Is Trump Serious About Destroying the CCP? Beijing's Air Defense System Can No Longer Protect Xi Jinping!
The video starts with the European heatwave and Taiwan's climate, discussing Taiwan's sovereignty, the anti-communist consensus between Taiwan independence supporters and Republic of China faction supporters, as well as the strategic planning of Trump's second administration toward Venezuela, Syria, Iran, Russia, and China. The program also analyzes communist infiltration within the United States, the Democratic Party, and democratic socialists, and mentions a small aircraft crashing into a building in Beijing and air defense system issues, suggesting that the Chinese Communist Party regime is facing pressure from Chinese society.

This is the show's host Stan. Welcome everyone to our weekly weekend livestream. This time, because it is really hot, I have to say, Europe is experiencing a once-in-a-century heatwave. Few places have air conditioning, plus our cat needed surgery. The cat is practicing a lot over here because it originally had breast cancer, which required two surgeries, so we took our cat to the Polish seaside, driving north.
It's very interesting. As you drive all the way, you find that home is 36 degrees, and after driving 50 kilometers it drops to 34 degrees, drive another 50 kilometers and it becomes 33 degrees, 32 degrees, driving all the way to the seaside, it directly drops from 36 degrees to 25 degrees, a huge difference. Then we rented a cheap guesthouse, staying here for a few days, until tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, our cat has to get its stitches removed, so we have to go home to get them removed. The day after tomorrow it will also have cooled down nicely, and it's in a great mood, running around, lying on the bed for a bit, running around again, and later it got very familiar. Then my roommate went to the balcony and saw someone.
Super cute wife, do you have anything to add? You keep looking at me, I'm talking about cat stuff. I'm talking into a microphone again, right? Do you want to hold it? Sure. It's almost time to remove the stitches, it should be fine. Let's show everyone our little gentle one. Walk around this side because I have a light. Yes, thank you.
Everyone please take a look, let's report on the progress. This is our cat Qiuqiu, it's wearing clothes now because the stitches haven't been removed yet. We need to be a bit gentle now because it still hurts. When it had surgery, it was very nervous and also very fierce. At that time, the doctor said that when they were operating, it tried to murder us. It tried to murder us. We respect its personality, so Qiuqiu is fierce, but everyone is scared of it, loves it, and respects it, so it's very safe. Tomorrow the stitches come out, and next time will be chemotherapy. The doctor said chemotherapy should be 6 times, once every 3 weeks.
During the heatwave, we brought it to a cooler place. On one hand, I couldn't stand the heat myself, home was very hot, so we came here. It's not really a vacation, because I still work every day, write every day, and we're staying by the seaside. It wants to go to the chair next to us because it can't jump that far on its own. It went to a chair next to us, because it can't stay in front of the camera for too long, afraid of light, I have to turn on the light, and it's very afraid of light.
I think, for a 13-year-old cat, it is being taken care of very well. Its bathroom habits and everything are no problem, and it's enjoying it quite a bit. As everyone can see, it is very healthy. Cancer is hard to prevent, and we discovered it quite early, went straight to excise it, and then excised it once more. After the excision, it felt OK, because the margin of the excision surgery was clean, meaning clear margin, its cancer was excised very cleanly, so it probably won't spread.
Europe is really outrageous this year. I saw a very funny meme online saying that illegal immigrants in Europe kill, rob, and violate women, while they just lie by the swimming pool drinking cocktails. Has anyone watched *Better Call Saul*? It's a Netflix show related to *Breaking Bad*, about a lawyer. That meme was showing that if a European buys popularity, it's the scene of going to prison.
I think air conditioning is still a must-buy, don't save money on this. Honestly, every time those environmental issues are discussed, I feel Europeans are the ones who should care the least. Europeans should take good care of themselves. You talk about climate change; the climate has always been changing. Whether human influence on climate change is large or small is still being researched, investigated, and discussed in the academic community. Even if we assume humans really affect climate change, it depends on what causes it: Do you drive a car? Do you ride a scooter? Do you turn on the AC at home? Or are factories running 24 hours a day, constantly emitting carbon into our atmosphere?
I think the impact of factories is much greater than that of ordinary households, by far. The second issue is what environmental regulations exist. Factories simply don't follow them at all, especially Chinese factories. Therefore, countries like Southeast Asia, China, and India are the ones harming the Earth. Europe has already killed and destroyed its own industrialization, so what are you doing? I think going back to re-industrialization now, what's wrong with that? Just learn from the United States: Drill, Baby, Drill. I think Europe right now just needs Drill, Baby, Drill. Europe has oil, Scotland has oil, Norway has oil, and they need to Drill, Baby, Drill. That is the best approach.
At this time, I think Taiwanese people should pay attention now, because I know some Taiwanese people in Europe who say Taiwan is very hot and Europe is just as hot. But hospitals don't have AC, and many places don't have AC installed. I think the lack of AC in many things is caused by the environmental cult; it actually has no scientific basis and is purely the result of propaganda. What about Greta Thunberg? Isn't this How Terrible, How Terrible? Taiwan is a country, Taiwan is a country, a pretty country, a very beautiful country.
It snowed heavily just in January; there is no global warming problem at all. The climate has always been changing. Sometimes today's climate problems also happened a hundred or two hundred years ago, with heatwaves exceeding 40 degrees. Since humanity has had climate records, we have always encountered abnormally high temperatures. But people in the past didn't have urbanization, didn't have such large cities.
Who is doing chemotherapy? Our cat, this darling is doing chemotherapy. This darling got breast cancer. Yes, very cute. All other biopsies are normal, everything else is OK. It has breast cancer, there is a tumor, but both sides of its breasts need to be removed, the second is preventive, and now it needs chemotherapy. Last year we also asked the doctor for...
We get checked every year. Last year there were no problems, and this year when we brought it in, my wife felt it. I happened to be in the United States at the time, and she called me and said, honey, our cat seems to have something on its chest. Then I came back from the U.S. Actually, when I was in the U.S., I called the hospital, originally considering whether to directly have surgery done for it. As soon as I came back, I took it straight in, and the doctor said it was cancer. Surgery in a few days, then another surgery, and now it needs chemotherapy. That's how it is, and honestly, there's nothing else to be done.
Previously it was in Poland, the hospital was in Poland, it's a pet hospital I'm very familiar with, we always take it there. The doctors are also very professional, they are all my friends. I am very confident in Polish medicine, or veterinary medicine, and feel very reassured. Our cat also had major surgeries done in Poland, and they were all OK, and the doctors were very gentle.
Speaking of climate, people in the past didn't have urbanization, and didn't have such large cities. Humanity wouldn't encounter such great dangers, nor would they die so easily, because cities lacked greening. City temperatures are naturally a few degrees different from the outdoors, and cities in the past didn't have high-rise buildings, nor the kind of urban planning we have now. Coupled with Europe, the subways in Berlin and Paris have no AC; people actually die from that.
I want everyone to understand one thing: not every European country is as developed as Poland. Poland basically has widespread AC everywhere, and the subways also have AC; the Warsaw subway has AC. I think in terms of various facilities that make things more convenient, Poland is much better than Germany, and somewhat better than France. Roads and other facilities, I think, are also much better than in other European countries.
So every time I see someone asking what the problem with illegal immigrants in Europe is, I think Poland is fine, Poland has no problems. Some people say you were lied to by Taiwanese people, Taiwan is not a country. I think you are an idiot; if you don't understand, don't talk. I am going to hide you from the channel.
Because I studied international law, my doctoral dissertation is also related to international human rights law. Let me tell you, if you look at the Montevideo Convention and various international conventions, Taiwan is a country. What conditions does a country require? A defined territory, a population, the capacity to enter into relations with other states, and a government—these four are the most critical. I am telling you this directly from the top of my head.
Taiwan is a country. Taiwan has all of these, and Taiwan even has its own military. Which province or district has its own military? There is no such thing. Therefore, the issue of Taiwan is an issue of state normalization, and Japan also has an issue of state normalization. Many countries have issues of state normalization because these are problems left over from World War II that were not fully resolved in the international community.
If you view Taiwan through the lens of post-colonial justice, which is what many leftist friends will tell you, they talk about Africa, India, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and South America every time, but they avoid talking about Taiwan. I think the country most deserving of post-colonial justice is Taiwan. Taiwan used to be a colony, and after decolonization, Japan renounced its sovereignty over Taiwan; this sovereignty belongs to the people of Taiwan.
Later on, whose burden is this to bear? The San Francisco Peace Treaty saw Japan renounce it, along with the Treaty of Peace between Japan and the Republic of China (the Treaty of Taipei). Do not say as if the Republic of China did not know about this; the Treaty of Taipei was signed between the Republic of China and Japan, and it did not transfer Taiwan's sovereignty to the Republic of China either. It was permitted by the United States for the Kuomintang to take over and administer it on a trusteeship basis—this was a delegated administration right.
As time goes on, the interesting aspect of Taiwan's current predicament is that, because Taiwan has democratized, people in Taiwan now elect their own president and their own legislators. But the name of this regime does not match Taiwan's current reality; the name of this regime itself is a product of post-World War II history.
Therefore, I personally support the people of Taiwan amending the constitution to prove this, so that there won't be any "One China" problem, right? You just change the constitution. Peng Li-wen wrote that Article 2 of the Treaty of Taipei states that the Republic of China recognizes that Japan has renounced all right, title, and claim to Taiwan and the Penghu Islands in accordance with the Treaty of Peace with Japan (the San Francisco Peace Treaty), and the public will advocates for this, which is the Treaty of Taipei.
The example you mentioned refers to the Treaty of Taipei. It essentially came about because the Republic of China was not invited to attend the San Francisco Peace Treaty and the San Francisco Conference, and did not come to the meeting. Later, to make up for this, a Treaty of Taipei was signed, and the content was the same.
I am Taiwanese. Xi Jinping constantly provokes Taiwan by crossing the median line; if they want to fight, then come and fight. I am Taiwanese, and I am not afraid. Do you think mainlanders won't die? Let me tell you, if the Chinese Communist Party really attacks, the Taiwan Strait will become the largest coffin for the Chinese people. Taiwan should thank God, thank the Almighty, and thank Taiwan's geographical location, because it is a natural fortress. If you want to understand some...
If you want to understand content related to the military, you can check out Uncle Tofler; he explains why Taiwan is extremely difficult to invade. However, if Stan says this, he will be severely scolded by the ROC partisans. I also often scold those ROC partisans. My view on the ROC partisans is: currently, because they represent a certain proportion of Taiwan's population, they also have their own right to speak and their own propositions. I think both the Taiwan-centric camp and the ROC camp must have a consensus, and that is the anti-communist consensus. Because Taiwan currently has a greatest enemy, and that is the Chinese Communist Party; we must oppose it and defeat it. To borrow a saying from Deng Xiaoping, we must defeat it. Before the problem of the Chinese Communist Party is resolved, we still need to find a way to properly unite, and we can figure out what Taiwan's path will be in the future.
To be completely honest, the Republic of China regime has no sovereignty over Taiwan, and the People's Republic of China—in fact, no Chinese regime whatsoever—has sovereignty over Taiwan. However, the ROC partisans and the Republic of China have one path, which is the Taiwanization path. The Taiwanization of the Republic of China means the Republic of China acknowledges that without Taiwan, there is no Republic of China. Supporters of the Republic of China also feel that the current Republic of China consists of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen, and Matsu. In this way, the Republic of China has a space for survival in Taiwan.
If they continue to advocate for Greater China, and continue to advocate for those absurdities of the Begonia leaf map and think about getting along with the communist bandits, it is because they have been hijacked by nationalism, hijacked by Chinese nationalism. Nationalism is a terrifying thing. When we talk about the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, nationalism speaks of their nations, many of which come from Europe, mostly countries like England, Scotland, and Ireland. Irish-Americans today are first and foremost Americans, right?
Such adults are still Canadians; French-Canadians might say they are Québécois, but they wouldn't say they are French, right? If they are from Quebec, and the same goes for Australians and New Zealanders. First of all, you must have an identity with your own country, and ethnicity is not that important in this regard.
What actually makes you Taiwanese is not your ethnicity, but other identities, such as your respect for ethnic freedom and your appreciation for local Taiwanese culture. These are things that authoritarian countries love to stir up nationalism over, and the Chinese Communist Party loves to do just that. In English, there is ethnonationalism—which is nationalism based on race—and then there is civic nationalism, which is civic national identity. Both are called nationalism, which can be translated into stateism or patriotism. Patriotism is also patriotism. I feel that here, the Chinese translation in social sciences once again fails to align with the English.
Speaking of civic nationalism, this is Taiwan's path: Taiwanese citizens, being citizens of Taiwan, love their own country. Moreover, regardless of your background—whether you are Hakka, Minnan, indigenous, a new immigrant, or a new immigrant from Southeast Asia—it does not matter. First and foremost, you are Taiwanese, and that is what counts.
Did Mr. Peng Liwen watch Teacher Chen Shifeng talk about the sovereignty of Taiwan? No, I haven't, I haven't.
In reality, Trump has made a misstep, and the probability of China taking Taiwan now is getting higher and higher. What is this claim based on? What is this claim based on? Currently, you see that Trump—actually not just Trump, the overall policy of the United States is not just Trump alone; the team behind him is extremely professional. I think you may dislike Trump, but you cannot disrespect his team. He is very good at picking people, very good at choosing the right people to do the right thing. Just as I said last time, Hegseth would make the best Secretary of War, and our Department of Defense has indeed delivered; Hegseth truly is a super formidable Secretary of Defense.
In Trump's second term, Maduro of Venezuela was arrested. The drugs shipped from Venezuela to the US have also decreased significantly, and this loophole has been patched. Even though the current Venezuelan government still has problems, it no longer poses a risk to the United States. Assad has fallen and fled to Russia. Syria has a new government, and does Syria pose a danger to the United States now? No.
Iran, everyone says, might still fight for a while. I think the key point is that Khamenei was killed; there is no Khamenei anymore. This regime still manages to hold on to power, but exporting its oil to China has become extremely difficult. Overland transport is impossible; it has to go through Pakistan, and the railway is very dangerous, very dangerous.
So you see, in Trump's second term—Assad, Maduro, Khamenei—the next might be Castro, Castro of Cuba, and Putin is also in jeopardy, hard to say. Will this war definitely be lost? This is obvious; Russia will lose. Recently, Ukraine also very dominantly said: “Belarus, you let Russian drones fly through your airspace, then you also pose a danger to us,” directly warning Lukashenko. And Lukashenko also knows that if a war breaks out with Ukraine, Belarus might become part of Ukraine.
So Putin is also almost finished. He is still holding on, but how long he can last is uncertain. At a time like this, Xi Jinping attacks Taiwan, and you say the probability is getting higher and higher? I think we need to put a big question mark on that, because Trump's policy has always been that among the world's greatest risks, I will tackle them one by one, and after solving them, what do I want to do? I want to deal with the Chinese Communist Party. That is why people like Hegseth and Colby are all saying that the current strategic focus of the United States is in the Indo-Pacific.
Taiwanese people say Trump is interfering? How could that be? First in South America, then in the Middle East, then here, then there, and finally all the focus is placed on the Indo-Pacific. The current focus is all placed on the Indo-Pacific. Then if you don't solve the Middle East problem, will Israel be at risk? Is there danger? Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East and the greatest ally of the United States.
The United States is also helpless against countries that make nuclear bombs, isn't it? For example, North Korea. This is not a question of whether there is a way, but from a strategic perspective, whether there is a need to deal with the risk of North Korea. I think the risk is not that big yet. From the US strategic perspective, Kim Jong-un and current US officials have some tacit understanding. The main thing is that the US can guarantee the security of the South China Sea.
Peng Liwen, right, right, right, not Zheng Liwen. Looking up the climbing, wife. Where did we just talk about? Right, nuclear weapons. Then how is there no way? What about Iran?
Iran also has nuclear weapons. Strictly speaking, Iran does not have the capability to transport nuclear weapons, but the nuclear bomb itself most likely exists, most likely exists. Russia's problem is relatively bigger, because its nuclear weapon reserves are the largest in the world, and the risk is also the highest.
However, I think by comparison, Russia's internal turmoil is currently a serious problem, and its elites also want to return to a pro-US, pro-European path. For a long time, Russia's strategy has not been suitable for standing together with the Chinese Communist state. After all, I know many Europeans also look down on Russians, and some say Russians are not Europeans. But from a global perspective, their culture is closer to European culture, closer to Europe, and closer to the United States; they are also Christians. Although Christianity was eradicated by the KGB, they are still Christians.
Over time, as China becomes more and more arrogant, Russia will also feel significant risks. Currently, Russia's problem is that once Putin's issue is resolved, that country will basically return to the fold.
Jack Mu, I hope Trump wins, but is the whole of the US currently at a disadvantage? China and Russia are now joining forces, and China's attack on Taiwan is actually aimed at breaking the first island chain. A few days ago, Southeast Asia moving closer to Russia was very obvious. Let me tell you, you shouldn't overestimate Russia's capability. Russia is basically a resource repository; it has oil, natural gas, water, natural resources, and rare earths. But it is a sparsely populated country. As the largest country in the world by area, its population is only over 100 million, roughly similar to Japan. Furthermore, the war has already killed over 1 million people, all of them men who could work. You can imagine, this is a war that has killed nearly 1% of the population. Moreover, the average person in Russia is a 45-year-old woman; she is not some so-called "combat nation" as some Taiwanese people say, she is a divorced single mother nation.
They are not a combat nation, they are five, six, seven, eight—right, single mothers five, six, seven, eight, right, they are just a five, six, seven, eight nation. Because it sounds very harsh, but the average Russian is a divorced single mother in her 40s; this is the Russian average. And I think the right wing also has too many misunderstandings about them, talking about them being conservative, but they have nothing to do with conservative values either. They don't go to church anyway; they are in a very principle-less social condition.
The Chinese Communist Party is joining forces with Russia, and the Chinese Communist Party is joining forces with Putin. Russians actually look down on Chinese people, and even hate Chinese people, because that historical connection goes back a long way. So Xi Jinping wants to maintain this, which is why Xi Jinping must make sure Putin stays in power. Because as long as Putin is in power, Russia will develop relations with China. If any next person replaces him, Russia will definitely return to the fold with Europe. It will definitely return to how it was in the 1990s and during Putin's first term in the 2000s, which is Russia selling oil and natural gas to Europe, and then their own oligarch elites living the high life. They really want to return to that kind of life, and they also feel that attacking Ukraine was a huge mistake.
And attacking Ukraine—I think some people say it was Russian intelligence, that Putin received wrong intelligence, which is partly true. But I think a lot of this wrong intelligence also came from China. Because Russia falling out with Europe and then attacking Ukraine—the only beneficiary is China. Even when they invaded Crimea in 2014, who benefited? Was it China? Because previously they could completely rely on Europe and the US, and their economic development was very good. First, China instigated Putin's nationalism. That is the problem with a dictatorship: its core political power is concentrated in the hands of one person, so once you control that person, it's equivalent to controlling the country. So China got a grip on Putin, the people around him, and those KGB oligarch elites. Because you have to think, since 2014, what has Russia done to make its country stronger? Nothing. It has just become weaker and weaker.
And everyone thought Ukraine would be occupied within 3 days, right? None of that happened! Because they didn't understand Russia, and didn't understand the reality of the situation. Right, and now look, Kyiv was supposed to be occupied in 3 days, and now it's turned into Ukraine potentially even taking back Belarus—they could actually take it. Trump originally, I think, also received wrong information, because Russia kept trying to project that it was currently on the offensive. But actually, Trump has been in office for two years now—well, his second term is almost two years in. He recently also started saying that Ukraine can take it all.
Ukraine can take all. You don't have cards. You don't have cards. Then this guy should say, "I don't play cards. I play chess or whatever." But from "You don't have cards" it turned into I think Ukraine can have the whole thing. You know? From you having no cards to I think he can take the whole thing. From you having no cards to St. Petersburg emitting black smoke, and Crimeans now unable to go to Crimea. Russia is restricting oil—an oil-producing country, and now if you want to refuel there, they will sell you at most 15 liters of oil. And what is 15 liters? A scooter might be able to refuel, but what about a car? How far can you drive on 15 liters? You can't drive very far. And they also all depend on driving.
So, saying that Putin and Xi Jinping are joining forces sounds very impressive. It's just two losers, two pieces of trash teaming up. And Putin, I think, looking at those Russian opposition figures recently, I tell you, today August is ending. I think the war will end this year, and Russia will either be given a face-saving way out, or it will fully accept that it is defeated, that it has lost, that it has lost this war. This is obvious. When Moscow was bombed, Russian soldiers started making videos saying: "We are going to revolt. Putin, if you don't step down, if you continue to slaughter us, we are going to revolt." So how much longer can this war be sustained? Right, it cannot be sustained much longer.
Then some people say, Xi, is China close to collapse? I don't think it's happening that fast. I really like what a netizen said, that the US Republican Party supporting the Kuomintang (KMT) in China sounds really fake. Fake! The Republican Party cannot possibly support anyone getting too close to the CCP. Don't even think about it. Mike Johnson, who is the current Speaker of the House, met with Han Kuo-yu. Han Kuo-yu was leading a cross-party delegation, a delegation visiting the US. This is parliament-to-parliament, the party is not the main point. And the current legislative speaker in Taiwan is from the KMT, and furthermore, the US is willing to engage with any Taiwan leadership that has a popular mandate. Does Han Kuo-yu have votes behind him? Why did nobody care when Cheng Li-wen came? Because he had nothing behind him. Han Kuo-yu has votes behind him, and Han Kuo-yu is a solid, genuine legislative speaker.
Right? So the US is not supporting the Communists. The US Republican Party is not supporting the KMT, nor is it supporting the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP). The US Republican Party supports a strong Taiwan, a Taiwan capable of protecting itself. Because no US political party will ever say, "We support one specific party among you." That's impossible. The US acts from the US perspective, and Taiwan's politics are not American politics. So you Taiwanese people should vote properly. Today, if it were someone from the DPP, they would also receive the highest-level reception, because they are representatives of the public will. Therefore, the US does not support the KMT, nor does it support the DPP; the US supports Taiwan. As for who to vote for in Taiwan, that requires everyone to cast their ballots properly.
Some people talk about Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia has been buying oil and natural gas from Russia, but not for much longer. Because the Middle East crisis caused the US to temporarily lift sanctions against Russia, right? Now they have been restored, and secondary sanctions have also been restored, so Southeast Asia will stop buying now. Has the Middle East problem been solved? So don't expect Southeast Asia to keep buying from Russia. Southeast Asia bought from Russia because the US lifted the sanctions; when the US puts the sanctions back on, they won't be able to buy anymore.
Now let's talk about Trump wanting to destroy the Communists. Because recently in a speech he said something I strongly agree with, which is that America cannot become a communist country. Of course, some people are self-deluded, thinking: "Right, he is going to take on the CCP head-on." And I don't think that's the main point. Of course, China is America's enemy; this is something all Americans and constitutional teams know, everyone knows, Everybody knows.
However, mainly when Trump talks about this, he is talking to the domestic audience. Because the communists don't only exist abroad; there are also communists inside the US, and there are communists and far-left groups infiltrating the US. They want to divide America first, they want America to be divided through identity politics, through various ways that fail to find common ground, but instead find points that make you divide, to fracture society. Then they mobilize the most filthy, rotten aspects of human nature to tear society apart, to make you hate your own country, hate your own history, hate your background, and make you self-loathing. And then comes the flood of drugs, sexual deviance, and all sorts of things brought out into the open. And then, of course, this involves taking resources from relatively successful people, like wealthy tyrants redistributing the land. So it's Cultural Marxism, that's what this is. Thank you very much, Domine.
Trump genuinely wants to destroy the communists. The problem of the Democratic Party becoming communist is extremely serious. Look at the people nominated by Mandani, they actually all got elected! Right, right, right, you are totally right. What I want to talk about is this communistification, because communist infiltration starts from—you can all go watch the video titled "Your Best Man". I’ve filmed it before, I've analyzed this matter. The communists, they first infiltrate academia, then the cultural sphere, and then the political sphere; it starts from academia. Why did everyone suddenly start seeing mainstream academia turn into something like the Frankfurt School and Critical Race Theory? Critical theory itself shouldn't even be a mainstream in academia. It used to be a very marginal thing, invented by extreme-left German scholars, and it's merely a theory.
It is not a hundred percent correct thing. In academia, things like critique and gender theory can always be discussed. Academia should inherently have absolute freedom, but when you take a theory from within academia and turn it into the main direction of your political sphere, it ends up turning into underage individuals being forced to undergo sex-change surgeries. That's what it turns into, right? Then borders no longer matter, illegal immigrants walk right in, drugs run rampant, and all social morality is destroyed, torn apart. This is what the communists want, isn't it? Communists only know how to dismantle, fracture, and destroy, but they never build anything new, do they?
So if you look at it, today's Democratic Party in the United States—not the entire Democratic Party, as there are normal Democrats, people who support Taiwan, and people who like capitalism. But within the Democratic Party, there is also Zora M. Denny, and there is a faction called, you can look it up, called the DSA, Democratic Socialists of America. Trump even said that those people are not Social Democrats, they are communists. They didn't even call themselves Social Democrats; they said they are Democratic Socialists. What is the difference between Social Democrat and Democratic Socialist? Has anyone looked into the difference between democratic socialism and social democracy? Social democracy is democracy, whereas democratic socialism means they are socialists first, and democracy is just something added on top of the roof, and whatever is added on top of the roof will sooner or later be torn down. They openly state that they are democratic socialists; they are socialists. And the DSA holds, they do hold, the DSA holds a lot of influence within the Democratic Party today, which is why many people have that.
Are there any Little Pinks? Wife? What did he say? He said you are spreading rumors. What am I spreading rumors about? What did I spread rumors about? Which sentence of mine is a rumor? Who is spreading rumors? Anyone with a communist background is spreading rumors. The nature of the Chinese Communist Party is lies; its nature is to lie. They only know how to cheat, rob, and steal, dividing up land from the rich.
So, Mr. Xi Van Fleet said something that I quite like, which is that the direction of today's Democratic Party is rather like the Cultural Revolution. I think they make a lot of sense—using your identity to attack you, using your identity to attack you, and talking about diversity and inclusion, but the diversity and inclusion they hate is the diversity and inclusion right here. Their diversity and inclusion targets what is inside your pants.
Moreover, their identities are not true identities, but labeled identities, which is just argumentative. Do you want to add anything? It is a labeled identity. I think this point is very well made. Trump also said that right now in the United States, especially within the Democratic Party, there are genuinely communist elements. Look at Hasan Piker, who was recently accused of animal abuse, who has zero sense of patriotism toward the United States, likes China, and even said he wanted to kill all the Jews—Hasan Piker. Hasan Piker is Turkish, and Cenk Uygur's nephew, right? Yes, nephew. He is literally the product of birth tourism; his parents are wealthy Turks who specifically came to the US to have a child, and that is how he became an American citizen. No wonder he has zero sense of patriotism toward the U.S.!
So, let's continue talking about communism. Trump said that the United States can never become a communist country. Spiritually, I strongly agree with President Trump's statement: the United States should not become a communist country, because communism means the elimination of private property, expropriation, and simply allowing a small group of vested interests to seize all power. Communism is the most terrifying thing in the world; there is nothing more terrifying than communism. Any Pole will tell you, I don't want anyone to live in a communist country, nor do I want anyone to live in a communist country. But whether President Trump's words can be fulfilled is another question. Americans certainly understand the risks from the Chinese Communist Party, but the Democrats still manipulate elections, and within the Democratic Party, there are more and more communist supporters, more and more critical theorists, and more and more people for whom identity politics overrides everything, overriding the American spirit. The more people like this there are, the more troubled that country will become.
I think the United States cannot become a communist country. Spiritually, I strongly agree with Trump. But what if the midterm elections don't go well this time? Therefore, if any American friends are watching, you must vote wisely this time and not let communist elements seize power. Because Trump also put it very well: he said he would make a great communist, because I'll give you everything for free—houses free, cars free, everything free, I'll give you everything for free, I'll give you everything completely free, but after 3 years your country will go bankrupt, and that is the direction it's heading. Mondaini was that kind of New York City mayor, a mayor who drove your country to bankruptcy. How can this be prevented? By voting properly.
Of course, there are some cities that I think are beyond saving. The biggest difference in America's future won't actually be between red states and blue states, but between cities—large cities—and everywhere else. Big cities will become very left-wing, increasingly so. Furthermore, because they are sanctuary cities, all illegal immigrants will stay right there, and they will also figure out ways to quickly get legal status. So the difference will be—you can look at the 2024 election map, it's very interesting. You can see that all of America is red, with just a few dots: Los Angeles, New York City, Houston in Texas, Atlanta in Georgia, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland in Oregon—not Portland in Maine, though Portland in Maine is too—they are all blue, deep blue. But the population in those cities is actually about the same as in all the other red areas.
So the difference won't be between red states and blue states, but between blue cities and red states. Because even in California, once you leave those gathering places of the ultra-leftists, everyone is quite conservative. Especially in Southern California, you see Barstow is very conservative. You look at San Diego County, the surrounding area is full of conservative military bases, it's all military personnel. How could military personnel possibly support the Democratic Party? That's quite unlikely! Therefore, the division in American society will become increasingly severe.
What should be done at this time? What kind of realization is there, how can America be prevented from becoming a communist country? That is to make America great again. People actually think Trump has his own unique way of doing things, but politically he is emulating Reagan. If you've observed American politics for a long time, what was the slogan of Reagan's second term? Let's make America great again. Reagan Bush, Let's make America great again. He had two, one was Let's make America great again, and then It can be done. "It can be done" was Obama, who also learned it from Reagan. Every politician is learning from Reagan, because Reagan's ability to persuade people was simply too strong; he truly is the most powerful president in history.
Obama said, "Yes, we can." Reagan said, "It can be done." "It can be done," this matter can be achieved, this matter can be accomplished. Education and the media must let Americans and people globally know—because America is a global leader nation, the most powerful country in the world, the bastion of democracy and freedom, the final bastion. We need to let everyone know why America is good, where America's preciousness and greatness lie. Because once Americans begin to self-doubt—this was seemingly spoken by Fumio Kishida—an America full of self-doubt is an America heading toward failure. Americans must have confidence, understand America, also have confidence in America, and then let more people know that America's path is the only correct path, not socialism, not communism, and respecting individual freedom.
Market economy, fair competition, how much each person can contribute to this society is how much they will contribute. Small-scale society is greater than the government, greater than large-scale society. That is to say, your family, your church, your city, your state, and only then the nation. Not that kind of nationalism and patriotism, but this grassroots-originated love for the country, rather than those grand declarations of "I must act like a superpower." Ah, this is an antidote. What kind of antidote is there for the poison of communism? This antidote is called America. This antidote is called America, because America has already defeated communism once, and a second or third time will be no problem. The first time was the collapse of the Soviet Union, right? Now maybe the Chinese Communist Party is also getting close, although not quite that fast yet, but it is fast. I dare not report numbers, because does everyone know Gordon Chang? I know him and respect him very much.
The book he wrote, The Coming Collapse of China, describes the direction, problems, trends, and background of what China is facing very correctly, but he didn't foresee that Americans would prop up the Chinese Communist Party themselves, that Americans would pour their own money into the Chinese Communist Party. If after June 4, 1989, America had truly sanctioned the Chinese Communist Party, completely sanctioned it, that regime would have collapsed. But Americans cultivated their own enemy, Americans cultivated their own enemy. Yes, his book is indeed very good; it's just that when you read it, you must think that as long as Americans don't do stupid things themselves, if they do it themselves, it will certainly succeed.
Next, let's talk about how Beijing couldn't even protect itself recently. What couldn't Beijing protect? A small airplane crashed directly into the tallest building in Beijing, the tallest building in Beijing, and it's very close to Zhongnanhai. The air defense system in the Chinese Communist Party's territory couldn't stop it at all, which is really hilarious. The funniest part is that when they were filming, passersby naturally took out their phones to record. While they were filming, the police ran over and said: "You're not allowed to film! You're not allowed to film! Delete the video for me, delete the video." Do you remember? It seemed like a cartoonist friend of Badiucao drew an illustration. China floods every year, and after the flooding, you would capture footage. In the past when China flooded, there were even pig carcasses floating in the water, drifting God knows where—such an absurd country. Every time there's a flood, if I recall correctly, Badiucao drew a pig, and then that pig said to the person filming it: "You're not allowed to post it on the overseas internet." Not allowed to post it on the overseas internet. He must have seen this picture. Yeah, I'd rather die myself, but I just won't let foreigners see that China isn't that great.
So, someone wrote that Americans themselves are also enemies. Obama is also a fool for letting China join the WTO. Not just Obama, Clinton too; this was something they pushed forward together, something they pushed forward jointly. The United States made a fatal mistake. And ever since then, we can say the Democratic Party also began to completely communize, which was during the time of Clinton and Obama. Yet the content of "not allowed to post on the overseas internet" still ended up on the overseas internet, and the media still reported on it. In the past, everyone said that the most powerful air defense system in the world was Beijing's; everyone should remember, Moscow's was too. So even when Ukraine struck Russia, Moscow could still live a very peaceful life. In reality, now Moscow and St. Petersburg have also been bombed, and Beijing's air defense system couldn't protect it either.
Does this mean the CCP will collapse? There are too many uncertainties about this; it might, or it might not. But what we can see is that Xi Jinping's regime will face increasing pressure, and this pressure will come from the Chinese people, from Chinese society, rather than from external pressure. Because a regime this foolish only exists in the CCP's territory: a regime that completely doesn't care about its own ordinary people, and only cares about how long it can hold on to power.
Well, we've also been chatting for an hour. I think we discussed quite a few important topics today—we talked about communism, capitalism, and all sorts of things. My wife seems very eager to speak. Do you want to say something to the fans? She's eating bread, eating bread. Alright, my wife is eating bread. Wife, we are going to go eat fish now, taking my wife to eat fish. Okay, then I'll take my wife to eat fish. Ah, yes, please everyone watch out for flooding; Taiwan has been having heavy rain recently, so still take good care of yourselves. Right, next week I'm going to the United States. Next week I'll be giving a speech in the United States, also talking about topics related to the CCP's cognitive warfare.
