"TUCKER CARLSON TONIGHT." >> A N
FOR THE WITT AFTER BIDEN VOWED
AMERICA WOULD BE RESPECTED AROUND THE WORLD OUR
AROUND THE WORLD OUR
RELATIONSHIP WITH CHINA.
CHINA IS CALLING NANCY PELOSI’S
VISIT A PROVOCATION. CHINA BIGGEST ALLY RUSSIA
CHINA BIGGEST ALLY RUSSIA
BACKING THEIR FRIEND 100 PERCENT
PERCENT.
NOW WITH ANALYSIS IS FORMER
MASSACHUSSETTS SENATOR SCOTT
BROWN WITH CONTRIBUTOR AND
FORMER STATION CIA STATION CHIEF
DAN HOFFMAN.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I CAN BELIEVE I HAVE TO OPEN A
SEGMENT FOR YOU TWO GUYS TALKING
ABOUT HOW CHINA IS SCREAMING AT
US AND WE ARE RUNNING AWAY LIKE
SCARED RABBITS WITH CONFLICTING
MESSAGES OUT OF THE WITT WHICH
SAYS WE DON’T SUPPORT TAIWAN
INDEPENDENCE WHILE NANCY PELOSI
IS GOING OVER THERE HUGGING
THEM.
THAT ALONE SCOTT I THINK WOULD
SEND A MESSAGE THAT THE AMERICAN
GOVERNMENT IS ITSELF DIVIDED ON
THIS ISSUE WHAT’S YOUR TAKE ON
ALL OF THIS?
>> FIRST I’VE BEEN TO CHINA AND
TAIWAN 2-3 TIMES MANY TAIWAN IS
AN AMAZING COUNTRY.
THEY’RE A DEMOCRACY, SUPPLY A
LOT OF CHIPS WE NEED FOR
MILITARY AND OTHER NEEDS AND
CHINA ARE A BIG BULLY.
YOU GET OFF THE TRAIN IT SMELLS
LIKE AN ASHTRY, BIGGEST
POLLUTERS, AN THEY HAVE A 600
YEAR PLAN AND WE DON’T HAVE A
PLAN.
THE SPLINTERED NATURE OF THE
BIDEN POLICY YOU SEE IN UKRAINE
TAIWAN AND THE UNITED STATES.
I THOUGHT NANCY PELOSI DID THE
RIGHT THING.
MY ONLY REGRET IS SHE DIDN’T
INCLUDE MORE REPUBLICANS.
SHE HAS THE RIGHT TO TRAVEL.
SHE HAS THE RIGHT TO GO ANYWHERE
SHE WANTS WHERE THEY ARE IN THE
UNITED STATES OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA AND JOE BIDEN
SHOULDN’T HAVE THROWN HER UNDER
THE CARPET BECAUSE CHINA IS A
BULLY.
I DON’T WANT TO TAKE DAN’S TIME.
>> THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION
IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHAT CHINA
SEEMS TO CONTROL, THAT OF COURSE
DID A DISSERVICE TO THIS ENTIRE
PLANET WHEN COVID WAS EMERGING
AND DAN, I THINK WE ALL AGREE I
LOVE THAT SHE WAS GOING TO
TAIWAN BUT WE PRESUME THAT IT’S
AN ORGANIZED DYNAMIC INVOLVING
OUR ENTIRE GOVERNMENT AND
EVERYONE IS IN AGREEMENT, AND WE
ARE NOT GOING TO DISPLAY THE
FAMILY FIGHT IN FRONT OF THE
ENEMY, WHICH THEY THEN KNOW AND
I THINK IT INSPIRES THEM AND
THEY USE THAT AND FIGURE THEY
CAN DO EVEN MORE AND MOVE
FORWARD EVEN MORE AGGRESSIVELY.
NORMALLY THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A
VISIT THAT REINFORCED OUR
STRENGTH AND OUR SUPPORT OF A
FRIEND AND WOULD YOU AGREE IT
SEEMS TO HAVE DONE THE OPPOSITE
AT THIS POINT?
>> WELL, I THINK THAT IT IS A
BUSINESS DISTURBING THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION WAS BEHIND THE
SCENES DISCOURAGING SPEAKER
PELOSI FROM MAKING THAT TRIP BUT
I AGREE THAT SHE DID THE RIGHT
THING BY GOING AHEAD WITNESS I
THINK THE ADMINISTRATION MUST
HAVE ASKED OUR INTELLIGENCE
COMMUNITY HOW WOULD CHINA
RESPOND TO THIS VISIT AND WHAT
WE’VE SEEN IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY
AGGRESSIVE ASYMMETRIC RESPONSE.
YOU LOOK AT THE MILITARY DRILLS
THAT STARTED YESTERDAY THAT
EFFECTIVELY BLOCKADE TAIWAN
UNTIL SUNDAY.
THAT IS A PRETTY EXTREME MEASURE
BUT I THINK WHAT CHINA IS TRYING
TO DO.
THEY KNOW THE UNITED STATES WILL
CARRY ON WITH THE RELATIONSHIP
WITH TAIWAN.
THEY’RE TRYING TO DELIVER A
STARK CLEAR MESSAGE TO COUNTRIES
IN THE REGION AND BEYOND THAT
THE COST OF A RELATIONSHIP WITH
TAIWAN IS TOO HIGH AND THEY
SHOULDN’T DO IT.
THIS ADMINISTRATION I AGREE WITH
SENATOR BROWN NEEDS TO PUSH BACK
WITH A REAL STRATEGY TO PREVENT
THAT FROM HAPPENING.
>> WHAT WOULD THAT BE?
WHEN WE SAY CHINA IS SENSING A
MESSAGE THERE’S THE COST IS TOO
HIGH TO DO THIS, YOU KNOW WHAT
WOULD THAT COST BE?
WOULD THEY TAKE THEIR OTHER
ISLANDS THAT ARE CLOSE TO
TAIWAN?
WOULD THEY TAKE THOSE?
WOULD THEY STOP TALKS WHICH THEY
PROBABLY WERE NOT SERIOUS ABOUT
IN THE FIRST PLACE?
WHAT ELSE WOULD THEY DO THAT
THEY THINK WE MIGHT DO AS A RESPONSE TO THIS?
RESPONSE TO THIS?
>> WELL, THEIR MILITARIZING THE
TAIWAN SEA TRYING TO INDUCE
TAIWAN NEIGHBORS IN THE REGION
DIP MATTED I CANLY AND NO. LICK
TO ISOLATE TAIWAN.
WE NEED TO BE MORE FORCEFUL AND
INSHARE FREEDOM OF NAVIGATION IS
UPHELD IN THAT REGION.
WE NEED TO WORK CLOSELY WITH OUR
ALLIES PARTICULARLY JAPAN AND
AUSTRALIA AND PUSH BACK ON CHINA
WITH ALL OF GOVERNMENT APPROACH
IN OUR COUNTRY TO DEAL WITH
THEIR FULL TECHNOLOGICALED
ESPIONAGE AND STEALING
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
>> CONSIDERING WHAT CHINA IS
DOING TO THIS COUNTRY WITH
ESPIONAGE WITH MACK HACKING OF
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY WHAT DO
YOU THINK WE CAN DO?
>> FIRST UNDER PRESIDENT TRUMP I
SERVED FOUR YEARS INTO THE ASIAN
PACIFIC.
I SAW WHAT THEY DO, CHANGING THE
LAW OF THE SEA AND INTERNATIONAL
LAW OVERLEVERAGING PACIFIC
ISLAND NATIONS TO GET U.N.
VOTES.
THEY’RE VERY METHODICAL.
THEY BRING PEOPLE TO BRING A
PROJECT.
THEY BRING THE FOOD THE
ARCHITECTURAL SUPPLIES, THEY’VE
THE PEOPLE THERE AND SLOWLY BUT
SURELY TAKE OVER THESE ISLAND
NATIONS.
ONE THING WE NEED TO DO IS FREE
TRADE DEALS WITH A LOT OF THESE
COUNTRIES MANY WE NEED TO GIVE
SUPPORT.
IN NEW ZEALAND FOR EXAMPLE WE
DON’T HAVE A TRADE BILL.
IT’S BEEN IMPROPERED SINCE 1954.
THEY’RE NOT GETTING THE SUPPORT
THEY NEED FROM THE UNITED
STATES.
