Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Watchdog on Wall Street podcast explaining the news coming
out of the complex worlds of finance, economics, and politics
and the impact it we'll have on everyday Americans. Author,
investment banker, consumer advocate, analyst, and trader Chris Markowski.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Donald Trump killed killed in his Davos speech yesterday, I'm
going to go out on a limb and I'm going
to see that was his greatest address that he has
ever made. Now again, people been listening to me for
a while. Okay, I'm not Sean Hannity. I don't have
Trump pom poms or a skirt. I have been very
(00:37):
critical of the man on a myriad of different things,
on many different occasions. But I'm honest. He gave a
remote address yesterday to the James Bond villains at Davos.
It started out, it started out like he was reading
he read off his first week in essence resume. It
(00:58):
was a CV for his first week and office and
spot on return to common sense. Now I am hoping,
I'm hoping that the folks over in Europe we're watching this.
I don't know. I don't know if this was televised
(01:20):
or the people in China were able to have access
to it, most certainly Xijianping did. But across the board,
across the board, the America First Agenda they put forward.
And the funny thing is, right after the speech, the
mainstream media here in the United States went out of
(01:42):
their way to find somebody, well, you know, allies are
a little worried. Oh, this person from Finland said this,
and this one said that they don't want to be
hard on the allies and tariffs bullshit, Okay, he was fair.
(02:02):
It's fair. You want to make you want to make
your products in the United States, You're going to pay
some of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world.
Were any of these European companies sad when we had
the highest corporate tax rates in the world and American
businesses were being shipped overseas. No, don he said, listen,
(02:26):
you can make them here, and you make your stuff
here in the United States if you want to, you
don't have to. We actually said that you're prerogative. But
if you're shipping it in, it's going to be more.
And explaining yeah, the amount that we pay the tariffs
that are put on our items, he just again, it's
just free and fair trade. Why is that so difficult, Well,
(02:48):
it's been difficult because many of the people that have
been running this country, many the people that are empowered,
the people part of the big club that they're tied
into all this stuff. They've got their buddies and friends
and they're collecting their big that's how they become so healthy.
He's he don't give a damn he care to tied
to any of this stuff. And you people on the
(03:08):
left do people that. Again, I don't admit, Okay, I
got some Trump derangement syndrome in the way that he
speaks to people. He hasn't been doing that for some time. Again,
I don't know what's gotten into him. But how do
you argue that this is not in our nation's best interest?
Everything that he is putting forward right now? Again, I'm impressed, okay,
(03:34):
And I don't impress easily standing up for American companies again,
this was freakin' awesome. This is what we've been saying
here on the program. He cited Apple, he cited Google,
he cited Facebook. Talking about the fines, the stupid lawsuits
(03:54):
that the European Union puts on these companies, and he
called it attacks because that's what it is, That's what
it is, because you don't freaking do anything over there.
And you know what, you know what, Europeans know this.
They're well aware of this. They know it. Okay, there
you know and you have well, you had the Spanish
(04:14):
left wing spine it the Spanish Prime minister up there
talking about the dangers of these tech companies because you
don't freaking do anything over there. Man, you don't you
become a vacation spot. Did you see that story about
Spain wanting to put a one hundred percent thinking about
put a one hundred percent tax on foreigners, non EU
(04:39):
members buying up property in Spain. Oh, you don't want
to change the look here again because we can buy
up the place because we can because we actually do
build and create stuff. Just saying there, buddy, okay, what
do you guy again? What do you guys? I mean?
I mean, I love them meats out of Spain and
(04:59):
all all that stuff, fantastic, But what exactly you guys
do there? Was what was the last big company that
you built? Anyway? Again, it just him addressing all of
the empty suits in the room again, knocking them down
(05:20):
one hundred pegs. They've got nothing again, they today searched
the media high and wide Europe, whatever it may be.
They can't say anything because it didn't say anything was inaccurate.
He was spot on. Well, let's even talk about foreign
policy and war, and again all of you left this
out there again, you code pinkers out there. Who happened
(05:41):
to you guys happen to be right when Bush was president.
By the way, I got to give you kudos on that,
talking about the horror of war and citing what he
has seen and what he knows to be true in
the Ukraine Russia conflict and how this was it necessary
and the waste, the human carnage. You're talking about buildings
(06:06):
being knocked down and you know they're saying only a
couple people being injured. He knows that's wrong, and how
awful this is and how we need to end this.
He talked about reducing nuclear weapons, mentioned that prior to
you know, to him leaving office, they had conversations between
(06:26):
Putin and Xizen Ping and himself looking to he called
a denuclearise You you left us out there. Okay, Again,
it's either about you know either you're you're just so
one issue when it comes to trans gay immigration, whatever
(06:47):
it may be. How can you not be for this
unless you're a part of the military industrial complex. This,
this this agenda that's being put forth right now is
I'm gonna be honest with it. God bless him. I
(07:08):
hope he stays safe. This is the radical type of
change that this country needs. It's similar again some of
the things that Kennedy wanted to do, and well they
killed him for it again, absolutely killed it. In my opinion,
(07:29):
Trump's greatest address. I highly recommend you watching it. It
was see he fielded some questions, uh from you know,
Steve Schwartzman, uh, Bryan Mond, Bank of America, and a
couple others, but you know, and Schwartsman talking about how
difficult it is. He's speaking to European business owners and
(07:50):
how they can't get anything done over there in Europe.
He actually talked about he owns a club and was
in Ireland and you know, they they told them how
long the permitting was going to take was five years,
and how he nixed the entire thing. This is a
type of frustration that people that actually do want to
build and create in Europe have to deal with every
single day. Why, because you guys have these empty suits
(08:14):
that don't build anything, don't create anything. Pat themselves on
the back. All of these losers. We got them in
our country too. It's like a European disease that affected
the United States in many way, shape, matter or form.
Allow these Europeans to go out there and build and create.
Let them grow their businesses, let them grow their economy.
Let me bring wages up on the European content that
(08:35):
would be fantastic. Called it out, call it out, Listen
and listen. You know, come on over. Okay, you're not
going to be allowed to do it. Way start your
business here in the United States. We welcome that. Again.
I was the static over it, and again, like I said,
(08:58):
I gotta say it one more time. Okay, I'm not
not a cheerleader. Okay, I'm not one of those, not
one of those. Again. We are equal opportunity bashers here
on the program, and you know that's the way we're
always going to be. But it was off the charts.
