Unfortunately, while the Chinese Communist Party has widely denounced Pete’s remarks, its dictator, Xi Jinping, may be inclined to discount them – unless accompanied by actions that credibly deter the kind of blockade or invasion for which China’s military has been “rehearsing.”
Such steps should include: enforcing Trump’s “America First Investment Policy” to stop U.S. underwriting of the Chinese military; implementing a counter-mafia strategy to root out the CCP’s “old friends” here; securing the Panama Canal and moving significant elements of the Atlantic fleet through it ASAP; issuing a presidential statement today opposing the CCP’s threat to freedom in South Korea; and finding and removing Chinese soldiers inside America.
