Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Great America Show.
00:00:06.380
Seems that each day that goes by, the U.S. faces a threat from a different angle of the
00:00:10.840
The threat of nuclear war from Russia or Iran, the threat of illegal immigrants coming across
00:00:15.140
the southern border, or perhaps the threat of the deadly fentanyl that comes across each
00:00:19.840
But there's one threat that stayed constant for a very long time, and that is China.
00:00:25.400
They are the leading producer of it and send it into this country freely each day, and
00:00:31.800
Fentanyl is responsible for taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans each
00:00:36.140
They also sent us the China virus, which claimed the lives of over 1 million Americans and
00:00:42.040
And since the Biden administration has taken over, there has been little to nothing done
00:00:45.900
to hold China accountable for anything they've done to us.
00:00:48.860
To take up all the current and future threats we face, I want to bring in our guest today.
00:00:52.720
He's the author of the all-new book called Plan Red, China's Project to Destroy America.
00:00:56.880
It comes out on October 1st, and it's available for pre-order now.
00:01:03.660
I want to start with first, China announcing this week they're going to start joint naval
00:01:12.520
This shows once again, John, that China and Russia are coordinating their militaries.
00:01:17.780
This particular naval exercise will be near Japan, and that indicates this is a threat
00:01:24.640
to not only the Japanese homeland, but to South Korea as well.
00:01:29.440
You know, if there's going to be a war, you know, you could be Taiwan, could be the Philippines,
00:01:34.780
but clearly I think the Chinese will pressure both South Korea and Japan.
00:01:42.600
And by the way, we got wars in Ukraine, the Middle East, and in North Africa with those
00:01:50.700
That means this is probably World War III if something happens in East Asia.
00:01:57.520
Xi Jinping was over in Africa this week for the 2020 forum on the China-Africa cooperation,
00:02:03.320
where he's trying to get started back up the Belt and Road Initiative, offering up loans
00:02:09.820
I mean, is this part of his plan to dominate all global aspects of the world?
00:02:16.280
I mean, you see him down in Honduras, down in Nicaragua, building, you know, power plants
00:02:22.140
and all sorts of things, coming up just short of Mexico, which I'm sure he'll make his way
00:02:32.780
And they've been very clear about it, because he's been pushing the notion that China is the
00:02:38.640
And since 2017, Chinese officials have been talking about the moon and Mars as sovereign
00:02:45.920
Now, this meeting with the African leaders is important for Xi Jinping, because not only
00:02:52.520
is this a question of trying to govern the entire planet and to colonize Africa, but it's
00:02:59.220
also Xi Jinping desperately needs the African economies.
00:03:06.320
He has turned his back on the only sustainable plan for China, which is to increase consumption,
00:03:17.400
We're seeing China, we're seeing the United States, EU start to restrict their markets.
00:03:22.880
Even some countries in the global south are starting to restrict their markets to Chinese
00:03:27.120
So basically, Xi Jinping needs to export a lot to Africa to keep his country going.
00:03:33.880
You had mentioned the recession in China, and who really knows how bad it is, because nothing
00:03:39.840
we get out of China, it's sort of like the Biden administration, nothing we get out of
00:03:45.760
What do you predict they really are as for GDP, as for exports, you know, over the last year
00:03:54.180
Yeah, China claimed 4.7 percent growth for the second quarter of this year.
00:03:59.200
That is a mythical figure because China was probably hovering around zero.
00:04:05.160
And since the end of the second quarter, we've seen marked deterioration in the Chinese economy,
00:04:18.020
If it weren't for the worsening food shortages in China, which has raised prices of food,
00:04:23.200
the consumer price index would also, I think, be negative.
00:04:26.700
Right now, it is positive, as we saw for August.
00:04:30.300
But once you strip out food and some other things and get to core inflation, I think that
00:04:39.500
And you can't have robust growth if you're in a deflationary cycle downward.
00:04:46.300
And as I mentioned, his prescriptions to get this done are just not realistic.
00:04:52.200
So I don't see that they'll be able to save their economy.
00:04:57.620
In America, we have Joe Biden to thank for what's happened to this economy, whether it's,
00:05:01.240
you know, killing every single new lease for oil to drill or exporting everything they
00:05:08.080
could possibly export overseas and not hire and buy American.
00:05:15.620
Well, Xi Jinping has been general secretary of the Communist Party since November 2012.
00:05:22.580
If you step back, clearly, China right now is having its 2008 downturn.
00:05:29.600
In 2008, they decided not to have a downturn along with the rest of the world.
00:05:36.240
They built too many high speed rail lines, too many bridges.
00:05:42.080
And now they're having trouble sort of digesting the debt.
00:05:45.900
But Xi Jinping has made it worse because he believes in a state dominated economy.
00:05:50.600
So he's not only pushing out the foreign businesses, he's also pushing out domestic Chinese private
00:05:57.480
These are the most productive parts of the Chinese economy.
00:06:00.600
These are the parts of the economy that led the revival in the reform era, which is basically
00:06:08.440
So Xi Jinping deserves a lot of blame for this.
00:06:13.000
So I actually read something this morning that he's actually they're asking they're offering
00:06:18.900
for companies to come in and start businesses in China, private companies in China.
00:06:23.600
I don't think a lot of people realize that anything there's no such thing as private in China.
00:06:28.860
Everything's controlled by China up until the very words you say or the baby that comes out
00:06:33.860
Who would be dumb enough to go into China and start a new business, seeing after what
00:06:38.180
we saw happen during covid, whether it be 90 percent of our medical supplies and medicine
00:06:44.680
are deadly medicines that we need in this country from India and China, who would be so
00:06:52.360
And I say give them because they're not stealing our intellectual property.
00:06:56.100
Who would be dumb enough to go over there and start anything?
00:06:59.660
Basically, that's a great question, because as Xi Jinping has been pushing foreign companies
00:07:07.040
out and they've been leaving, there are sort of two categories of companies that want in.
00:07:17.880
And the other is American pharmaceutical companies are starting to think about putting more production
00:07:26.120
And I think eventually the American drug companies are going to decide that this is not a good
00:07:34.300
You know, the interesting thing, I love Elon Musk.
00:07:40.660
And there, you know, I always used to tell him, like, you know, you know, why don't you
00:07:46.840
But he had one problem with him and his dependency on China.
00:07:50.580
Without China, Elon Musk can't make a car battery.
00:07:52.800
And, you know, they've kind of got him in a position.
00:07:56.480
And if these German car makers don't see that, that Elon can't get out of China because he's
00:08:02.480
I want to ask you, the Trump tariffs that he put on, does that have anything to do with
00:08:06.860
what's going on with their economy right now that the Biden administration has left on?
00:08:11.940
President Trump said that he would increase the China tariffs to at least 60 percent and maybe
00:08:22.500
First of all, you know, the 2018 tariffs that President Trump put in place, those were for
00:08:30.740
Those were remedies for the theft of U.S. intellectual property.
00:08:33.780
They were imposed under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.
00:08:38.280
Really, though, going forward, any new tariffs are going to be because of China's predatory trade
00:08:44.460
What they are doing is they're using massive subsidies to domestic Chinese companies to
00:08:51.720
basically produce more than China could ever consume.
00:08:57.000
But Xi Jinping is doubling down on that, which means that this is a violation not only of their
00:09:02.520
World Trade Organization obligations, but this is also like the biggest beggar thy neighbor
00:09:10.660
And basically, Xi Jinping doesn't want any other country to manufacture anything.
00:09:20.480
These tariffs need to go up and they need to be substantial.
00:09:26.120
We're going to talk about that on the other side of this break.
00:09:27.880
You had mentioned the possibility of Trump putting more tariffs on them.
00:09:31.160
I think a big problem that sits in Trump's heart, and I say his heart because I think it's near
00:09:35.580
and dear to him is COVID and that he never did anything to get back at China for COVID.
00:09:40.280
So I think when Trump comes back in, he's going to be looking for retribution, and I think
00:09:48.940
Folks, as a lot of you may know, Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their
00:09:52.880
box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.
00:09:55.520
They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
00:10:01.780
When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one problem, one solution company.
00:10:06.260
Well, since then, with the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products
00:10:12.960
To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.
00:10:28.260
This amazing offer won't last long, so order now.
00:10:39.220
Use promo code John, J-O-H-N, or call 800-969-3077.
00:10:46.180
And be sure to use promo code John, that's J-O-H-N, for all those amazing savings on all
00:10:57.520
And Gordon, right before we went to break there, we were talking about China and war
00:11:06.780
In World War I in America, we were going through a recession.
00:11:14.120
World War II from 1937 to 1939, we were in a recession.
00:11:18.420
Vietnam, we were experiencing extreme inflation.
00:11:21.060
China, obviously, is in a very bad place right now, and there's no doubt that war might help
00:11:28.900
There's a very short timeline with tsunami season coming and who they will attack.
00:11:33.880
Presumably Taiwan could be us, could be somebody else.
00:11:38.400
If they are to attack with the notion that President Trump comes back in November, give
00:11:43.980
me a timeline, if you will, of when they will and how they'll go about doing so.
00:11:52.560
In general, we've got to be prepared for anything at any place at any time.
00:11:57.940
But if we're looking at what is most probable, I don't think the Chinese will start hostilities
00:12:08.780
But what we have been seeing in the Philippines, in the South China Sea, especially since the
00:12:14.720
middle of June, indicates that's the most likely place.
00:12:19.360
One of the reasons why China won't attack Taiwan, in my belief, is that it's too hard, too many
00:12:27.380
I think they're looking for a quick political win, and they believe that the Philippines is
00:12:34.200
You know, Xi Jinping right now, he can't save the Chinese economy unless he does something
00:12:42.780
I don't think that he, I think he eventually will see that he's going to be lost.
00:12:48.120
And he wants a war, not because the Chinese people want it.
00:12:51.260
Chinese people right now do not want war, and they especially don't want a war with Taiwan.
00:12:56.140
But I think that Xi Jinping would start a war because he'd want to prevent other senior
00:13:08.500
And the Philippines is the most likely place for that because of what we've been seeing
00:13:15.580
I mean, China has an issue in the islands down there that we don't have over here, and
00:13:20.620
they don't have over in the Middle East, and that's monsoon season.
00:13:23.440
So it gives them a very short window on when they could attack.
00:13:26.980
First, if you will, give me a timeline of when they could.
00:13:30.680
You don't have to be very specific, but will it be in the next two, three months?
00:13:35.460
Yeah, I tend not to think in the next two, three months.
00:13:39.120
But remember, what they're doing in the Philippines every week can start a war.
00:13:45.040
So one of those incidents can spiral out of control.
00:13:51.500
But in terms of China actually thinking about provoking a war, if you have to have a time
00:14:01.640
And the reason is, I don't think it's so much time to events in the US.
00:14:06.500
I think it's time to events inside China, inside the top of the Communist Party, which
00:14:13.020
And I think that what will be timed eventually, too, will be the failure of what we were talking
00:14:22.900
But I think that they're going to come to a conclusion pretty soon that they cannot save
00:14:28.780
And that's when I think that they make the go, no go decision.
00:14:33.500
So you're not sold on the on the prospect of Trump having anything to do with it.
00:14:40.460
But I think that Xi Jinping is reacting primarily to domestic incentives inside the Communist Party,
00:14:48.200
because that's the way that they normally have reacted in the past.
00:14:52.220
If you go back through Communist Party history, go back to 1949, it's primarily they're reacting
00:15:04.840
We can't say right now that Xi Jinping has made the decision to go to war, but we can
00:15:09.640
say one thing 100 percent, and that is he's made the decision to risk war because he has
00:15:17.440
And so he is prepared to go to war at this time or at any time.
00:15:23.380
You had to mention it's interesting because he's been beating the Taiwan drum beat for
00:15:30.200
a very long time, giving us dates 20, 25, 20, 30, and so on.
00:15:33.780
When did the pivot come from going into Taiwan to now looking at the Philippines?
00:15:42.220
Yeah, I don't know the answer to that question, but I can tell you that, you know, we've seen
00:15:47.040
very hostile air and naval maneuvers against Taiwan, but they've never really gone beyond
00:15:57.340
And in February of this year, China actually had in its mind a cause for war because that
00:16:04.480
was when two Chinese fishermen drowned after being pursued by the Taiwan Coast Guard.
00:16:10.740
Now, those Chinese fishermen should not have been in Taiwan's waters.
00:16:13.780
But in China's mind, that was a reason to go to war.
00:16:21.780
And after that, it, I think, became clear that they were going after the Philippines rather
00:16:30.820
And people in Taiwan, they're thinking it might be a blockade, might be a quarantine.
00:16:38.800
But that's very different than launching an invasion against the main island of Taiwan.
00:16:47.180
So I want to tie something else into this now, and that's North Korea.
00:16:50.400
Xi Jinping sending a letter to Pyongyang and Kim Jong-un telling him he wants to strengthen
00:16:56.160
ties with him, you know, after not talking with him for eight months.
00:17:03.000
Yeah, most people believe that North Korea has moved far away from China and very close
00:17:11.520
Kim Jong-un went to a Russian cosmodrome near Vladivostok last September.
00:17:20.520
That's when they signed up their mutual defense treaty and their comprehensive strategic partnership
00:17:25.620
I have a slightly different take on this, and that is that I believe that China was more
00:17:33.720
or less the mastermind between closer Russian-North Korea ties.
00:17:38.040
And the reason is both Russia and North Korea absolutely depend on China, and neither are in
00:17:47.000
So I think that we're seeing a little bit of kabuki.
00:17:49.980
I think that Xi Jinping likes all of this because what's happening is that North Korea is keeping
00:17:55.420
Russia in the Ukraine war, and Xi Jinping is not taking the heat for doing that.
00:18:01.380
So I think that China gets a lot of benefits from this.
00:18:04.600
I'm not prepared to say, oh, you know, the relationship between China and North Korea is
00:18:12.080
But nonetheless, I think the relations are really strong.
00:18:15.200
And we should assume that we have here North Korea, Iran, Russia, and China are forming a
00:18:23.020
durable partnership that is confronting us and waging war on the international system.
00:18:28.820
Yeah, I'm not entirely sure that any relationship with China is genuine.
00:18:32.540
I think at any point, if something were to happen and there had been a vulnerability, Russia
00:18:39.120
What does Russia do if China is to attack, we'll say, Taiwan or the Philippines?
00:18:53.560
Yeah, that really is a critical question, because, you know, we started by talking about
00:19:03.640
I think that we have to assume that if China starts a war in East Asia, that Russia will come
00:19:12.240
I'm not saying that 100%, but I have to say that when we plan for war, that's what we
00:19:18.520
have to just assume will happen, because we see that Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, they
00:19:24.420
have been coordinating all their policies, including their naval and air maneuvers.
00:19:31.080
So this is a military relationship as much as anything else.
00:19:35.660
And Xi Jinping has been fully behind Russia, keeping it in the war in Ukraine.
00:19:41.480
So I think that Vladimir Putin, if Xi Jinping asks him to or demands that he do that, I
00:19:48.660
don't think Vladimir Putin's in a position to say no.
00:19:51.680
It's very interesting, because, you know, if that were to happen, Vladimir Putin would
00:19:56.380
have a war on the left of him and a war on the right of him.
00:19:58.580
And when he invaded Ukraine, we all expected it, I think, to just be days, maybe a week,
00:20:03.900
But as long as it's gone on, I think we all overestimated, and correct me if I'm wrong,
00:20:11.620
You know, we anticipated, I think they had a lot more soldiers than they really had, a
00:20:16.120
lot more military arsenal than they really had.
00:20:19.760
How does Russia, they can't even win a war against Ukraine.
00:20:24.180
I mean, they're winning it, you know, on its face right now, but they can't finish the
00:20:29.120
How does Russia now get into a war over in the Philippines or Taiwan?
00:20:35.180
Well, they've got a Pacific fleet, and, you know, it's more, I think, that because Xi
00:20:41.800
Jinping has been providing substantial assistance to Russia's war effort in Ukraine, Putin just
00:20:48.640
You know, Putin might not want to go to war in East Asia, but I don't think he really
00:20:55.580
So right now, you know, you're absolutely right.
00:21:01.220
I thought that, you know, Russia would take Kiev in a week, you know, two weeks at the
00:21:10.580
So, you know, right now, Russia is bogged down.
00:21:14.300
You know, it's making some gains in the Donbass, but it's losing in the Kursk area.
00:21:24.060
So, yeah, they're having a real hard time staying in this war.
00:21:28.360
Yeah, I don't want to equate it to, like, if the U.S. would evade Mexico, but the war
00:21:34.260
just doesn't make sense to me, Russia and Ukraine, and how it's gone on for so long.
00:21:38.640
I mean, Ukraine's getting a crap ton of money from America and other nations.
00:21:48.200
When we return, I want to talk about the declining birth rates in China.
00:21:51.360
And now China putting a pause on anyone adopting Chinese children.
00:21:54.860
I also want to take up what happens if Kamala Harris wins, what that means for America and
00:22:11.320
Gordon, before we went to break, I said that we were talking about the China birth rates
00:22:17.000
Apparently, China's turning their kindergartens into nursing homes now as they, you know,
00:22:27.220
You know, you have abortion centers on every corner.
00:22:29.080
The Democrats wanting to abort every child that's inside the womb of a woman.
00:22:33.840
What does this mean for China now that they've stopped now allowing foreigners to adopt Chinese
00:22:40.820
What it means for China is that the country is in long-term, almost irreversible decline.
00:22:48.040
China now has a population of about 1.4 billion.
00:22:52.740
By the turn of the century, China could be 488, 490 million people, maybe a little bit more.
00:23:05.860
But we're seeing a collapse in the total fertility rate.
00:23:10.640
We're seeing all sorts of signs which indicate that China will lose somewhere on the order
00:23:16.100
of two-thirds of its population between now and the time the clock strikes 2100.
00:23:21.740
This will be the steepest decline in history in the absence of war or disease.
00:23:27.640
And we have little idea how it's going to affect Chinese society.
00:23:32.300
Because no country has gone through this unless it's been ravaged by a war or disease.
00:23:39.820
So right now, but it means that, you know, China is going to be a small, mid-sized country
00:23:49.680
It's not going to be the behemoth that everybody envisions now.
00:23:53.000
And that has so many geopolitical and other consequences.
00:23:56.220
Yeah, they're calling it a, quote, severely aging society by 2035, even before the turn
00:24:05.960
I mean, this is a nation, as we just said before, that, I mean, they do everything to
00:24:09.920
tell you, even up and to tell you how to hold your fork and knife.
00:24:13.880
How do you get to a situation now where you have a country that depends on its military
00:24:19.840
and its citizens to be enrolled in its military and ready to fight at any moment?
00:24:24.060
How do you get into a situation like this now where, like you said, at the turn of the
00:24:29.880
They're even saying now by 2035 and just 11 years, they're even bigger trouble.
00:24:36.580
You know, at one point, China was telling you how many kids you were allowed to have,
00:24:39.280
how many boys you're allowed to have, and girls.
00:24:41.980
Now we're at a situation where they don't even want to get rid of their own people.
00:24:46.900
Yeah, it got into this in two different ways, John.
00:24:49.880
One of them was the one-child policy that was put into effect at the end of the 1970s.
00:24:55.620
You know, before that, China had a total fertility rate, which is the average number of children
00:25:03.060
They had a total fertility rate in somewhere like 5.9 or something, very high.
00:25:09.660
And then essentially what they said was, look, people can only have one child.
00:25:19.340
But they ended the one-China policy in the end of 2015.
00:25:25.000
And the Chinese people did not respond by an increase in fertility rates.
00:25:30.980
And the reason is that there's been pessimism in Chinese society.
00:25:35.380
Right now there's a gloom where people are just opting out,
00:25:39.760
which is one of the reasons why we have so many Chinese people
00:25:42.600
trying to get into other countries, including ours, by the way.
00:25:46.800
So really what this shows is, you know, Chinese people just do not want to reproduce.
00:25:52.980
This was highlighted last year when a viral video of a Chinese male,
00:25:59.400
basically early 30s, looking into the camera and saying,
00:26:03.740
I love my son so much, I will not allow him to be born into this society.
00:26:10.660
So that's the mentality of the Chinese people right now.
00:26:15.800
I mean, you look at everything that goes on in China.
00:26:18.480
And I mean, you could say the same thing for America.
00:26:22.220
You're putting them into a society where when they're born,
00:26:29.640
And, you know, if they're a Muslim, they could end up in a concentration camp.
00:26:33.560
You know, I just don't understand, you know, how we got to this point.
00:26:41.200
It's America's fault, too, for propping them up for so long.
00:26:44.160
I want to turn to Tim Waltz, who spent years promoting a research facility
00:26:52.480
What does it mean for a Waltz-Harris administration and China?
00:26:56.600
Because if you're reading the New York Times, they say that Tim Waltz's long-term relationship
00:27:08.200
Well, I believe that Tim Waltz is a true believer.
00:27:12.280
And we've seen this, you know, in the 1990s, the following decade,
00:27:17.500
when he was running high school students to China to be exposed to Communist Party propaganda,
00:27:22.000
he could not have conducted those operations without the approval of the
00:27:26.340
Communist Party's United Front Work Department, which is the part of the party that subverts
00:27:32.560
Now, Tim Waltz could make an argument saying, I was just young and naive and stupid.
00:27:37.220
But the problem is, we've seen this with Daily Caller reporting of August 27th,
00:27:42.060
that Tim Waltz, as governor of Minnesota, has maintained continuous contacts with United
00:27:48.800
Front Work Department front organizations in Minnesota.
00:27:53.300
So clearly, this is something that he believes in.
00:27:55.780
And also, you know, we've heard Tim Waltz recently say that socialism is just like being a good
00:28:05.260
And if their ticket wins in November, that means we may have a communist sympathizer one
00:28:14.300
What's amusing to me, and it's not really amusing, but it's just the hypocrisy of it all.
00:28:19.840
Tim Waltz last week was at an event for inclusivity, and it was nonetheless an LGBTQXYZ event where,
00:28:29.020
you know, he was promoting Get Out, and that these people should, you know, be able to do this
00:28:34.020
But what you didn't hear about is the Uyghur camps.
00:28:36.780
And while he worked with China for years, I mean, that's something now that's come to light
00:28:45.840
But a lot of people still don't know what Uyghur camps are.
00:28:49.160
Tell the audience, if you will, Gordon, for those who don't know, what China does to these
00:28:52.680
people that they're putting in concentration camps?
00:28:55.780
China, especially since 2017, has been committing crimes against humanity against the Uyghurs,
00:29:06.340
And this has been such a fierce campaign that it actually constitutes genocide, as it's defined
00:29:16.860
We don't know exactly how many, but could be somewhere between two and three million Uyghurs
00:29:22.080
and Kazakhs and others in concentration camp facilities.
00:29:25.780
They have made sure that the Uyghurs can't reproduce.
00:29:32.120
As official policy, there's official policy of rape of Uyghur women.
00:29:40.480
We know that because they built a crematorium between two of these detention facilities.
00:29:48.280
So this is an attempt to eliminate Uyghur culture and identity.
00:29:53.720
They're doing the same thing more or less with Tibetans.
00:29:58.020
And they're now starting in earnest against the Mongolians.
00:30:01.540
So this is a program countrywide to eliminate minority consciousness.
00:30:08.040
Yeah, and this is obviously something that's pushed by.
00:30:12.800
And it's only these bad people you see in America who are doing business with China.
00:30:16.280
And I mean, personal business, the Biden crime family, the Clintons, the Tim Walz family.
00:30:22.640
I want to wrap up with Donald Trump and his return to the White House.
00:30:27.700
He's valuing up to 100 percent tariff on countries ditching the U.S. dollar.
00:30:31.920
He's saying, quote, you don't leave the dollar.
00:30:34.440
You leave the dollar and you're not doing business with the United States because we're going to put 100 percent tariff on your goods.
00:30:40.480
He's tired of China's currency manipulation, which we've fallen prey to over the last few years.
00:30:45.240
If we do see 100 percent tariff placed on goods from China and countries that are taking advantage of America, what does that mean for America and what does it mean for China?
00:30:55.260
Well, for China, it probably means the end of their economy, because Xi Jinping has put his fate into the hands of those countries that buy Chinese goods.
00:31:08.600
And it means that we have a chance of ending the communist threat without the use of force.
00:31:22.040
But because of five decades of truly misguided and horrible American policy towards China, or at least one can say three decades of very, very bad policy toward China, every option we have is dangerous right now.
00:31:38.240
And so I think President Trump has the right idea.
00:31:42.120
It is the only way that we're going to get out of this without war, in my view.
00:31:46.940
Yeah, I think November 5th is America's, you know, saving grace day or, you know, it's day of detriment.
00:31:54.740
And hopefully Americans go to the polls that day and, you know, they vote their conscience, because I don't think we could live another four years of what we've seen, because it's only going to get worse from here.
00:32:04.800
And who knows how much worse it will really get.
00:32:09.220
