The President's Daily Brief
PDB Situation Report | May 10th, 2025: Xi’s Weak Hand: U.S.-China Showdown & India And Pakistan On The Brink

We haven't had reports of Chinese pilots in Pakistan yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's the next step. Especially if this does turn into a war and India starts getting the advantage. And I think that that I don't know if this will turn into a war, but if it does, I think India eventually will start crushing Pakistan and then you'll see the Chinese there in numbers.

The Pakistanis took the Indians by surprise by downing those at least two Indian planes. I don't think India is going to let that happen again.

PDB Situation Report | May 10th, 2025: Xi’s Weak Hand: U.S.-China Showdown & India And Pakistan On The Brink

A couple of hours ago I would have said yes, that's what I expected. With Trump saying he wants a result, I'm afraid that we're going to be pressured into some sort of mutual reduction of tariffs. Remember, there's the reduction of tariffs. That is a win for China. And the reason is, our tariffs are remedies for the theft of US intellectual property and for China's predatory trade practices.

If we reduce our tariffs, this is unilateral disarmament. Because we are taking away our remedies. Because China is going to continue to steal our stuff and they're going to continue with their predatory policies. So, that's a win for China. And I'm really afraid that that's going to occur.

Absolutely. Look, we've had injurious China policies for three decades. We've had injurious trade policies for three decades. We Americans can't think that we can get out of this without costs. And if we're not willing to pay this cost, we are going to be a very diminished country. And so if you don't want a future, sure, yeah, let's continue to buy cheap stuff from China.

If we want more wars around the world, yeah, let's continue to buy this cheap stuff. But we're Americans and we've got to make sacrifices. And this is a tough message for the American public. I know it's not one that any politician is willing to say, but let's face truth. So many times in the past, we have failed to face reality and we have paid for it.
