1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: So there's some truly stupid takes on tariffs. And if

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,960
you're listening to this, then you don't. You're gonna say,

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,359
why do you sound like you're talking from a bathroom

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,359
in Dallas, Texas. It's because I'm near a bathroom in Dallas, Texas.

5
00:00:12,359 --> 00:00:13,839
And look at all this gear I got and I'm

6
00:00:13,839 --> 00:00:15,480
too stupid to figure out how to put it all

7
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:18,679
together and this thing, and so we figured that content

8
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,399
matters more than quality. We're going to talk about the

9
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,120
truly stupid takes on tariff for Zach Abraham, who sent

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,879
me a beautiful text. It made me feel better. We'll

11
00:00:26,879 --> 00:00:29,559
do this with the help of Visible at gobisible dot

12
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,600
com and of course through God Almighty.

13
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,039
Speaker 2: But Todd Herman show is one hundred percent disapproved by

14
00:00:37,119 --> 00:00:44,399
big pharma technocrats and tyranne s everywhere from the high

15
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:53,200
mountains of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exime Todd Herman.

16
00:00:56,399 --> 00:00:58,679
Speaker 1: Today is the day the Lord has made, and these

17
00:00:58,679 --> 00:01:00,840
are the time so which God is sided we shall live.

18
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,679
And he's gonna sound better than me because he's got

19
00:01:02,679 --> 00:01:05,519
his fancy dand microphone. I'm stuck in a Marriotte in Dallas,

20
00:01:05,599 --> 00:01:09,200
quit and Reflia, Porto Bayarta. Good to see you brother,

21
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,280
that text you sent me. We need to talk about this.

22
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:12,920
But let's just get straight into this.

23
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: Man.

24
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: What are people missing in the tariff discussion?

25
00:01:17,159 --> 00:01:19,519
Speaker 3: Well, you and I have You and I have had

26
00:01:19,519 --> 00:01:24,159
these discussions round about in several different ways. But the

27
00:01:24,519 --> 00:01:29,439
biggest thing that is really frustrating me is people acting

28
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,120
as if the status quo isn't broken. Right, So if

29
00:01:33,159 --> 00:01:35,120
you think that I would encourage you to go to

30
00:01:35,159 --> 00:01:37,640
all of our major cities, go to their downtown areas.

31
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,920
I'd love you to go to the rust belt, head

32
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,920
to Detroit, go to the places that have been massively impacted,

33
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,040
especially places that were once considered Cleveland would be another

34
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:50,319
great place to visit. Go visit places that used to

35
00:01:50,359 --> 00:01:53,560
be seen as manufacturing hubs in this country. Okay, and

36
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:56,439
so now we know there's every well, yeah, we know

37
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,920
the jobs moved to China, but most people don't understand how.

38
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:04,079
And let me start off by saying that I'm kind

39
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,680
of reminded of Sun Sou, right, which is no your enemy, right,

40
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,800
and quit looking at them through a lens of ideology,

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,840
and look at them through a lens of really trying

42
00:02:13,879 --> 00:02:17,280
to earnestly understand. Then if you look at the Chinese

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:20,759
tactics and strategy that they've rolled out over the last

44
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,080
twenty five years. I know I'm going to make some

45
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,800
people angry when i say this, but it's been brilliant.

46
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,719
It's been brilliant the way they've gone about this. And

47
00:02:31,039 --> 00:02:35,000
the reason I say that is you have a world

48
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,560
that post World War Two was cooperative in its nature,

49
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,879
that being, you know, opening up lines of free trade

50
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:48,159
was seen as a form of economic morality and maybe

51
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,919
not just economic right, maybe humanitarian right. And in so

52
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:55,199
many ways that was the case. Well, if you want

53
00:02:55,199 --> 00:02:59,800
to take advantage of that system, that system worked because

54
00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:03,879
for the most part it truly was free trade right.

55
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,840
So meaning we're going to source this thing from over

56
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,599
here because those people have a ton of it or

57
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,599
and they're really good at it, and in exchange, they're

58
00:03:12,599 --> 00:03:14,840
going to source what they need from us over here

59
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,879
for the same reasons. Both of our margins increase, both

60
00:03:18,879 --> 00:03:21,680
of our GDP's increase, and it's a rising tide, and

61
00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:23,800
it really is a beautiful thing when it works that way.

62
00:03:24,759 --> 00:03:27,240
But if you flip around and look at what the

63
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:31,680
Chinese did, it was nasty, it was nefarious, and it

64
00:03:31,759 --> 00:03:36,080
was brilliant, which was they said, he we under under

65
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:40,080
under dingsdau Ping, right, the guy that was the leader

66
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:45,319
of the Chinese Communist Party, that led and truly did

67
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:50,319
led the opening up right, the opening of the Chinese economy.

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,280
And they were heading in a really great way. And

69
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,159
had his philosophy led the charge, I think that global

70
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,759
idea about incorporating China into the global economy, I think

71
00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:07,560
it would have played out. But unfortunately a fellow by

72
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,479
the name of Xijinping took over. And he is a Maoist, right,

73
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:15,520
he is a Mouist down to his bones. Look at

74
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,560
the way he dresses, look at his hairdoo right, none

75
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:20,759
of that is by accident.

76
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,959
Speaker 1: And he's a Chinese. He's a Chinese supremacist too.

77
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,759
Speaker 3: Totally, totally. And here's the beautiful thing they did. Here's

78
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,480
here's the brilliant part of what they did.

79
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,959
Speaker 1: They said, all right, we're.

80
00:04:32,759 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 3: Going to get involved.

81
00:04:33,639 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: Let us in.

82
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 3: We want to play ball, right, so let him into

83
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,560
the World Trade Organization, let him into the right just

84
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,519
make him a part of the global global community. And

85
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,279
then on the back channels, what China was doing for

86
00:04:45,319 --> 00:04:50,160
a while was artificially suppressing their currency, which was inhibiting

87
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:53,639
the beneficial side of their trade from coming. Right, because

88
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,279
what you want is you wanted their currency to appreciate.

89
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,639
That makes over time, that gives them less of an

90
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:03,120
advantage over everybody else in terms of labor costs.

91
00:05:03,639 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 2: Right.

92
00:05:04,079 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 3: So and again other economies, you let that happen, and

93
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,040
we grow together and some grow faster. Right, it's and

94
00:05:09,519 --> 00:05:14,680
it works well. They first started by suppressing their currency valuations,

95
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:19,519
and then they started radically subsidizing all of their corporation,

96
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,800
not all of them, but a big portion of them, right.

97
00:05:21,959 --> 00:05:24,160
And the idea was, hey, we're going to pretend like

98
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:28,279
we're playing free here, but due to our subsidies, you're

99
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,199
gonna be able to manufacture goods at an artificially low price,

100
00:05:31,439 --> 00:05:34,000
and just like they did with steel, we're gonna dump

101
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,519
them all over the world. Right, And we can continue

102
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:44,759
to do this because because we are manufacturing at such

103
00:05:44,759 --> 00:05:47,879
a lower cost and the government is subsidizing. And people

104
00:05:47,879 --> 00:05:50,319
are like, well, they can't keep that up forever, right,

105
00:05:50,319 --> 00:05:51,759
where are they getting that money? And you go, they're

106
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:53,600
printing it, and they're like, well, their currency is going

107
00:05:53,639 --> 00:05:56,560
to go to zero u uh uh, because guess what,

108
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,439
they're the world's greatest exporter of goods. So what does

109
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,879
that mean. That means all of that currency, including US

110
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,560
dollars and euros and all that stuff is flowing back

111
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,319
into their country, right, and so then they use those

112
00:06:07,439 --> 00:06:11,279
FX reserves to buy back their currency in the open market.

113
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,160
And so what they're doing. If you allow that to

114
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,800
continue on and nobody counteracts it, they literally will just

115
00:06:17,879 --> 00:06:20,959
take over everything. And if you don't, if you don't

116
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,040
stop that, there's no way because one of the constraints

117
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,959
from governments being too involved in economies is they run

118
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,480
out of money, right, but not when you're the world's

119
00:06:30,519 --> 00:06:33,240
largest exporter, because the FX is pouring in is faster.

120
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: You can print X means you use using phraseology that

121
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,240
smart people use, so.

122
00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:44,639
Speaker 3: Foreign reserves right, So meaning meaning if I sell you know,

123
00:06:45,319 --> 00:06:47,759
X amount of widgets to the United States, United States

124
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,600
is purchasing them with dollars, And as long as I've

125
00:06:50,639 --> 00:06:55,000
got more foreign currency flowing in, then I've got flowing out.

126
00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:57,319
And oh, by the way, oh by the way, they're

127
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,240
also one of the only countries in the world that's

128
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,639
considered to be a free trading company country that has

129
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,800
a closed capital account, meaning on top of that money

130
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,000
flowing in, they restrict the amount that they'll allow their

131
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,040
citizens to outflow. Right, So you and and look, this

132
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,439
isn't hyperbole, This isn't me like, you know, spitballing this.

133
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:22,800
This is exactly what they're doing. And this is exactly

134
00:07:22,839 --> 00:07:25,560
what they've done. And so I've heard people say, well,

135
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,000
they can't keep printing, they're gonna clan collapse their economy,

136
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,360
and you go, they're an export nation, man, They'll just

137
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:32,720
buy back their currency in the open markets with yours.

138
00:07:33,519 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: Okay, So this then gets us to something had to break, yes,

139
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,120
otherwise they what you just said is true. They take

140
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,879
off everything. And that is their goal. That is cheese goal.

141
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,240
And what includes you know, by a warfare. They said

142
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,279
that we're going to be the best. This chemical warfare

143
00:07:53,279 --> 00:07:57,360
includes Taiwan. Clearly they're posturing for that and eventually it

144
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,839
includes us. I mean, that's that's the goal, to take

145
00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:03,920
over the world. So we'll talk about that. You and

146
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:07,120
I have been talking to a guy and you know

147
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:10,439
him because he's he's one of your best friends, talking

148
00:08:10,439 --> 00:08:12,279
about taking over the world and banks and all this,

149
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:18,600
and it's Brian mckechnee with Visible and this is a

150
00:08:18,759 --> 00:08:21,279
really really fascinating company. I took you up, I had

151
00:08:21,319 --> 00:08:24,680
the consultation with him, and the degree to which your

152
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,959
bank is willing to make you think you're getting corporate

153
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,720
credit is really interesting. Yeah, and they operate to me,

154
00:08:29,959 --> 00:08:32,360
why don't you open a corporate credit card? Cud okay?

155
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,480
And they gave me the application, looking at and going,

156
00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:39,320
let's asking a lot of personal questions like, uh, you

157
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:42,480
you know where I live and you know my assets

158
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:47,039
and I know subtle why is my personal connected to this?

159
00:08:47,159 --> 00:08:49,679
And oh yeah, we just we just do a credit check.

160
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,360
And Brian came on says, no, that's not true. You

161
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,320
have a credit rating for your business. They aren't going

162
00:08:55,399 --> 00:08:57,200
to tell you that. I'm going to show you how

163
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,080
to grow it. So he does this in sand steps.

164
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,679
There's a couple of things they're not going to do

165
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,000
for you, and you don't want them to do you

166
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:05,200
actually don't want people opening credit your name. They're not

167
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,159
going to do that, but they'll show you how to

168
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,960
do this and then turn it into a software a

169
00:09:09,039 --> 00:09:13,039
service program and building corporate credit apart from your personal

170
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,919
credit A gives you safety If God forbids, something goes

171
00:09:15,919 --> 00:09:17,639
wrong with the business. People can't come through your gat

172
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,960
timent accounts, they can't come to your house. You know,

173
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,720
when you really get protected and separated. But then I

174
00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:25,399
learned that corporate credits and my CFOs always knew this,

175
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,320
and they're all fancy day and CFOs and oh a

176
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,120
corporate line of credit. And I'd be half listening thinking

177
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,600
about the strategy and yeah, you go do your numbers thing.

178
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,799
It grows so much more quickly that you can manage

179
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,600
cash flow in better ways. If God forbid, there's an emergency,

180
00:09:40,639 --> 00:09:43,639
you can tap that, you can have expansion credit. And

181
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,919
you actually you're working with this guy. I mean, I

182
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:48,200
know he's a friend of yours, but you love this

183
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:51,080
business too. Yeah, well, in full disclosure.

184
00:09:51,759 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 3: And I've actually got to send a disclosure to my

185
00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:57,960
to my compliance people that just just became official. But

186
00:09:58,039 --> 00:09:59,799
I like this so much. I'm also a part of

187
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,639
my already owner. And the reason I am is because

188
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,840
I truly first became a client. And I also have

189
00:10:07,919 --> 00:10:10,720
known Brian for twenty years and he's one of the

190
00:10:10,759 --> 00:10:12,480
most honest, hard working guys. And so it's kind of

191
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,360
one of those deals where you're like, well, yeah, I'd

192
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:16,879
love to help you start this business, but also I

193
00:10:16,919 --> 00:10:19,639
need your services. And the reason I needed them is

194
00:10:19,919 --> 00:10:22,919
when we started Bulwark. One of the things that's bothered

195
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,240
me for a very long time is that I never

196
00:10:26,279 --> 00:10:29,200
had the time, and so we've leveraged bullwork off of

197
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,360
our personal credit, our personal name. We don't have big

198
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,799
lines of credit, but anytime we have needed something or whatever.

199
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,480
So I've got a corporation, right. The purpose of a

200
00:10:38,519 --> 00:10:42,080
corporation is to shield the business owners from the corporate risk.

201
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,960
But when I'm on lighting everything in my own private name,

202
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,960
I'm undoing that all. I am literally piercing the corporate

203
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,080
veil for everybody else.

204
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:49,799
Speaker 1: Right.

205
00:10:50,639 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: So and so I knew I needed to build up

206
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,360
my corporate credit and think about this. One of my

207
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:57,840
concerns about it, and I don't want it to be

208
00:10:57,879 --> 00:11:03,720
too conspiratorial, but lawfare right, like meaning I need eight Right,

209
00:11:04,159 --> 00:11:07,000
I need to build a hedge between myself and my

210
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,000
business to take the full advantage of the protection the

211
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,759
business offers me. But I'm sitting there running my business

212
00:11:12,759 --> 00:11:14,840
going I don't know. So Brian called me out of

213
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,159
the blue one day, I was like, hey, I wanted

214
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:18,159
to run a business idea by you that I wanted

215
00:11:18,159 --> 00:11:20,320
to get involved in. What do you think of it?

216
00:11:20,879 --> 00:11:22,679
And I stopped him about twenty minutes into it, and

217
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,440
I said, I'll be your first client, Like, just sign

218
00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:27,759
me up, get me in here, because I need to

219
00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:29,720
do this and the costs that you're going to do

220
00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:31,960
it for me at I don't have the time to

221
00:11:32,039 --> 00:11:35,200
hire somebody or do all that myself. And so for me,

222
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,960
it was just and I've found a lot of good

223
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,519
investments this way where you run into it and you're like,

224
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,519
this is perfect. I've been looking for this, right, and

225
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,120
it's so cost efficient. Most business owners are like me.

226
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,639
I just thought, this makes all the sense in the world.

227
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,919
I know, most successful entrepreneurs are not thinking about protecting

228
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:55,480
what they.

229
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,919
Speaker 1: Have because they're builders, right.

230
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,080
Speaker 3: So one of the main ways we can do that

231
00:12:00,279 --> 00:12:02,919
is just getting corporate credit and taking full advantage of

232
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,240
the protection that that corporate entity offers. And like I said, uh,

233
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,840
I'm not pitching it, I'm I'm a client.

234
00:12:10,279 --> 00:12:14,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm pitching it because I've become a client.

235
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,879
So go visible dot com, go bisible dot com, and

236
00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:20,919
here's the guarantee I'll make you. You will learn something.

237
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,039
It's a free chat, no obligation, and I'm just gonna

238
00:12:24,039 --> 00:12:26,519
guarantee you're gonna learn something about banking in your business.

239
00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:31,919
Go visible dot com. So China, they you know, they're maoists.

240
00:12:32,279 --> 00:12:34,200
But there's a reason I talk about the China model.

241
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,879
They invented the four sets of purchase products you don't

242
00:12:37,919 --> 00:12:39,840
want from companies, you don't like it, process you can't

243
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,039
afford for services don't need. And so Obama saw that

244
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,480
though that's a good model, the Democrats are gonna do this.

245
00:12:45,639 --> 00:12:49,039
Obama's a mauist. And oh but he's rich, right, so

246
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:50,720
is cheap. Have you seen how he lives?

247
00:12:50,879 --> 00:12:51,039
Speaker 3: Right?

248
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: Have you seen how the Dictatormurth's crea lives. All maoists

249
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:55,679
are rich if they're on top of the party. That's

250
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,960
why they're maoists. He's also, as I said, a Chinese,

251
00:13:00,519 --> 00:13:04,080
not nationalists. He's a Chinese supremacist. The Chinese race is

252
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,559
the master race. And you were saying that they get

253
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,240
this economic setup where this massive exporter, of the world's

254
00:13:12,279 --> 00:13:16,240
biggest exporter, they're buying their currency back so they they're

255
00:13:16,279 --> 00:13:19,480
not going to collapse, and something has to change, and

256
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:22,440
everybody talked about it. But then Donald Trump came along,

257
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,080
and I want to read your text. You sent me this.

258
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,639
This gave me a great bit of believe. This would

259
00:13:27,639 --> 00:13:29,000
be like the fifth time I've read it. Say I

260
00:13:29,039 --> 00:13:31,000
was walking around the airport reading it to people. Hey

261
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,200
want to here's something cool about the tariffs. So you

262
00:13:34,279 --> 00:13:38,960
wrote me this earlier today and you wrote, Hey, Trump

263
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,360
tariff approach working even better than I would have hoped,

264
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,320
looking like a total master class. Now China's in their

265
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,679
biggest buy in the last forty years. He's told to

266
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,960
kick the legs up from under the political system undermine

267
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,159
their entire economic strategy. Pretty remarkable how fast tables have

268
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,720
turned to no surprise, media totally oblivious, oblivious, or they're

269
00:13:55,799 --> 00:13:58,080
like figuring, oh wait, this might work and we need

270
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:02,320
to trash Trump. Let's start with why you're so thrilled

271
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,200
and the master classes you see it.

272
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,279
Speaker 3: So now let me let me first also say I

273
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,000
realized it's a masterclass. But I'll also pair that with

274
00:14:12,039 --> 00:14:16,600
saying that Trump is flying close to the sun, meaning

275
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,519
it's not a This is not are you kidding?

276
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: This is the biggest like no no limit poker game

277
00:14:22,559 --> 00:14:23,159
in the world.

278
00:14:24,159 --> 00:14:27,799
Speaker 3: It is but it's also a wonderful time to go

279
00:14:27,879 --> 00:14:29,960
all in. And the reason why it's a wonderful time

280
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,080
to go all in is because if this were to

281
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,960
go as badly as you could possibly imagine, the outcome

282
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:41,039
would be very similar to doing nothing right. That's really interesting, Right,

283
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,200
So when when when the status quo is guaranteed death,

284
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:50,679
it should change the risk perceptions of doing something else. Right. So,

285
00:14:51,639 --> 00:14:53,720
one of the things that Trump is recognized and one

286
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:55,600
of the biggest problems and this is kind of an

287
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,600
underbelly of this whole thing that a lot of people

288
00:14:57,639 --> 00:15:01,440
don't understand. Why this problem is so pernicious is the

289
00:15:01,559 --> 00:15:05,559
vast majority of Western countries or companies rather are going

290
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:08,440
to scream and kick and throw fits and get on

291
00:15:08,519 --> 00:15:11,200
CNBC and tell you what a disaster this policy is

292
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,399
because it contracts their margins by twenty five or thirty percent. Right,

293
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,879
And now Z knew that. Z's like, hey, how do

294
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,759
we take down capitalism? We take advantage of the ineptitude

295
00:15:23,759 --> 00:15:27,759
of their governments, and we take advantage of the corporation's greed. Right,

296
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:31,320
we will literally help them build their own prison because

297
00:15:31,399 --> 00:15:35,000
they'll be sending their dollars to us because it increases

298
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:38,600
their profits. So how do you do that? Tarrifitt by

299
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,240
one point forty and eliminate the profitability of working with them, right,

300
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,879
and just say no more? You're done, right, If you

301
00:15:44,919 --> 00:15:47,080
want to buy their stuff, it's going to cost you more. Well,

302
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,240
it's gonna hurt consumers.

303
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 1: You know what.

304
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,879
Speaker 3: Not half as bad is what it's done to consumers

305
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,000
and manufacturing workers in our country for the last twenty

306
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,440
five years. And if you think we can ignore them

307
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,519
a tasticizing problem for twenty five years and fix it

308
00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:03,879
with no pain, you're a child, right, leave the room.

309
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,240
Let the adults deal with it. And so how do

310
00:16:06,279 --> 00:16:08,120
you do it? You've got to put them in a bind.

311
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,320
But you need to put them in a bind. You've

312
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,519
got to get a sort of damicles hanging over their head.

313
00:16:12,679 --> 00:16:15,320
They've got to feel the pressure. And the only way

314
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,279
to do that is restrict their access to US dollars.

315
00:16:18,919 --> 00:16:20,240
Is it a perfect restriction?

316
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 2: No?

317
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,279
Speaker 3: But what it will event Now what the downside is?

318
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,039
I think this leads to two places. It either leads

319
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,000
to a much better trade association and a much better

320
00:16:34,159 --> 00:16:38,000
structure to deal with China and to get them to

321
00:16:38,159 --> 00:16:41,159
force them to do things in a more fair and

322
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:46,559
non predatory way, or it ends in kinetic warfare. But

323
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,600
like I said, this idea that the status quo isn't broken.

324
00:16:51,679 --> 00:16:55,120
The only people telling you that are the people that

325
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,960
are billionaires, the elites who it doesn't matter. And it

326
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,600
doesn't matter because they've probably got a twenty billion dollar

327
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,799
house in China or a twenty million dollar house in

328
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,480
China somewhere, right, They're integrated, they've got options. And so

329
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,440
once again it's the wealthy and the elites taking advantage of,

330
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,440
you know, getting rich off the backs of the middle

331
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,720
class of this country, and China taking full advantage of it.

332
00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:19,960
That's why the Larry Finks of the world step up

333
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,359
and try to support him so much. Right, And oh no,

334
00:17:22,519 --> 00:17:25,440
China's goal of China's the way it is, and it's

335
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,119
just all nonsense. I mean, if you took away China's

336
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,119
ability to steal our ip and steal our code and

337
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,240
do all that, I mean, they'd still be manufacturing toys

338
00:17:34,559 --> 00:17:38,119
right right now. Do they have a greater capability today? Yeah,

339
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,559
because we've done nothing right. The things they did with

340
00:17:40,599 --> 00:17:42,519
deep Sea got to scare their living crap out.

341
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: Of people, right, And so the I love what you

342
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,759
said about the result of this goes very very badly.

343
00:17:50,039 --> 00:17:52,440
Is very similar to if we did nothing, which is

344
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,440
eventually China takes over and that's very very bad. There's

345
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,119
one piece to this that has me concerned because there's

346
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,119
a set prior to netic warfare that they could take.

347
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,799
Remind me to get to that. But let me let

348
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:06,599
me just ask you. So Trump comes out, he does

349
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,920
the tariffs for everybody, a bunch of nations. Israel's over here,

350
00:18:11,079 --> 00:18:14,160
Vietnam's over here, and a bunch of nations over here. Okay,

351
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,079
let's talk, let's talk. Let's work this out. And Trump said,

352
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,680
don't retaliate. It's gonna get worse if you retaliate. Just

353
00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:23,359
you know, understand, We're just gonna level the playing field.

354
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,920
He waves that, and and they're all the muckingbird media.

355
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,920
One Trump blinked, Really, the guy who wrote art of

356
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,480
the deal blinked, I don't think so. I think he

357
00:18:34,599 --> 00:18:39,400
isolated China. And because that move happened the second China says, Okay,

358
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:40,799
we're gonna double the tariff.

359
00:18:40,839 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 3: We're gonna go at you.

360
00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: No, Hollywood movies, We're gonna tariff for movies. Then Trump

361
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,759
says ninety day pause for everybody else, and you think

362
00:18:47,799 --> 00:18:49,720
this guy will will alle it again. I mean that's

363
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,160
a check raise basically, Yeah, if we're gonna take orker

364
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,880
metal or that's a check raise. And from check China

365
00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:01,799
China raised, and Trump's like right yep, called race right well,

366
00:19:01,839 --> 00:19:05,359
and do you think that's do you think that's part

367
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,279
of the master class that he put China on an islands?

368
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,599
Everyone else has it pause, everyone else has disigotiate, but

369
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,279
not China.

370
00:19:13,559 --> 00:19:18,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and again, I it's it's funny because I'll be

371
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,559
honest with you, his negotiating style scary to me just

372
00:19:22,599 --> 00:19:25,960
because it is so aggressive. Yeah, I mean it's it's

373
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,960
but the results are really hard to argue with, at

374
00:19:29,039 --> 00:19:31,880
least so far. So if we look at it, you know,

375
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:33,839
I'm listening to some people that would be in the

376
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,839
know about these things, not in the meetings, but people

377
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,079
the minute he announced those tariffs, DC like turned into

378
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,079
like a turnstyle. Everybody and their mother was sending their

379
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,720
emissaries in there to deal And I just don't think

380
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,519
I kinda I'm sure there are some of our allies

381
00:19:50,559 --> 00:19:53,039
that we put off. I'm sure. Well, I looked at

382
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:54,440
some of the tariffs that went out, and I thought

383
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,079
to myself on some of them, I was like, that's

384
00:19:56,079 --> 00:19:56,880
not fair.

385
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,519
Speaker 1: Like there was, But there's also a deal where.

386
00:20:01,039 --> 00:20:03,559
Speaker 3: I think you got to put people on notice, you know,

387
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,240
and just say, hey, guys, you've been living off this

388
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,000
credit card for too long. It's done. I'm cutting it

389
00:20:09,079 --> 00:20:11,640
up right in front of you, and then going behind

390
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,359
the closed doors and going, hey, you guys are our friends.

391
00:20:14,599 --> 00:20:17,000
We were doing that to leverage against China. We have

392
00:20:17,079 --> 00:20:19,599
no intention of doing that to you. We're not booking,

393
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,240
And I'm assuming that's what's happening behind closed doors. And

394
00:20:23,279 --> 00:20:26,400
when you hear about the interactions, that's another thing you're

395
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,079
not even gonna hear about from And I think it's

396
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:30,720
kind of amazing. It's another thing you're not gonna hear

397
00:20:30,759 --> 00:20:33,839
from the mainstream media. Is there's people in the know,

398
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,279
fairly widespread reports that communication between Trump and Z hasn't

399
00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:42,559
even broken down yet, Like so it isn't it isn't, Hey.

400
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: You know, we're done with you.

401
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 3: Trump Trump isn't you know what I mean that he's

402
00:20:46,559 --> 00:20:49,720
in a lot of ways, he's more amicable and more

403
00:20:49,799 --> 00:20:53,319
genial than Clinton was in negotiation, he has.

404
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: A habit of when people are dictatorial, he can read

405
00:20:58,039 --> 00:20:58,480
an ego.

406
00:20:59,039 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so he's you know, oh yeah.

407
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: She's great and you know, we're working hard, and and

408
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,720
he can he can be ingratiating. The man got where

409
00:21:07,759 --> 00:21:09,599
he's at. Yes, he inherited a bunch of money. I

410
00:21:09,599 --> 00:21:12,960
don't want to suddenly become you know, Trump fanatic. And

411
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,799
he did it all on his own. He inherited a

412
00:21:14,839 --> 00:21:18,759
ton of money. And yet he can be ingratiating. I've

413
00:21:18,759 --> 00:21:20,480
talked to people who've met him, and he can be very,

414
00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:24,880
very ingratiating. Yeah, so he gets this up. China to

415
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:28,559
this point, their big move is movies. And here's part

416
00:21:28,559 --> 00:21:31,000
of me, like from a from a godly perspective, a

417
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,240
we're funding a truly ungodly regime. China is not the people,

418
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,640
but that regime they really do have have death camps.

419
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:44,240
They really are murdering people for their organs. That that's real. Yeah,

420
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,079
selling hair, that's real. That that happens people in prison

421
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,359
camps because they did at a low social credit score.

422
00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,880
And that's that's all very very real. But so what

423
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,480
if not everybody can afford one hundred and twenty four

424
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,119
into Big Green TV, And so what if we don't

425
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,559
get to export the latest Hollywood movie. They might need

426
00:22:03,599 --> 00:22:05,799
to make movies for Americans because the Chinese market's a

427
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,119
big padding for them because people go watch, you know,

428
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,079
just about anything because it's from America, and they CeNSE

429
00:22:11,079 --> 00:22:13,240
you the movies over there. And so what if kids

430
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,200
spend less time on video games? And so what if

431
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,720
iPhones cost thirty thousand bucks? I think we'll end up

432
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,079
with a simple phone, like a cricket phone. And guess what,

433
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,559
you might be a better in a better state of

434
00:22:24,599 --> 00:22:27,640
being spiritually. People might spend time with their families. They

435
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,200
might be not staring at a wall sized TV for

436
00:22:30,279 --> 00:22:32,839
the rest of their life. You think China doesn't know

437
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,559
these things? Yeah, or but they don't know that making

438
00:22:36,599 --> 00:22:38,839
all this stuff incredibly cheap and easy to buy is

439
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,119
hurting America. You don't have their kids over there on

440
00:22:42,279 --> 00:22:44,200
video games fifteen hours a day. And if they are,

441
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:48,759
it's because they're solving calculus problems, right right, Yeah, y'uring

442
00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:50,799
the video game. You know what's your game? Oh, I'm

443
00:22:50,799 --> 00:22:53,240
building a nuclear semiconductor that you can put in your hand.

444
00:22:54,079 --> 00:22:59,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, So no, it's a panic. Yeah, Well, and it's

445
00:22:59,599 --> 00:23:02,039
all meat. It's all media induced, and media is funded

446
00:23:02,039 --> 00:23:04,440
by who right and the media. The other thing is,

447
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,319
if you haven't figured this out, media is not freaking

448
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,400
out right now because they understand this better than everybody else,

449
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,000
and they understand the true implications. They're freaking out right

450
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,480
now because their corporate sponsors are telling them to right.

451
00:23:15,519 --> 00:23:18,880
That's that's why they're freaking out right. It and and

452
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,480
it's and it's plain and simply obvious. And the other

453
00:23:21,519 --> 00:23:24,160
thing is there is this the other The other thing

454
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,720
I found hilarious about this whole thing is you have

455
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:30,759
a scenario going on in this country where wages are

456
00:23:30,799 --> 00:23:33,359
going up. Now I'm not giving all that credit Trump,

457
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,240
but you've got wages going up at a greater pace

458
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,519
than they have at any point in the last twenty years.

459
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,000
And then Trump's policy is hitting the stock market, so

460
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,960
wages up, rich people in stocks going down. I thought

461
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:50,680
that was liberal nirvana right right now, all of a sudden,

462
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:56,039
we define economic decisions by short term stock market gyrations,

463
00:23:56,839 --> 00:23:57,200
right like.

464
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,799
Speaker 1: This is this is I hear conservatives like aw Peterson.

465
00:24:01,039 --> 00:24:04,480
He he's a Libertariti's in Congress for a while. He's

466
00:24:04,519 --> 00:24:06,599
a very smart guy. He put out this note through

467
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,599
the day. Oh okay, so all conservative are Bernie Sanders. Now, no,

468
00:24:10,079 --> 00:24:13,039
because what we're not saying is go seize everybody's wealth

469
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:17,000
and redistribute it and be a redistributive. What we're saying

470
00:24:17,079 --> 00:24:21,480
is no, big government has become big business, and big

471
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:25,960
business is big government. It's not free markets. This is fascism, right,

472
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,680
We're not becoming socialists. We're living in reality saying Bernie,

473
00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:33,160
big government is big business. No, that's that's literally what

474
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,799
we're being accused of. Because you and I talk about

475
00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:38,559
this disparity. Now we're socialists, my god.

476
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:40,279
Speaker 3: And it's because there And I don't mean to sound

477
00:24:40,279 --> 00:24:42,720
like an arrogant jerk when I say this, but I

478
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,200
was talking to somebody else on another interview today and

479
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,039
I said, look, here's here's the plain truth of it.

480
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: The vast majority of people.

481
00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:53,039
Speaker 3: You hear talking, even on financial shows, don't know they're

482
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,039
from a hole in the ground. And and it does

483
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,279
not stop their willingness to talk about the subject at all.

484
00:24:59,519 --> 00:25:02,119
And like for this guy, if he and I had

485
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,160
an economic debate, it would be very very short, and

486
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,319
I would look at him and go, you want us

487
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:11,240
to practice free trade? Practices with a country that has

488
00:25:11,319 --> 00:25:16,319
communist and protectionist policies, you're an idiot. That's not free trade.

489
00:25:16,599 --> 00:25:18,279
Speaker 1: That's called exploitative trade.

490
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,079
Speaker 3: That's literally like leaving your back door open and yelling

491
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,599
for somebody to come in and rob your house. Free

492
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,160
trade trade.

493
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, And this is like an NFL football game or

494
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,079
a football game where your team, you're eleven guys, you're

495
00:25:31,079 --> 00:25:33,720
an offense, and you cross the fifty yard line and

496
00:25:33,759 --> 00:25:37,000
the other team's like, okay, stop, yeah, no, won Well

497
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,240
you don't get to go any further. You have to

498
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,759
throw a touchdown passes from here, or you have to

499
00:25:42,839 --> 00:25:46,839
kick right. But you just ran the ball done number

500
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,400
one yard line and went in for a touchdown. Yeah.

501
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 3: So the analogy I used is I was like the

502
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,000
guys making that argument. It would be the same argument

503
00:25:57,039 --> 00:25:58,880
as if we were looking at the NFL and thirty

504
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,759
two teams and we said, you know what, we're gonna

505
00:26:00,799 --> 00:26:03,799
let this team not get tested for performance enhancing drugs,

506
00:26:04,039 --> 00:26:06,480
and then five years later we look down and go, boy,

507
00:26:06,519 --> 00:26:09,000
they must have some GM or head coach. They've won

508
00:26:09,079 --> 00:26:12,279
five Super Bowls in a row. Look at that, and

509
00:26:12,319 --> 00:26:15,119
then we go slour gap, Yeah, and they go, they're cheating,

510
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,640
and then that guy whatever his name was, would be like,

511
00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:21,279
you're just a poor sport man. You're just yeah and

512
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,920
well by yeah, and you're obviously racist. But I mean

513
00:26:24,799 --> 00:26:26,920
even some of these, like I heard Ben Shapiro come

514
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,119
out and talk on this subject, I literally had to

515
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,039
turn it off. I go, you know, I got a

516
00:26:31,079 --> 00:26:34,160
lot of respect for Ben. Once again, another really brilliant

517
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:38,240
guy that knows nothing about finance and investing and he

518
00:26:38,279 --> 00:26:40,599
shouldn't talk about it because it's embarrassing to hear him.

519
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,279
Speaker 1: But it gets back to his distaste for Trump in

520
00:26:44,319 --> 00:26:46,759
my mind that I don't think Ben's and look, I mean,

521
00:26:46,799 --> 00:26:48,799
you don't have to like the guy's personality, but there's

522
00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:51,440
sort of this reflection thing I want to get into

523
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,000
any more than you want to talk about on this

524
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,759
and some of the bad takes you've seen, because there's

525
00:26:56,759 --> 00:26:58,960
been some utterly, utterly bad takes. The biggest one for

526
00:26:59,079 --> 00:27:03,039
me was a five minute episode or five minutes segment

527
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:04,839
on Good Morning America. I'll tell you about this just

528
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,640
a second, and then I want to offer you a

529
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,599
thought that a step before kinetic warfare, because there is

530
00:27:10,599 --> 00:27:13,039
a piece of this that does worry me, and it's

531
00:27:13,039 --> 00:27:14,640
some of this like I'm gonna step for a second.

532
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,319
Speaker 3: Hold on, just stay there, don't go anywhere. Just just

533
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:18,960
stay in air, don't you.

534
00:27:19,319 --> 00:27:24,039
Speaker 1: Don't you disappear. People think and they doubt me about stuff.

535
00:27:24,079 --> 00:27:26,480
They doubt me, all right, So this is not by

536
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,519
the way I've been traveling through. I'm not in customs yet,

537
00:27:29,559 --> 00:27:31,559
but I know I'm gonna get tagged. I've got checked

538
00:27:31,599 --> 00:27:33,680
three times now because I take pink sea salt with

539
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,880
me when I travel. CSA does not like pink sea salt,

540
00:27:37,039 --> 00:27:39,839
so I put it in my water this right here.

541
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,480
You look at it like I'm a crazy man. What?

542
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 3: No, Why?

543
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 1: What pink sea salt? What is their issue with pink sealed?

544
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,359
I drink four hundred ounces of water a day. If

545
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,240
I don't put sink pink sea salt in it, my

546
00:27:51,279 --> 00:27:53,200
electrolyts are out. And I'm.

547
00:27:54,559 --> 00:27:56,400
Speaker 3: Huh no, no, I'm saying, TSA. Why would they have a

548
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:57,960
problem with pink sea salt.

549
00:27:58,799 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. But every single time we're looking at this,

550
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,920
and I've got creatin over here, and creatin looks like cocaine.

551
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,799
They don't care about that, probably because they don't see

552
00:28:08,839 --> 00:28:11,240
a lot but this is right here. This is me

553
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,640
traveling with bioptimizers mass eides. So for people who think

554
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,319
I don't do this, that's what this is. And the

555
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,759
reason I do that is because I've worked really really

556
00:28:19,799 --> 00:28:23,200
hard to put on muscle as an older cat, and

557
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,720
that's super hard. And by the way, it starts with

558
00:28:25,839 --> 00:28:28,839
maintaining the muscle you have. If you are in a

559
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,400
hole and you want to get out of the hole,

560
00:28:31,839 --> 00:28:35,400
stop digging, like stand on the solid ground. So if

561
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,799
you're of a certain age and you want to be healthy,

562
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,640
you want to be athletic, or you want to live longer,

563
00:28:39,759 --> 00:28:42,440
or you want to be more comfortable, that requires having

564
00:28:42,519 --> 00:28:46,400
good muscle composition. Mass seams can help you accomplish that.

565
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,519
It's very simple. All the protein eats like I could

566
00:28:49,559 --> 00:28:51,240
go get I guess I travel with way protein. They

567
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,359
don't like that stuff you and I'm traveling with wave protein.

568
00:28:55,039 --> 00:28:58,359
That is great. And what mass seams does is by

569
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,839
sixteen hundred times it increases the amounts of amino acids

570
00:29:02,839 --> 00:29:05,880
in your body side by side test at Birchanosh University

571
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,720
and in BOSSI. That's a big deal because it's amino

572
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,640
acids that build muscle, not protein. So I travel with

573
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,960
this stuff and I take this a couple of times

574
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,240
a day so that I keep the muscle I have

575
00:29:17,319 --> 00:29:19,920
and can put on more good. At boptimizures dot com

00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,480
the difference when I'm not on it because sometimes we

587

run out. But I subscribe now, I'm I subscribe to

00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,640
So let me say this, and then a little bit

590
00:29:56,759 --> 00:29:59,200
discombinated because I'm sitting in a hotel room and there's

591
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,359
a guy outside saying, can you speak more quietly. I'm

592
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:09,799
doing a show, sir. I am. I'm a podcaster and

593
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:14,920
radio host. I'm very important, you see. I think it's

594
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:15,640
I don't know.

595
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:16,799
Speaker 3: I don't know if you've been told.

596
00:30:16,799 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: I know I'm getting a call from the security sir.

597
00:30:18,559 --> 00:30:23,680
Can you you know I am very very important. The

598
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,200
worst take I saw was a five minute segment on

599
00:30:28,279 --> 00:30:31,640
Good Morning America the price for flat screening TVs could

600
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:36,000
skyrocket above ten thousand dollars. And video games.

601
00:30:36,039 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 3: This is a Wii.

602
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,559
Speaker 1: I talked to my daughter about her Wei, and I

603
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,079
told her that we might not be able to afford

604
00:30:41,119 --> 00:30:44,680
the new games and the tears. And they're showing kids, Zach.

605
00:30:44,799 --> 00:30:48,759
They're showing kids in public in parks on their Wis

606
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,599
and their and their Nintendo's and all the handheld devices.

607
00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:56,759
And they think they're making the case that I'm going

608
00:30:56,839 --> 00:30:59,000
to go, oh my gosh, this is a nightmare. These

609
00:30:59,079 --> 00:31:01,160
kids aren't going to have these aims and these devices

610
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,839
and these TVs to your God. And they think they're

611
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,160
they And I know that they're probably there's a population

612
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:13,920
out there going mav materiv video games. But for rational

613
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,119
human beings who would like to see humanity, and at

614
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:22,359
least American humanity, get back to reading a book or

615
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,720
thinking some deep thoughts or making things.

616
00:31:25,279 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 3: They're not only making.

617
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: The case that we should let that we should keep

618
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,000
the tariffs of this stuff.

619
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:36,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, so so the let's yeah, let's dissect that for

620
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:39,880
a second. So first of all, I think you're looking

621
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,720
at the wrong thing. I'm a little more concerned when

622
00:31:42,759 --> 00:31:45,720
I see the people that are frozen in place and

623
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:48,319
folded in half because of fentanyl abuse, you know, that whole,

624
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:53,480
That that whole. When I see fecal matter all over sidewalks,

625
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,440
when I see entire towns that.

626
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,839
Speaker 1: Have just been eroded, I find that to be.

627
00:31:58,799 --> 00:32:02,359
Speaker 3: A little more compelling then whether my kid's gonna be

628
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,200
able to get the new Smash Brothers game from Here's

629
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:05,799
the other thing.

630
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: Look around.

631
00:32:08,039 --> 00:32:11,599
Speaker 3: Do you realize how fast and nimble our economy is.

632
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,160
You don't think if people have money to burn out

633
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,519
of their pocket that these companies are going to figure

634
00:32:16,519 --> 00:32:23,079
out quick ways to reroute manufacturing. I mean, come on, this.

635
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,279
Speaker 1: Is this is the piece that drives me nuts. I

636
00:32:24,279 --> 00:32:28,079
had this debate with this guy on YouTube, and because

637
00:32:28,119 --> 00:32:30,440
you know, everyone there's a finance expert, and I fully

638
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:34,039
admits I'm not a finance expert, but I can observe culture.

639
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,960
But see, the iPhone is projected to cost five thousand

640
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,839
dollars right now, there are people at Google, at Facebook,

641
00:32:42,319 --> 00:32:46,039
at x Dash, Twitter, and they're been tasked with figure

642
00:32:46,039 --> 00:32:47,599
out how quickly we can get a phone to market.

643
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,359
Figure out how we're not gonna have screws in it. Oh,

644
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,319
that's the screws of the problem. I would get to

645
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,400
this market. Is there a startup processor company. Find me

646
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,200
the startup processor company and buy them, right that's got

647
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,319
the great microprocessors for the phones. Buy them. If you

648
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:09,119
have these companies rolling in cash because of their their

649
00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:13,119
their insane pe value and they're you know, sixty times

650
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,599
revenue and a per month, things are going up, right,

651
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,640
they're on the automatic teat through the ETFs and they're

652
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,839
getting forty percent of our money every month. Anyway, what

653
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,519
do they care? Find need the plus that's or company,

654
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,720
the startup company. Eliminate the screws. Get me a phone

655
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,720
that's one hundred percent three D printed. I don't want

656
00:33:30,839 --> 00:33:34,640
human beings touching it. Find me plastic that looks like glass.

657
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:38,160
Get me a nine hundred dollars phone in here right now,

658
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,319
and let's put an open source X software on it,

659
00:33:42,559 --> 00:33:46,119
and let's use X as a distribution platform for the apps.

660
00:33:46,559 --> 00:33:48,400
And I bet you Elon Musk could have a phone

661
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,319
to market in a nine hundred to eighteen hundred dollars

662
00:33:52,079 --> 00:33:55,079
range within about a year to eighteen months if you

663
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:56,279
really really had to.

664
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 3: Well, it's another interesting idea. You don't have the big companies,

665
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:03,359
and they're not blameless. I know they've done the kind

666
00:34:03,359 --> 00:34:05,279
of shady things to your show. But there's a big

667
00:34:05,359 --> 00:34:08,400
tech company out there that has virtually no business with

668
00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:12,239
China whatsoever. I mean almost none, and they have a

669
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,840
really good phone platform. It's called Droid, it's called Google.

670
00:34:16,039 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 1: Okay.

671
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 3: Now, I'm sure they still get a big part of

672
00:34:18,519 --> 00:34:21,760
it manufactured in China, But what I'm saying is when

673
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,079
you're not reliant on the Chinese market, it makes it

674
00:34:25,119 --> 00:34:27,639
a heck of a lot easier to switch. They also

675
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,280
manufacture way less of the phones. I've been arguing for

676
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,960
a long time that I actually thought a window was

677
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:37,159
opening for somebody to take the Droid platform or another

678
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,639
you know, create come up with another platform because Apple's slipping,

679
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,079
the quality of the products has gone down. I don't

680
00:34:43,119 --> 00:34:46,679
like funding them. I don't like the fact that they

681
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,679
talk about a company that could afford to build facilities

682
00:34:50,679 --> 00:34:52,840
here in the United States and could work with the

683
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,719
US government get tax breaks to make it.

684
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: You know, from out of company it's got what one.

685
00:34:56,679 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 3: Hundred and eighty two hundred billion on the balance sheet

686
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,360
ranking in you know, thirty five billion a year? No,

687
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,519
what are that ninety three billion a year in profit?

688
00:35:05,039 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: Okay?

689
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,159
Speaker 3: And how much of that has come off the back

690
00:35:07,159 --> 00:35:09,639
of the American consumer? You can't give back with a

691
00:35:09,679 --> 00:35:13,639
manufacturing facility that complete with tax breaks with you come

692
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,599
on right, right, and we don't want our shareholders to

693
00:35:16,599 --> 00:35:19,400
get hurt. How about the citizens in your country? How

694
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:20,320
about those people?

695
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: Right right?

696
00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,119
Speaker 3: And so what So the cost of the iPhone goes

697
00:35:24,159 --> 00:35:27,000
up twenty five hundred, First of all, won't be five grand,

698
00:35:27,159 --> 00:35:30,079
that's scare tactics. But so it's twenty You guys, you

699
00:35:30,159 --> 00:35:33,159
finance the phones anyway, So just buy a phone one

700
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,000
year less often than you do, and you offset the

701
00:35:35,039 --> 00:35:39,480
cost like I did. This is my thing, is everybody

702
00:35:39,519 --> 00:35:41,800
once again you and I have had these conversations again,

703
00:35:42,039 --> 00:35:45,400
and it's these childish arguments where people act like there

704
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,079
is a solution that has no cost, you know, and

705
00:35:49,119 --> 00:35:51,199
no pain and no pain, and you look at them

706
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,559
and go, good, guys, I don't want the cost of

707
00:35:53,599 --> 00:35:55,920
my phone to go up a grand either, But what

708
00:35:56,119 --> 00:35:59,360
is the alternative? Right? And if you have a way

709
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,760
to get China to come to the table like nobody

710
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,920
has over the last twenty five years without being willing

711
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,239
to endure some economic pain, I'm all ears okay, but

712
00:36:09,599 --> 00:36:12,639
unless you want to be speaking Mandarin twenty five years now,

713
00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:13,320
you don't have a.

714
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 1: Choice, right, right, And here's if you boil down the

715
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,719
argument that these guys are making. It's this, Uh, change

716
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:26,119
is hard. Don't change, It's super hard, like the eor. No,

717
00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:32,360
change is super hard. I don't want to change. But

718
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:34,760
I'm going to tell you. I need to tell you

719
00:36:35,199 --> 00:36:38,400
one thing that I think is going to concern you. Okay,

720
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,800
it's a step before cadetic warfare. Did I cut you

721
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,079
off because you look like you were going to say

722
00:36:42,079 --> 00:36:43,679
something about e or No?

723
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:46,639
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, how good? I'm good? Right, So let me.

724
00:36:46,559 --> 00:36:48,159
Speaker 1: Remind you guys that there are people who've been in

725
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,639
real war and they would not like to see kidetic warfare.

726
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,280
My friend Kim Krukchank in fact, you remember this. We

727
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,840
were talking about all the Chinese nationals that seem to

728
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,400
start companies in extra American military bases. That's interesting. I

729
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:05,360
guess what they are. They're transportation companies, and they're laundry companies.

730
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:09,119
And guess who their main clients are airports, military races.

731
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,760
That's so weird, isn't it. So Tim has been warning

732
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,239
forever about Hey, these guys are posturing if they put

733
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,440
people here that can go Connecticut any time. But doesn't

734
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:21,000
mean that Tim's going back to fighting. He's got a

735
00:37:21,039 --> 00:37:24,079
coffee company to run. He loves what Trump is doing

736
00:37:24,119 --> 00:37:26,920
economically and socially, and so he created this beg of

737
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,800
coffee called Golden Age, and you see this eagle on

738
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,159
its and this beautiful wings holding America.

739
00:37:33,159 --> 00:37:33,400
Speaker 2: Again.

740
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 1: Tim is jazz for this. So the coffee is a

741
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,039
special roast as well. But the bag's a collectible item

742
00:37:39,079 --> 00:37:41,239
and it's a limited times to go to Bonefrog Coffee

743
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,800
dot com slash Todd use promo cod toad to get

744
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,239
ten percent off first purchase, fifteen percent off subscription coffee

745
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,639
and buy the buy for just the bag. The bag

746
00:37:49,679 --> 00:37:52,880
is killer. It's a moment in time. And if you

747
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,000
have a chance to talk to Tim, ask him about

748
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,480
the number of Chinese national companies all around these airports,

749
00:37:59,519 --> 00:38:03,360
Like I'm in and I remember talking through another guy,

750
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,079
a vet Michael O'Brien's on the show that he was

751
00:38:06,119 --> 00:38:08,519
a special FORTSS guy. Dallas is one of the main

752
00:38:08,559 --> 00:38:12,039
places for this where there's Chinese nationals with businesses here.

753
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,239
All right, here's my concerns. Act we China has done something.

754
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,880
You've talked about the nefariousness of buying back their currency

755
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,760
and being a lockdown economy while they're pretending to be

756
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,679
free trade and the number one exporter and trapping companies.

757
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,239
Now we own you because you can't make your product

758
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,400
to wear because you'll lose your margin, and using capitalism

759
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,960
against capitalism. It's classic maoism and far far longer game

760
00:38:37,039 --> 00:38:39,639
thinking than we are. President Trump has gone all in

761
00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:44,760
or just about and he has to someone has to

762
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:49,079
do this to stop this. Here's what the world needs

763
00:38:49,079 --> 00:38:52,559
to get behind right now, America. About ninety percent of

764
00:38:52,559 --> 00:38:58,119
the precursors for antidepressants and anti anxiety drugs are made

765
00:38:58,119 --> 00:39:02,440
in China, and there is about it's about, believe it

766
00:39:02,519 --> 00:39:07,280
or not, about ninety million Americans take these and under

767
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,400
the age of about we do the ages of like

768
00:39:10,519 --> 00:39:14,239
thirteen and twenty five. There are populations where eighty percent

769
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:19,280
of kids are taking these China were to decide we're

770
00:39:19,639 --> 00:39:24,719
gonna go ahead and stop making that you be around

771
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,960
someone who's become addicted to these fine drugs that are

772
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,719
dear friends at Farma make that love China that you know,

773
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,239
member Pfizer helped them figure out how to tie the

774
00:39:34,599 --> 00:39:37,880
how to put together the social credit system. Pfizer did that.

775
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,239
You want to see the collapse of the world. Get

776
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,199
into your uber when the guys twenty four hours without

777
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,599
his zoloft or twenty four hours without his lamech dol

778
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:53,360
and you were gonna hear nine to one to one

779
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:57,079
calls of and I'm not trying to be morbid of

780
00:39:57,159 --> 00:40:01,159
thirteen year olds trying to stab their moms in bathrooms.

781
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 2: That that.

782
00:40:02,559 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: To me right now this instance RFKA Junior not a

783
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:09,400
big fan of pharma. Praise God for that. He needs

784
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,880
to get the pharma companies in a room and he

785
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,400
needs to say, you got these kids addicted to this stuff,

786
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,639
You're going to figure out how to get the precursors

787
00:40:16,679 --> 00:40:19,039
made here. And I really don't care about your profit margin,

788
00:40:19,199 --> 00:40:21,039
not even a little bit. You decided to get in

789
00:40:21,079 --> 00:40:25,360
bed with the double I mean that's got to happen. Yeah, yeah.

790
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 3: And the other thing is that man. And again I'm

791
00:40:32,079 --> 00:40:34,440
not cheering for this, but maybe it's not a bad

792
00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,400
thing if the price of that stuff goes way up.

793
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,599
When you look at the amount of kids on this

794
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:44,519
the farm, it's just it is disgusting. It is And

795
00:40:44,559 --> 00:40:46,639
I don't you know, it's like you're singing the same

796
00:40:46,679 --> 00:40:49,559
old song and people are used to Again. It's one

797
00:40:49,559 --> 00:40:51,559
of the reasons why I like to explain exactly what

798
00:40:51,679 --> 00:40:56,079
China did so people understand. You hear so much hyperbolean

799
00:40:56,119 --> 00:40:59,440
hot takes, you don't realize how disgusting it is and

800
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,480
how evil is and you look at I mean, for instance,

801
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:08,320
I don't think it's any accident that they want now

802
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,920
they manufacture everything, but I don't think it's any accident

803
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,119
that they are manufacturing those precursors for as cheap as

804
00:41:14,159 --> 00:41:16,559
they are. Now, let's go and let's go look at

805
00:41:16,559 --> 00:41:18,960
the percentage of Chinese kids that are on those same drugs.

806
00:41:20,079 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 1: Right, and we go right back to this comparison of

807
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,280
Chinese TikTok versus American TikTok. Yep, Chinese TikTok is math

808
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:30,960
problems and the Great Revolution and Chinese supremacy, and over here,

809
00:41:31,039 --> 00:41:33,480
it's hey, what happens if you decide to shove a

810
00:41:33,679 --> 00:41:35,679
watermelon up he or something? You know?

811
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,079
Speaker 3: This is here's a great point that I would shove

812
00:41:38,119 --> 00:41:40,360
back at that guy that made that ridiculous comment you

813
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,360
said about being a libertarian, all that kind of stuff.

814
00:41:44,199 --> 00:41:49,880
If China was anywhere close to an honest player, why

815
00:41:50,119 --> 00:41:53,400
would they be pumping what they know to be poison

816
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,360
into one of their top trading partners. Right. That tells

817
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,400
you everything you need to know, because if they were

818
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:04,719
interested in trade, destroying us would not be a priority.

819
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,679
Speaker 1: Right they. Look, here's something people, I beg you to

820
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:14,360
understand about Maoists. Satan is smart, he is clever, he's scheming,

821
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:18,599
he's willing to do anything. And I don't know that

822
00:42:18,639 --> 00:42:21,599
these people are actively Satanists, but they are against Jesus.

823
00:42:22,159 --> 00:42:25,079
You're with me or against me, and they are brilliant

824
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:30,360
at making money to burn things down. Right, why should

825
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,880
look at look at what the Taliban was doing shoving

826
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,239
Heroin over here with the help of Baracusine Obama and

827
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,159
Joe Biden, and they say, hey, why are we paying

828
00:42:38,159 --> 00:42:42,440
for our weapons? Why don't we have the Americans do it? Right,

829
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,400
Why don't we just sell drugs to them. You have

830
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,800
people over here in our country who are selling things

831
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,519
like like counterfeit cigarettes. Hamas, this is a thing. Hamas says,

832
00:42:51,559 --> 00:42:54,800
they sell counterfeit cigarettes because cigarettes are expensive. They send

833
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,719
that money home to buy their weapons. She just looks

834
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:02,880
at that and goes small timers. Yea, yeah, yeah, I shoot,

835
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:05,199
how this is done? You put on the suits and

836
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,440
the tie and you go into tour San Francisco, but

837
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,719
that it has been cleaned up for three days. And

838
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,159
Gavin knew some shut down the traffic. And in Seattle,

839
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,039
what's his name, the former mayor there shut down the traffic.

840
00:43:16,079 --> 00:43:18,679
The guy who was also in a likelihood of pedophile

841
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:23,440
who adopted by the way, Yeah, yeah, I don't even

842
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,199
want to remember, I know, yeah, And they shut down

843
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:31,960
the freeways for him. So he is a typical, I think,

844
00:43:32,199 --> 00:43:36,920
passively satanic maoist who's brilliant at getting paid to burn

845
00:43:37,039 --> 00:43:40,679
their countries down and doing it at a top, top level.

846
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,360
Look at the vertical and horizontal integration. I was at

847
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,840
a airport. I'm watching someone check and they were doing

848
00:43:49,079 --> 00:43:51,800
some op stuff. So they're down on the tarmac and

849
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,639
they came up and they were like checking out the

850
00:43:54,639 --> 00:43:56,920
plane or something, and just set of curiousity, I walk by,

851
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:01,760
What do I see Lenovo laptop? There are Lenovo laptops

852
00:44:02,079 --> 00:44:06,320
running airplanes in our country, right, And if this goes kinetic,

853
00:44:07,159 --> 00:44:09,000
I believe in our men and women in the military

854
00:44:09,039 --> 00:44:12,280
without reservation. They are the best, and they're the bravest,

855
00:44:12,519 --> 00:44:16,880
and they're the best trained, and they're gonna win. But

856
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,840
what she probably has planned around here a little Lenovo's

857
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,360
are off, all the spy systems are on, all the

858
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,559
back doors to the iPhones are turned on.

859
00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:27,519
Speaker 3: Right.

860
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:32,079
Speaker 1: You think that that pager thing in the Iranian nuclear thing,

861
00:44:32,119 --> 00:44:34,960
that the big deal where the Israel activated the pagers

862
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:36,480
and blue people up. We think it was Israel and

863
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,360
maybe the CIA. You wait and see the back door

864
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,159
as they have with our stuff. So yeah, I President

865
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,400
Trump's planning ahead on that well.

866
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:49,280
Speaker 3: And if you don't think that they have offensive military desires,

867
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,199
wishes designs, just go explain to the South China see

868
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,800
to me. Just go go And if you don't know

869
00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,599
what I'm talking about, go google China, South South China

870
00:45:00,639 --> 00:45:02,840
see and islands. Just go do that.

871
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 1: He's talking about that those are those those are for golf.

872
00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 3: Oh, of course, of course they are shots, all right.

873
00:45:11,079 --> 00:45:14,960
It's it's so ridiculous, and we have ignored it. And

874
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,519
the reason we have ignored it is because the source

875
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:22,840
of our information comes from corporate funded media outlets who

876
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,920
are run by a bunch of morons, right, I mean

877
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,159
just and and that's one of the things also that like,

878
00:45:28,639 --> 00:45:30,760
it kills me that we're at a place and this

879
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,880
is why I love the way new media is going.

880
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:35,400
Journalists are some of the dumbest people on the face

881
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,000
of the earth, not really good ones. And if there's

882
00:45:37,039 --> 00:45:39,159
good ones listening, which I'm sure they are, there aren't.

883
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:44,840
But all too often these modern mainstream journalists the only

884
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,320
thing they know is journalism and they think that makes

885
00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,119
them experts at everything. They don't ask questions, right, And

886
00:45:51,159 --> 00:45:54,000
it's just And the more you know, the more the

887
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,039
more you realize how stupid and completely uninformed these people are.

888
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,519
Not not in a way that you disagree with them,

889
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,280
not in the way that you hate them, but in

890
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,360
the way you're sitting there listening to it and going, yeah,

891
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:11,760
that's completely wrong, Like factually don't know what you're talking about.

892
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 1: Said Martha. Do you hear yourself, right, you can say

893
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,840
this on all these topics, do you hear yourself? Yeah?

894
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,199
Speaker 3: And they don't, and you know is better than I do.

895
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,559
But they don't because they all live in an echo chamber.

896
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,079
They don't. They don't realize how stupid I say it

897
00:46:30,119 --> 00:46:32,800
to people all the time. I'm like, Okay, repeat that

898
00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,719
three times out loud. I just want to make sure

899
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,239
you heard what you just said, right, And and so

900
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,159
many times they go, oh yeah, yeah, I see what

901
00:46:40,159 --> 00:46:42,079
you're saying. And you look at these journalists and go,

902
00:46:42,159 --> 00:46:45,920
oh my gosh, just take a second. What is the

903
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,239
alternative if we don't do anything with China? What does

904
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,000
that look like? What would you suggest we do? What

905
00:46:52,039 --> 00:46:54,960
do you think? Do you know what the problems are? Okay,

906
00:46:55,159 --> 00:46:57,559
do you know what the name of the premiere prior

907
00:46:57,599 --> 00:47:00,000
to Zijin Ping is. I would just shoot them right

908
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:01,360
back and put them on the spot and just go,

909
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,400
why don't you prove right here what you know? Because

910
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:05,480
I don't think you know anything?

911
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:06,079
Speaker 2: Right?

912
00:47:06,159 --> 00:47:08,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that would They'll be a great approach.

913
00:47:09,079 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 3: And it's it's so it's so frustrating because you have

914
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,079
you sit there and have to watch them answer these ridiculous,

915
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:18,280
loaded pointed questions, you know. And I love the way

916
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,559
Vance handles it. He just shoots them right back, cuts

917
00:47:20,559 --> 00:47:24,920
their legs out. Yeah, he's so so good and we're

918
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,239
going to be blessed if he is the next President's

919
00:47:28,199 --> 00:47:29,280
I think we're gonna be blessed.

920
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 1: I think he's the smartest vice president we've ever had.

921
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,000
And this really is a time to pray for President

922
00:47:34,039 --> 00:47:38,440
Trump because he's doing something here that we both said.

923
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,960
It's like all in poker. It's the most important. This

924
00:47:42,039 --> 00:47:46,280
is the most important geopolitical events in our lifetime. And

925
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:47,519
this isn't easy for America.

926
00:47:48,559 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 3: He's also he's also saying something that I am more

927
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,760
pro Trump than I was the day got elected. And

928
00:47:56,199 --> 00:47:59,880
the reason why is because you're sitting back watching a

929
00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:05,880
present risk his entire legacy and risk additional warfare or

930
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:09,960
lawfare when he leaves office. And we name how many

931
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,400
presidents out of the last hundred years, we're willing to

932
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,079
take that gambit, right.

933
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:17,199
Speaker 1: And President from to his eternal credit, said this is

934
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,000
going to hurt. Yep, this is going to be uncomfortable,

935
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,559
but stick with it. We have to do this. To me,

936
00:48:23,519 --> 00:48:26,360
this proves something beyond the shadow of a doubt that

937
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:30,679
man loves America says, Hey, listen, his portfolio is ticket

938
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:33,639
to hit too. And you're exactly right. When he's done

939
00:48:33,679 --> 00:48:35,559
in these four years, they're going to come. They're going

940
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:36,679
to try to end him.

941
00:48:37,079 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. And and there's something else I heard somebody say

942
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,840
the other day, and I've heard it before, but it's

943
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,800
it's really true. It's you know, we as Americans got

944
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,440
to figure out whether we want to die on our

945
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,119
feet or live on our knees and said, I'll I'll

946
00:48:50,159 --> 00:48:51,400
take diying on my feet any day.

947
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam. And if I'm lying on my knees, it's

948
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:57,960
because I'm praying to the Lord Jesus. Yeah, thank you

949
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,920
for coming on, my brother great, I said this sky,

950
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,400
