Here he was at the Milken Institute Global Conference last week.

Okay, so again, we are winning.

We are winning.

So what should President Trump do with regard to AI?

He certainly shouldn't make concessions to the Chinese on AI.

We're dominating them.

And President Trump is not going to make concessions on AI.

We need to continue dominating the Chinese for military reasons, for economic reasons.

Okay, now Iran.

So again, there's been an idea here that China somehow is winning with regard to this.

China is the big loser, the biggest loser with regard to the Iran situation.

I mean, Iran is the biggest loser, obviously, but China is the second biggest loser because remember, 10 to 15% of their oil was coming from Iran.

They want the Iranian regime to stand.

But at the same time, Iran is blocking oil that is mainly going to China.

Fifty four percent of all Chinese oil imports are coming from the Middle East.

And a huge percentage of that ain't going out.

We don't have a supply problem in the United States.

We have a price problem in the United States.

China has a supply problem because so much of their oil is coming from the Middle East in the first place.

So President Trump actually does have tremendous leverage with China with regard to Iran.
