On Wednesday President Trump released a new policy video {Direct Rumble link} highlighting “China’s intrusive actions to own America’s infrastructure and vital industries.”
Within the policy, the Trump campaign pledges to enact aggressive regulations to prevent China from influencing American sovereignty. According to the proposal, “the United States will also pressure the Chinese to sell off any current holdings that threaten the country’s national and economic security.” WATCH:
Trump vows to stop China from owning America .
President Trump was the largest voice amid U.S. politicians to call out the economic threat represented by China back in 2015, an extension of criticism and warnings he carried for more than a decade before entering the world of politics. Transcript Below:
[Transcript] – “China is buying up our country. While corrupt Democrats and RINO-type politicians in Washington have been spending trillions of dollars on the Green New Deal nonsense, foolish foreign wars, and providing lavish benefits to illegal aliens from all over the planet, China has been spending trillions of dollars to take over the crown jewels of the United States economy. And they are doing that.
China is buying up our technology. They’re buying up food supplies. They’re buying up our farmland. They’re buying up our minerals and natural resources. They’re buying up our ports and shipping terminals. And with the help of corrupt influence peddlers like the Biden Crime Family, China is even trying to buy up the pillars of the U.S. energy industry. Because frankly, Biden and the group don’t care about real energy. They only care about nonsense energy, energy that doesn’t work, and it never will.
While some are focused on China’s purchases near power plants and military bases, the fact is we should be very concerned about all Chinese Communist activity in the United States. As I’ve long said, economic security is national security. China does not allow American companies to take over their critical infrastructure. And America should not allow China to take over our critical infrastructure. I didn’t allow it when I was president, and I won’t allow it when we become president again.
To protect our country, we need to enact aggressive new restrictions on Chinese ownership of any vital infrastructure in the United States, including energy, technology, telecommunications, farmland, natural resources, medical supplies, and other strategic national assets. We should stop all future Chinese purchases in these essential industries, and we should begin the process of forcing the Chinese to sell any current holdings that put our national security at risk.
If we don’t do this, the United States will be owned by China which would make them very happy. When I’m president, I will ensure that America’s future remains firmly in American hands just as I did when I was president before. It’ll happen again, and our country will be stronger than ever. Thank you.” (link)

This will have no impact on the American Politicians that the Communist Chinese already own, like Joe Biden and family, or the American Deep Swamp Bureaucrats and Democrats already owned.
Every time DeSantis says something...Here comes Trump. I’m not sure what is going on. I’m still p***** that Levi went to Chna and that Smithfield was sold to the Chinese. But the bottom line is “technology”. Keep the door shut to China and any other foreign nations. Keep America American.
Half the US electorate is so brainwashed that they cannot see the danger they're in or understand what's happening and cannot hear the truth and the warnings that Donald Trump has wisely, courageously, and benevolently revealed to them.
The only solution is to take back the media and the schools and restore the family.
They do not have the intelligence to get out of the rain. They deny the truth. And until our indoctrination system is changed, it will get worse every year. We have about two more election cycles of putting Democrats in elected Office and it is all over. When I was young, we knew the difference between a boy and girl. Boys married girls and girls married boys.
Heard a short clip from Warren Buffett. He said if he could buy 1% of the US farmland for $25million he would, if he could buy 1% of the apts in the US for $25million he would do it, if he was offered 1% of all the crypto currency in the world he would not pay $250 for it.
I think his point was if nothing is being produced he does not want it, at any price.
Of course, that's true. But the obvious problem is: HOW.
Can decadence be reversed once it has infected a civilization, or is it a fatal disease that can only result in the death and destruction of the civilization?
If the USA--if Western Civilization--can be restored to health and ascendancy, by all means they must be.
But how, when half the population is so afflicted that they cannot see reality and have only scorn for truth and those who speak it?
We are witnessing a mass psychosis, to which half the electorate, most of the news media, and much of the intelligentsia have succumbed.
It is a horrifying plague that threatens to destroy all of us, deadlier than the Black Plague or any plague in history.
One of the most devastating effects is that those infected have lost all sanity and reason and have only contempt for truth and responsible behavior.
How to help them overcome their insanity--or failing that, how to prevent them from destroying everyone else, along with themselves--is the question.
Yes, we can identify the problem, but what is the solution?
