Is Trump Reagan 2.0?

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is Trump the second coming of Ronald Reagan? In other words,
is he Reagan two point zero? Well, he's on the
cusp of actually doing it. Why do I say this?
Reagan's greatest achievement, arguably was collapsing the Soviet Union, burying

(00:21):
the USSR the Soviet Empire without firing a shot. Trump
now is on the cusp of actually doing the same,
this time to communist China. His trade economic war with
China has now escalated to the point it is now
a life death struggle, a battle of wills between Jijinping,

(00:46):
the strong man of China, and of course Trump. Trump
last night at midnight has has slapped one hundred and
four percent tariff on all Chinese goods and products in
rescs response to China's predatory retaliation to Trump's initial tariff
wall that he introduced several weeks ago. Beijing now says

(01:10):
they will not back down. Not only are they not
backing down, they are tripling down. Just a few hours ago,
they introduced another imposed another reciprocal tariff, this time of
eighty four percent. So Beijing is now tariffing US at
over one hundred and fifty percent. Trump says he will

(01:34):
respond in kind. In other words, we have a full
blown trade cold war with China, an economic war. And
the problem Trump is holding all the cards. Beijing may
have fundamentally miscalculated. That's the fatal mistake, the fundamental problem

(01:56):
now that they are facing. They are now low launching
a trade war with China while they're holding almost none
of the cards. While Trump is holding all of the cards.
Why because we have about a five hundred and eighty
billion dollar annual trade with China. Almost all of it

(02:16):
is Beijing dumping their goods, selling their stuff to us.
We barely sell a thing to China. In other words,
in plain English, we don't need them, they need us.
Our market is what's driving the Chinese economy. Exports everything else.

(02:39):
In China, the regime is in big trouble, a huge
property market crisis that is now weighing heavily on the
Chinese population. You have slave labor that is commonly used.
You have inflation that is rising. You have over twenty
percent unemployment among young workers, young people in their twenties. Beijing,

(03:02):
China needs to have access, unrestricted access to the American market,
or else their economy can creter and collapse. So they
can put a thousand percent tariff, a million percent tariff
on American goods. They have no leverage because we hardly

(03:22):
sell anything to them. But this one hundred and four
percent tariff, it will bury China. It will make their
goods too expensive to buy, which means their exports will
be cut off at the knees. And if China's economy suffers,
as I believe it will, as it reels from this

(03:43):
trade war and their exports tank, their economy will tank.
And if the economy tanks, they can't fund their military,
they can't keep the communist regime afloat. It will be
the end of the Communist Party. At a bare minim
it will be the end of Jijinping. He is staking

(04:04):
his entire leadership and credibility on winning this trade war,
and it is a war he cannot win. And so
top leaders in the Chinese Communist Party the CCP, may
decide to save their regime to keep their grip on power.
They have met no other choice than to drop than

(04:29):
to overthrow g to drop him like a hot potato
and overthrow him, or implement a coup. I think the
CCP is going to go down with Ji Jinping. My
personal opinion, I could be wrong. Xi has consolidated his
grip over the Chinese Communist Party. He has purged it

(04:50):
of most opposition. It is now his party, which means
if he goes down, the CCP goes down, And if
the CCP goes down, then Trump will have defeated communist
China the way Reagan defeated the communist Soviet Union without

(05:11):
firing a shot. This will change not only the destiny
of China, but the destiny of America and the world.
Trump maybe Reagan two point zero, and if he is,
and I believe he is, he will go down in
history as one of the greatest presidents ever. To President Trump,

(05:37):
you're winning your trade war. Keep your tariffs on China.
You have the boot on the CCP's throat. Stand your ground.
It's time to bring communist China to its knees.
