"It will make the English Civil War look like patty cake. We gotta ask ourselves the question, are we getting closer or further away day to day to taking back the White House in 2024? The answer is we have basically done a U -turn and said, ah, who cares? I want my guy to finish third in Iowa. Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA. The investment world is completely different in 2023 and you cannot do the same thing as last year. Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.

And look, we're gonna talk about George Floyd in the next segment, but because of the left's nonstop pathological campaign to try to misrepresent America as a racist country and the Republican party as Nazis and conservatives as racist, there is a desire to overcorrect and overcompensate. And even Politico recognizes this, by the way. This is not a controversial take. Politico says basically black Republicans running for office are able to raise money pretty easily. It says here, black Republicans have had boomlets before. Herman Cain and Ben Carson didn't begin with $22 million in the bank and have Senate leaders and plutocrats to say nothing of respected moderates, such as Governor Bill Haslam and foreigner, Colorado Senator Cory Gardner at there announcements and yeah, I mean, look, Republicans have been in search of their own Obama since 2008 as if that's gonna solve all of our problems. And it's too bad that you have to look at everything through a racial lens because Senator Tim Scott, regardless of his race has a lot actually to offer in a very, very powerful and charismatic way. I think he's a thoughtful person, even though he's far more moderate than I am on certain issues. And so Senator Tim Scott certainly will continue to resonate with a more moderate Republican donor that they want center right policies. They definitely want someone who they would consider to be presentable to the Aspen Jackson Hole, Kenny Bunkport kind of summer crowd, the Hamptons crowd. Oh, this is Senator Scott and he's not like that guy that you don't like. He's a moderate and he's center right. There's a lot of white guilt too, that pervades some of these donor decisions, make no mistake. And by the way, that's the major financing motivation of BLM was white guilt, but that's too bad because I think actually Senator Scott has earned that money and I'd hate to mislabel earned raising that money mislabeled as always just people are giving it because they feel bad. But that's a major motivation and Politico agrees by the way, Politico agrees that black Republicans do quite well when they raise capital. And there's multiple reasons for that as I just articulated it. So, but Ron DeSantis is pretty upset about it. Governor DeSantis doesn't want more of these candidates sucking up donor money, sucking up attention. By the way, governor Yonkin might run for office from Virginia. As I mentioned, you've got governor Doug Burnham from North Dakota who's gonna go spend 30 or $40 million. He's super rich. He did a lot of deals with Bill Gates. He's very close with Bill Gates. That dog's not gonna hunt. That plays not gonna play in Peoria, but sure. Go to Iowa and go to New Hampshire. Chris Christie might run for the presidency which the Chris Christie one is very interesting to me for a variety of reasons. Chris Christie is saying based on reports that he will be financed primarily by billionaire Steve Cohen worth $20 billion owner of the New York Mets. And the way that campaign finance law basically works now is you can kind of run a very thin campaign political operation, and then you can have a plutocrat oligarch just underwrite your entire campaign via a super PAC. And meanwhile, at Mar -a -Lago, Donald Trump and his team are looking around and they are delighting in this. And I say this as a Trump guy. I mean, the more of these candidates that are going to divide themselves and fracture themselves from a primary standpoint, it's excellent. From a general election standpoint which is needs to be the prime directive, the prime directive, the North Star, the telos, the purpose the mission statement, the thing that orients all of our action needs to be winning the White House in 2024. This is a catastrophe for that effort. That is why I have said on this program that the odds of us winning the White House in 2024 are decreasing in likelihood the more that we have these third and fourth and fifth and sixth and seventh and eighth tier candidates going into the arena and spending money on what is a vanity project. Chris Christie, you're not going to be president. Doug Burnham, you're not going to be president. Asa Hutchinson, you're not going to be president. And by the way, can we just spend a second and say has Nikki Haley's presidential campaign been one of the most depressing and underwhelming announcements? This is a woman who I thought was the future of the Republican party for quite some time. I still text with her and I think she's a nice person. We disagree vehemently on foreign policy and other things. So I'm not going to say anything necessarily negative about her because I really don't have anything negative. She's always been really nice and sweet, but she's not gaining traction at all. I mean, there was some idea like, oh, maybe Nikki Haley could consolidate support. And there is not a market right now for what Nikki Haley is selling. She says, well, people want a choice, not an echo. I say, yeah, go to a diner in Iowa and ask them that. No, they want an insurgent. They want a rebel. They want a street fighter. They want a brawler. They want someone who's going to take the administrative state and tear it in half and represent voters in a populist nationalist way, close the border, end the war, put tariffs on China and revitalize and restore the country and not someone who is going to pander to donors' interests, wants and needs from a chamber of commerce filtered perspective..

"How Tim Scott plans to stand out in a GOP that craves catastrophe. By many racker. When south Carolina senator Tim Scott launched a presidential exploratory committee on Wednesday, it seemed like he had a lot going for him. His Senate colleagues speak glowingly about him, he recently brought on former Colorado senator Cory Gardner, who previously chaired the national Republican senatorial committee to co chair the super PAC supporting his political goals. GOP mega donors, lob Scott, too. Tech billionaire, Larry Ellison, who has given more than $20 million to the Scott aligned super PAC, is just one of the Republican power players who have backed him. There may be some people who don't like him, but I've never met one, says longtime Republican consultant with heirs. Yet in the Republican 2024 primary. That may not be enough. Scott is currently polling around 1%, as the presidential field begins to take shape, Scott faces the daunting task of carving out space at the helm of a party, still in the grip of former president Donald Trump. The most recent polls of the Republican primary field have found Trump with a commanding lead among the possible 2024 contenders. Sometimes earning the support of more than half of GOP voters. Trump's closest competition numbers wise is Florida governor Ron DeSantis, who has yet to launch a bed. Both men have built reputations as pugnacious, culture warriors. It remains to be seen whether Scott's alternative, a positive message focused on unity, faith in America, and is owned biography can move voters into his column. I wish that there was a lane for a sunny optimist, telling an optimistic story about America. Says anti Trump Republican strategist Sarah longwell. But in the last 8 years, Donald Trump has made a Republican Party that craves catastrophe. Longwell continues, there needs to be really only one other lane, and that is an alternative to Donald Trump. It's not clear that anti Trump voters will see Scott as their best bet. The Trump lane, the anti Trump lane, the more than maga. I don't think Scott fits in those things. Utah senator Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, told Politico earlier this month. There are a number of voters who are tired of all the sturm and drang, and the anger and the vituperative comments. On the other hand, the base is still with folks who are adept at those things. In a launch video posted Wednesday, Scott espoused an optimistic vision of the country based on his experience growing up in poverty. We had faith, he says in the video, we put in the work, and we had an unwavering belief that we, too, could live the American Dream. I know America is a land of opportunity, not a land of oppression. I know it because I've lived it. He aimed his criticisms at president Joe Biden and Democrats. Rather than at other Republicans. Asked on Fox and Friends how he planned to beat Trump, he did not directly answer the question. In order to carve out his own lane in the race, he'll have to emphasize his unique strengths, strategists say. In addition to his good reputation among donors, he could capitalize on the fact that he's from South Carolina, an early primary state, where a strong showing might improve his political standing. But he faces competition even for that niche with former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley. Another non white south carolinian, touting a unique personal story and optimistic vision for America, who has already been running for two months. But arguably, more than Haley, Scott has emphasized his race throughout his political career. A source familiar with his organization tells time that his story of achieving the American Dream and his firsthand experience with the vitriol Democrats have sometimes demonstrated toward black Republicans are likely to be key differentiators for his campaign. Joe Biden and the radical left have chosen a culture of grievance over greatness. Scott says in his launch video, all too often, when they get called out for their failures, they weaponize, race to divide us, to hold on to their power. When I fought back against their liberal agenda, they called me a prop, a token, because I disrupt their narrative. I threatened their control. They know the truth of my life, disproves their lies. Of all the things that set him apart, strategists inside and outside Scott's orbit say his identity may give him the most unique opportunity to appeal to Republicans. They'll say they don't care a lot about that because we don't believe in identity politics as Republicans, ayers says. But they know that the country is changing, and they know that a different kind of candidate would be very attractive. As the Senate's only black Republican, Scott has championed issues popular among conservatives, like anti abortion legislation and tax cuts. But he has also distinguished himself by leaning into his personal story. Scott has often talked about his experiences being racially profiled by police, including on his way into the capital years after joining Congress. Working with democratic senator Cory Booker, Scott helped institute opportunity zones, which created tax advantages for investments in economically distressed communities. And the tax plan Trump signed in 2017. After the 2020 murder of George Floyd, Scott and Booker became their party's lead negotiators on police reform. But failed to reach a compromise. Prior to that, Scott sunk more than one of Trump's judicial nominees who faced race related controversies. But in a party that's overwhelmingly white, and which has, at times, stoked racial grievance, identity may not be the easiest selling point. Asked by time in a February interview about whether Republican presidential candidates of color might benefit from their identities, Michael Steele, the first black chair of the Republican National Committee wasn't convinced. Y'all get the folks who say, oh, it's really cool to have a black person. Steele said. I went through that crap when I got elected national chairman. The Republican primary is going to require them to say and do and act a certain way. Steel said, that's not necessarily going to be consistent or appreciated by communities of color. Because my bet is they're going to pivot to try to appease the Trump wing of the base. They don't want to lose that. They don't want to offend them..

"That's why I can't understand for the life of me why they are not more female lawmakers bucking these draconian laws well in the Republican side. That's very easy. It's because they don't want to be seen as problem makers. So I think you see there's plenty of there's plenty of opposition from the democratic side and in particular again I'll raise up the progressives on this. Raising that issue. In terms of why these laws are bad and wrong and trying to overturn roe versus wade, but yeah, by and large, of course, female yeah, white Republicans are very, very silent on this. They are, they are especially the Catholic white Republicans. And for that matter, people of color, Catholics, Republicans are silent as well. But that, that's sticky wicked of another. I've always stood on this stance abortion as a woman's right to choose. It's her right, I'm not gonna inject religion. I'm not gonna inject morality. I'm not gonna inject, you know, anything else. It's a woman's right to choose. Period. That's my stance and it's always been my stance. Well, as long as I've been able to understand the dynamics, right? Because I spend enough time down in the Deep South and I've been to plenty of churches down south. And I understand that point of view as well. But in more recent years, the agendas of some people aren't necessarily in my view, aligning with those that I met in the past. Through church groups. All right. They are not the people that I interacted with. And remember from down there, we're not as militant as these people that profess to be leaders. In Washington. Okay. So that, in fact, it's why marijuana has been kept on the schedule one list. It had everything to do with supremacy. Think I'm kidding, go look it up. Go look it up. Nixon, Richard Nixon. Is the individual the sole individual that started the and I'm air quoting the war on drugs. Good old ski jump nose. Yeah. And I was a kid, I don't know why. It wasn't just me, either when I was in school. Everybody would always make fun of them because of his nose. I'm like ants could ski jump off that really easy. I want you to sit down young man. All right, ski jump shows. You're right. Okay. Sorry. So excuse me. So that is why the war on drugs exist. Still to this day. There is no war on drugs. It's a war on people of color. You know, now they suddenly think it's all great, right? Yeah. So let's be clear about that as well. So if you're going from one position as my brother just pointed out, you've effectively banned this substance for how many years at this point brother. Yeah, decade. Decades. And basing it on what my brother just said. By the way, sounds like you were reporting a jet brother. That's a fan going on in the background. I was like, okay, everybody get on board. How are you? Buckland. It's gonna be a show from 30,000 feet. All right. I'm sorry. Yes, the whole show is going to be like this, everybody. We're gonna be talking about something serious and then divert severely. I'm just sorry. I'm very well caffeinated today, but anyway, what I was saying was you have to go to the motivations, right? You have to look at how would you, okay, let's say it's 30 years. Let's just pick let's just pluck a number. 30 years, this has been against the law to grow to cultivate to use recreationally. And now, because by and large, a democratically led push, which, well, okay, now I have to be honest, actually. It wasn't necessarily Democrats. We had to look at the farm Bill. And as much as I hate to give him credit, the farm Bill, one of the plants that was taken off, did you call it scheduled sea brother? I always get that screwed up. Was hemp? And that was pushed through by colonel man. He woke up one day. From his sleep to sign the former, it became profitable. And that's my point. So now just to make my final point very quickly, that's what this is all about. Oh, sure. Because they've decided collectively, but they're not going to publicly frame it this way that we want to really keep this drug illegal. We could make a lot of money. Do we really care about the whole race thing? Because it's preventing us from making even more money. That's what this entire article is about. That's what the motivation is about. Nothing more complicated than that. Would you agree with that brother? No, I would. I would agree with that totally. And I'll give some more justification to that right now. The motivation bring in Republicans to the table are also changing as the article reads. Former Capitol Hill cannabis activists like senator Cory Gardner, Republican, Colorado, and representative Dana Rory baker, I think that's how it's pronounced forgive me if it's not. Republican California advocated primarily for their state legislation programs or legalization programs, excuse me. But maize comes from South Carolina, a state with no or medical record recreational cannabis program. She joins other GOP lawmakers who are pushing for federal policy to move beyond their own states. And these include, I'm sure they're.

I'm well, how are you this morning? Swell is one of those words by the way that they use in Pittsburgh. A lot s Oh, Selina. I loved your New York Post column, which I'm about to tweet out why the U. S. Hispanic conservative movement is surging. Even without Trump. It looks to me to be a book outlining my right about that. I don't know about that yet. I have to really think about that. Um, but you know, I paid attention to this group. Actually beginning was Rick Scott in Florida. Now, you know there's a lot of media and a lot of Democrats will dismiss Florida. Because they said, Oh, Cuba, Cuban voters, But the fact is, um, um Scott games, um, Hispanic voters from a bunch of different countries of origin. And it was just this nest or not paid attention to so during the election of 2020. Was something that was really on my mind when I was out there interviewing people. And I think what's really fascinating and this really got dismissed again or not paid attention to because the president didn't win and because they walked Colorado with Arizona. I was really talking about some just monumental gain that Republicans received among, um Hispanic voters. In fact, A former senator Cory Gardner got more Hispanic vote than suburban white vote. It's pretty remarkable. And I will tell you the back story for me. My son, who was in the Trump administration at the EPA left and went to work for a Florida congressman by the name of Michael Waltz, So I've started to follow Florida politics. He sends me stuff. And you're right. It's not Cubans and Puerto Ricans. It's actually every sort of Hispanic you can imagine Mexican Americans in Venezuelan Americans and Guatemalan American, Florida is genuinely a melting pot. It really It really is. It's on real issues. It's a bread and butter issues. This doesn't have anything to do with grace. But has a lot to do with the immigrant immigrant experience which many of us descended from like I did. My my grand parents came here. Um, um, um from from Italy. And these were things that were you know of things like a job creation. Faith, religious freedom. Um, you know, those things are incredibly important that also Things like, you know, that is the Democrats in their messaging, Campion's or allows things to be champion that were large, oppressive government issues like change of changing things that have been part of our fabric like I don't know. Happening the court or, you know it's things like that, whether I had lunch with two major Republican Party activists in California last week. Who are optimistic about the California Republican Party's new appeal to Hispanics, based upon an anti lock down mentality among Latinos who work and work and work and do not want to be stopped from working. Yes, that's absolutely true. There's set aspirational seeing that that's hard to put into words. But is a part of just it doesn't no matter how you have been in this country, whether your family's been here for generations or your family's been here for two weeks. Oh, I loved your portrait of the Ascender Moyes's Sanchez and you've got these categories. That's why I thought of the great revolt. You've got the assimilate er the Ascender, the rebel the Doubter. I just I see a book here and the Ascender is the one I think that the Republicans have got to grab onto Yeah, absolutely. There's so much potential, and what's really interesting is that it's come to the these voters have come to the Republican Party organically. It's like the white working class and the former blue collar Democrats who came to the party organically being canning into 2010 with those mid terms. But, Selina, you just confused your Pittsburgh people. They think that means that they eat vegetarian. When you say organically, That's you've just confuse the heck out him. By the way, is Big Ben going to retire like Aaron Rodgers from Green Bay. I don't know. I don't know if you think he's gonna have one have one more in camp because of the way that the season ended. This means being beaten by the Browns. Yeah, he's not. That's my theory. He's not gonna let his last game be a loss to the Browns. That's my theory. Selina.

"Now on Colorado's Morning News. The new Congress is getting set for the first session of 2021, the first major piece of business will be counting the electoral college votes to confirm President elect Joe Biden's victory in the November election. The new session also is the first for Colorado's newest senator, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper. And he's on her live line. Hello and welcome back, Mr Senator. Anybody. How are you doing very well. So you were sworn in in the ceremony over the weekend was that kind of surreal? It was a little surreal. You worked so hard for so long on a campaign. And then in one moment, you go from the old world into a completely different world. Yeah, and I imagine during a pandemic. It's even more bizarre and more surreal as outgoing Senator Cory Gardner or Senator Michael Bennet been helpful in this transition, or is that also tough because you're not really supposed to be congregating with anybody but mostly by zooms, but both of them have been very supportive. We had a problem that there was inadvertent mistake that came out of homeland security that a regulation that was gonna really negatively affect one of Colorado's larger companies. On Dave. The CEO had called me and so I called Michael Bennett. I called Cory Gardner. Cory Gardner dropped everything and went to work on it. So did Michael Bennett. I mean, that's the way that's the way the Senate is supposed to work. Not the way we're seeing right now, where people making decisions based on their own political gain on a short term basis. Well, senator seems like things work like that in Colorado. Seems like there's always been kind of reaching across the aisle to navigate here. And obviously, when you were governor that seemed like that happened a lot as well. Do you anticipate in the current atmosphere, and it really only been there a short time? But do you see that being possible in this current atmosphere to have collegial abilities to work and get things done with people that you don't always agree with? I I You know, I think it could happen. I mean, people tell me that I'm naive about this, but I do believe we can get past the blockade that this partisanship that's getting in the way of everything. I mean, we've got to go to bat for restaurants, not just across Colorado but across the country, and they need to be able to restart. They need toe, not alone, but they gotta be able to Most of my own money to their vendors, and you know where they buy their food. They don't owe money to the landlords. They can't restart their business with all that debt, so it can't be alone That can't be strings. It's It's got to just go to independent restaurants. But You know, they need to be had a chance to reopen and not be saddled with debt. And Republicans and Democrats should all have an alignment on that. You've seen the polls. I'm sure as we have about you know how People hate members of Congress has got like 30% approval rating. It's almost as bad as journalists, probably. But how do you How do you navigate that? How do you keep 1 ft in Washington and at least 1 ft in Colorado at the same time, and do the bidding of what your people from Colorado want you to do when you're in D. C. Well, I think the key here is to keep both feet in Colorado and We're playing on doing lots of town hall meetings. Will, you know be zoom at first, at least once a quarter and hopefully more. I mean, I want to meet with restaurant owners all over the state, and I want to hear Differences in different parts of the state and make sure that we don't miss. You know smaller issues that but still affect a significant number of restaurants or, you know, barber shops or hair salons. Or, you know any of these small businesses that I don't think have had sufficient representation in the Senate s. So what I'm hearing you're saying is that seems like that's gonna be one of your top priorities is Whether I guess that comes in the form of some form of stimulus or relief. Is that something that you think your other colleagues will pick up and run with, especially when there's been a change in administration. Whether it's $2000, however, you want to name it, but is that the first thing that that needs to get done is getting money into businesses and people's hands to help them and help the economy? Yeah, I think that it's part of it, and it's got to be a A comprehensive plans got start from the top. I think that's one of the things that You know, I'm trying to avoid getting into big discussions of the Trump Administration, but they often give contradictory instructions so that so that different states. Weren't sure exactly what the best practice was what they should be doing this. You know, the vaccination thing is a classic case. The the federal government should reach out to all the states and say, all right, here's how fast would get you the vaccine, and here's a great way. This is the best practice of how You need to distribute these vaccines and really ramp up and make America ze most successful country on Earth in getting vaccines to people in getting people inoculated and You're not going to force you to do that. But we think if you follow these practices, you'll do great. And unfortunately, federal government The last couple years has been kind of pitting once that one state against another and and creating this competition. That really isn't healthy. It isn't productive Competition works in the you know, free market. To a large extent, because there's such a clear alignment of interest. Everybody's trying to make a profit, but things like this where states end up bidding against each other for ventilators or protective equipment. It's counterproductive.

The "inverted yield curve" sparks recession fears
"But first we got to talk about the economy so we started to see the beginnings of the signs for recession now inverted yield curve that everybody is talking about which suggests that short term rates on the bonds are no higher than longer term yields a Denver yield curve proceeds recessions generally but those recessions can still be up to a couple of years off SO trying to suggest that the recession is right around the corner is probably incorrect with that said there's still a lot of fear about the future of the economy when the shorter term rates are higher than longer term bond yields then that generally expressed as a lot of uncertainty about the near term future people in other words are more sanguine about the possibility of long term growth than they are about the possibility of short term growth and that is why it's scaring people now president trump is sounding off about it he is suggesting that this is simply because the fed hasn't inflated currency enough there has been of quantitative quantitative easing he tweeted out we are winning big time against China companies and jobs are fleeing prices to us of not going up and in some cases have come down China is not our problem the Hong Kong is not helping our problem is with the fed raise it to much into fast is in terms of interest rates now too slow to cut spread is way too much as other countries say thank you to clueless J. pal and the federal reserve Germany and many others are playing the game crazy inverted yield curve all capitalized with an exclamation point we can easily be reaping the rewards and gains but the fed is holding us back we will win well it is it's sort of hard to suggest that the entirety of the global economy is resting on federal reserve policy when as we are seeing that they're a bunch of countries that are sliding into recessions and slower economic growth according to The Washington Post nine major economies around the world are in recession or on the verge of one raising fears that a global economic slowdown could help tip the United States into an economic contraction as well the ugly stock market drop on Wednesday began after bad news from two of the world's largest economies China reported the worst manufacturing output in seventeen years Germany said that its economy actually shrank in the spring well that would be the reason for a lot of the global recession talk now because the US economy is slowing down dramatically consumption is still high in the United States but there are a lot of other countries that are experiencing negative growth including Germany which really is the economic driver over in Europe many of the country slowing down or a recession and a common problem they're heavily dependent on selling goods overseas this is not a great time to have an export driven economy China slump and from trade war are both under cutting the global exchange of goods that help power the global economy for decades some of these countries are seeing sharp declines in exports also their problems that in in countries that have systemic problem so for example Argentina and Russia are both having serious currency issues and that is exacerbating trouble people are fleeing to gold and government bonds of course and that is why you are seeing that inverted yield curve people are fleeing to get involved in the bond market and that stealing all the outcomes well what exactly could stop all of this presumably if the trade war were to come to an end well the problem is right now is actually kind of a good time for a trade war because the fact is that the Chinese government has become more more aggressive trump isn't wrong to want some sort of competition with China or to see them as competitors in a zero sum game economics is not a zero sum game a global power is a zero sum game and economics as an aspect of global power is obviously crucial and Kate is one of the reasons why president trump has invoked a national security when you talk about terrace on China and you should be talking about that right now but he's sort of sending mixed signals about the linkage between trade for example and terrorists it's it's the link between trade and and the situation in Hong Kong it's become kind of bizarre so for example trump just said that president she's in pain should meet with the protesters is that a president she would meet directly and personally with the protesters there be a happy and latent ending to the Hong Kong problem I have no doubt which is very upbeat tweet from trump that post came one day after trump tweeted yet zero doubt that she could quickly and humanely solve the Hong Kong problem there are multiple reports that trump had actually reached out to sea and promised him that he would not interfere in the ongoing dispute between the people of Hong Kong and the Chinese government the Chinese government is preparing some sort of action they began massing a paramilitary force in the nearby southern city of Shenzhen prompting US lawmakers of both parties warned Beijing against violently cracking down on the protests senator Cory Gardner of of Colorado Republicans as the administration must make clear to Beijing any crackdown in Hong Kong will have profound consequences for China including imposition of US sanctions which was included in my amendment that passed the Senate as part of the national defense authorization act up is a really dicey period and China is not looking like they're going to back down here they continue to propagandize to their own youth The Washington Post reporting that the youth of China very angry at Hong Kong because of all the propaganda being put out by the Chinese media at this point Washington post as are they angry units are the useless use that's the debate on China's answer to Twitter this week as young Chinese pile score on their peers in Hong Kong we've been protesting for eleven straight weeks to avoid the kinds of restrictions of the control mainlanders did the motherland give you too much freedom one woman using the name very bad band wrote mockingly and a popular web post away though I hope these angry youths in Hong Kong realized their father is always your father well the fact is that the the sorts of policies pushed by the Chinese were explicitly barred by the deal done with the British when the British abandon Hong Kong in the late nineties when the way was a mistake the fact is the western presence in South Korea is what prevented from becoming at North Korea the fact is it was western presence in Hong Kong that prevented Hong Kong from simply come in China for all the talk about colonialism imperialism which were unjustified in their original origins the fact is that western presence in non western countries very often has meant more freedom for those countries than American abandonment of those countries just ask the people of Vietnam as the people of North Korea there's a there's a reason the Hong Kong protestors are waiting at the American flag he deeply negative view that is often pervade about American our role in the world that America imposes its belief that America is nasty and cruel that America is responsible for all the deprivations in the world a B. why is the fact that we're America's footprint shrinks freedom also shrinks where America's footprint grows historically freedom also grows whether you're talking about the American footprint in Iraq and the abandonment of rock in two thousand eleven leading to the right of ice rise of ISIS or whether you're talking about the American abandonment of Vietnam or whether you're talking about the British abandonment of Hong Kong the fact is that it was in the attempt to grab up gobble up territory and use it for your own devices was initiated horribly wrongly never should have been done but the abandonment of those countries has not exactly been a boon for a huge number of those countries as it turns out a lot of the countries that were victims of imperialism I still more free than surrounding countries that were never victims of imperialism histories complex that way just because something was evil and unjustified its origins doesn't mean that the complete and final effects of that activity end up being worse for the people who live now again it doesn't justify the original action but the fact is that Hong Kong would be better off right now under British auspices in Chinese auspices it was a mistake for the British to abandon Hong Kong to the Chinese the fact that so many people in the west are focused on the flaws of the west rather than acknowledging that the world is a complex and dangerous place is actually quite dangerous
