The Epoch Times sponsored a forum to discuss the current state of U.S.–China relations including Dr. Dana Cheng, a founder of the newspaper, and Salem Radio Network talk show host 'Sebastian Gorka', a former adviser to President Donald Trump....The narrative on the China threat may now be back in the hands of the US.
Several panelists described China seeking to become the world hegemon, displacing the US. The result would give the world a far more authoritarian model of governance, with the other nations of the world becoming dependent on China.
Gorka said Trump has been ahead of the time in seeing the threat posed by China...“Look at speeches that Donald Trump gave” decades ago, Gorka said. “His message hasn’t changed.”
China’s pressure on nearly every industry in the United States has been unparalleled. And, the panelists say, it goes beyond the scope of just simple competition.
“In a very specific way, 'China has been buying up the means of production for food',said Doug Stephan of the nationally syndicated “DJV Show.”......“China is about to buy Bumblebee,” Stephan said. Not only does this include its tuna product, but also its chicken and crab products as well. Chicken producers are next, he says.
“The Chinese have started to have liaison discussions with Tyson and Purdue” to grow chickens for China....The entire supply chain of the United States has been targeted, according to John Fredericks of John Fredericks Radio. Among other tactics, Beijing subsidizes industries until they can put foreign competitors out of business, he said.

Continued.....“Trump is not a neo-conservative or an interventionist,” Gorka continued. He’s also “not a president to be trifled with, or tested.”
Chinese leader Xi Jinping may think he can “play” Donald Trump, but Gorka says, “we know what you’re afraid of, and Donald Trump knows how to leverage it.”
Every president for the last thirty years, has been selling us out.
Democrats. Republicans. Everyone.
Trump may be different.
We will see.
Recognizing and Identifying the problem as it is and relating it to the public is half the solution...Trump has been keenly aware of the problem with China for decades. If the Dems were in office it would just continue.
China’s Xi is certainly supporting whatever means is possible to prevent Trump’s reelection so is trying to stall these trade agreements.
I ask you: Name one president in our history who has done more to look out for the good of the United States.
Trump IS different. He HAS been trying to change the STUPIDITY that our country has been involved in with various idiotic treaties and agreements...that all the other Presidents just rubber stamp and kick down the road, if not getting us into really bad ones to begin with.
I knew he was going to be good when he moved the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. He said he would do it, and he did.
I really couldn’t name any except perhaps Reagan who opened the way to get the ball rolling at the very least....He too was a different style and kind of President.
There was an interview with Trump many years ago where he discussed what it was like doing business with foreign countries like those in the Middle East, and they ridiculed us and laughed at us because of the stupid agreements we made and adhered to, which allowed us to be financially undressed by them.
When Trump spoke about it, you could tell just by looking at him and listening to the tone of his voice that it really, REALLY burned him.
And here he is in 2019 in a position to do something about it. And he is.
Yes.....and for me it was seriously viewing Trumps past videos and interviews that cnvinced me to support him. His consistancy was truly an eye opener.
But regarding China’s impact n this country now....I’m so tired of seeing Asians everywhere on TV....and all these minority people being inserted into all media as a visual of the diversity Hollywood wants to promote. They no longer have to prove themselves in their art, the hiring is based on loading the films and such with a cross section of nationalities or races or both.

I agree on Reagan. I would add Washington. After Washington, the corruption too off.

“I’m so tired of seeing Asians everywhere on TV”
What are you referring to?
That’s a very good observation and great point. He is sincere.
The whole indecent and unjust travesty the Rats continue to perpetrate against him and the country will not go unanswered. God is on our side. The Dems are now insidiously evil.
BFL.
No Gina Shakespeare?
True.
I thought that was clear in the post.
well that abbr. could signify a lot of things....what did you have in mind?
