on and on and
Speaker 1: on a why the cost of doing business and the
Speaker 1: manufacturer in the United States is so much more expensive
Speaker 1: than communists China, where you can get slave labor and
Speaker 1: have children do the work for you a fraction of
Speaker 1: the cost, no regulations, pollut all you want, and use
Speaker 1: cheap coal to get your energy. We could go on
Speaker 1: and on. How do we compete with that? And the
Speaker 1: point you make is, well, we can teariff Chinese goods
Speaker 1: because of this uneven playing field. But then the response
Speaker 1: for many is no, No, tariffs are no good. You
Speaker 1: know the libertarians out there quite often they're going to
Speaker 1: cost everything. They can make everything cost more. So what's
Speaker 1: your response when you hear that sort of retort to
Speaker 1: let's teariff Chinese goods.
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, there was absolutely no argument or
Speaker 2: evidence for this inflation argument when we put tariffs Allberry
Speaker 2: and the Trump administration. It was just a non start.
Speaker 2: So just the facts say, the terrorist don't cause inflation.
Speaker 2: The second thing is, look, if they're going to steal
Speaker 2: our intellectual property, heavily subsidize their industries, run state owned
Speaker 2: enterprises in the worst kind of cheating ways, and manipulate
Speaker 2: their currency, what are we supposed to do? Libertarian says, Oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: go ahead and buy the chief goods. Libertarian perspective doesn't
Speaker 2: understand that, Like in five years, ten years, twenty years,
Speaker 2: going back when China joined the World Trade Organization, our
Speaker 2: manufacturing base is devastating, devastates. I mean you're right there
Speaker 2: at ground zero where you are, sir, I mean them
Speaker 2: holding the Midwest. That's why I loove JD. Vance as
Speaker 2: a VP. Pick I mean JD's job. He's got one
Speaker 2: job when Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin by preaching the secular gospel
Speaker 2: of domestic manufacturing. And he has street credit on that
Speaker 2: because he grew up in the community where the manufacturing
Speaker 2: left and they are living plummeted. Bad things ensued, So
Speaker 2: we just keep keep pushing on it. I mean people
Speaker 2: people understand, I think, particularly in these battleground states. People
Speaker 2: understand the importance of American manufacturing, and we just have
Speaker 2: to make make the argument that we're the tough on
Speaker 2: China folks. We're the ones that put tariffs on and
Speaker 2: the jobs you're going to keep going offshore.
Speaker 1: With Harris Well, I think you know, if we if
Speaker 1: we engage in some deregulation and reduce the overall cost
Speaker 1: of doing business in this country, we could become more competitive.
Speaker 1: But of course, the Democrats of the Party of micromanaging
Speaker 1: and regulating everything. It's it's plain and simple, it's what
Speaker 1: it's fascism. Sure, we still own the means of production,
Speaker 1: but the fascist elected officials tell us how and to
Speaker 1: run our businesses and what we can make and we
Speaker 1: can't make. So yeah, they love to call Republicans and
Speaker 1: Donald Trump fascist, but demonstrably and definitionally speaking, they're the fascists.
Speaker 2: Hey, hey, hey, I went to prison because those bastards
Speaker 2: put me in prison for defending the constitution. Who is
Speaker 2: the fascist? Come on, yeah, at the Republican has Committee,
Speaker 2: I said, I went to prison, so you won't have
Speaker 2: to just look at my case. Every person involved to
Speaker 2: put me in prison was a Democrat across the federal government.
Speaker 2: Congress controlled by the Democrats, the Department of Justice controlled
Speaker 2: by the Democrats, and the Democrat judge, and the Democrat ury.
Speaker 2: They can do that to me, sir, anybody listening to
Speaker 2: your show right now and go to prison. All they
Speaker 2: gotta have to do is do the right thing, and
Speaker 2: to the opposition it will be the wrong thing.
Speaker 3: Amen.
Speaker 1: Peter Navarro, wonderful having you other program. Thanks for writing
Speaker 1: the new Maggo Deal, which I suspect you wrote in
Speaker 1: large parts. Perhaps the hand over to Donald Trump used
Speaker 1: as a guideline he stays on that policy, then focus
Speaker 1: and that. My listeners will get a copy of the
Speaker 1: book as well. We've got it on my blog page.
Speaker 1: Fifty five krse dot comy make It's so easy for
Speaker 1: them to do that. Peter Devarra, thanks for the time
