But I think that the difference, and I think you even sort of see it reflected in the MAGA ethos right now, the Chinese Communist Party understands the inflection point of history and the time we're at.

I don't think our leaders have ever really understood that.

The Chinese Communist Party, it's not just the typical critique of that they think in decades, we think in four-year terms or whatever.

They view the arc of history.

They understand.

that rare earths, the sort of unrestricted warfare approach empirically is how they will overtake the United States.

They learned from us what happened in the graveyard of empires, Afghanistan, right?

They don't want to have to fire a shot.

They are, and even as the EMP stuff, right, the undersea cable cutters, what happens when INDOPACOM is removed, doesn't have access to the mainland, right?

There's Guam.

Think about everything that they're doing.

over there, right?

It's all together.

And I think the MAGA connection point I was trying to make, in the same way that our audience is sitting here frustrated that maybe they're not taking on the deep state as forcibly as they should be, there's also just a lack of understanding that the Chinese Communist Party is our most existential threat that they should be engaged with as such.

And, you know, in Trump 1, we saw a lot of movement against these sort of united front, almost like the human stuff, right?

Like the actual targeting people with people like Feng Feng.

A lot of these groups are actually sanctioned.

They were said, no more.

If you go there, you're cut off.

And these groups have been kind of welcomed with open arms.
