On a pivotal Thursday, April 10th, Steve Bannon delivered a powerful critique of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), aligning with President Trump’s decisive move of a 125% tariff on Chinese goods. The President also tactically paused tariffs on other nations, boosting the stock market.
During a compelling monologue on his War Room podcast, Bannon stated:
“The situation with China – this is not about reciprocity; this isn’t even about tariffs – that’s all part of it.
“This is about the world’s two great powers: one power that was totally created by the elites in the United States; that’s China.
“Our financial elites, our political elites, and our business elites, all worked in conjunction with the Chinese Communist Party, to take it from a backwards agricultural power, to a manufacturing superpower – on your tax dollars, and your pension funds, that shipped those jobs over there.”
You can watch Bannon’s rousing monologue below:
Bannon highlighted President Trump’s call to re-industrialize America, emphasizing the need for manufacturing jobs that can support families sustainably. “And in his efforts to re-industrialize this country, eventually you have to get to the hard nut of the problem: it’s the Chinese Communist Party,” Bannon asserted.
Championing the rights of Chinese citizens, Bannon has been on a mission to liberate them from the CCP’s oppressive grip. He proudly co-founded the New Federal State of China to aid the Chinese people in their quest for freedom.
“The Chinese people are fantastic. I’m very honored to be one of the co-founders of the New Federal State of China, that looks to work with [the Chinese people] to free themselves.
“I work with many others as, proudly, one of the leaders of the anti-CCP organizations throughout the world, because [the CCP] are a murderous dictatorship, every bit as bad as the Bolsheviks under Stalin, and the Nazis under Hitler. They’re just a brutal dictatorship,” Bannon said.
Bannon emphasized that simple trade talks are insufficient to solve the pressing threat posed by the CCP. He echoed reports from War Room co-host Natalie Winters and statements by former FBI Director Christopher Wray, highlighting the CCP’s deep infiltration in American society.
“I think when people talk about, ‘We want a meeting with them’ – there’s no one meeting that’s going to solve the problem. First off, as Natalie [Winters] has shown you over years of her investigative reporting here, [the CCP] are so embedded into our cultural life; into the universities – there’s 350,000 Chinese students right here paying full freight. Biden allowed tens of thousands of military-aged Chinese men into the country.
“[Former FBI director] Chris Wray said the number one problem we have is the CCP; they are embedded here into all of our infrastructure – the electrical grid, the communications systems, the highway systems, the transportation and logistics systems – they are embedded, either through software, or other means,” Bannon said.
With an alarming assessment at hand, Americans are waking up, rallying to reclaim sovereignty from the CCP. Bannon powerfully articulated the dire need for a strategic approach to the ongoing economic battle.
“We’ve been asleep for a long time. But folks in this country have said, ‘I don’t like what’s happening. I see too many businessmen rubbing up on the Chinese,’” Bannon said.
“This is global, it’s multi-dimensional – and one side is going to win, and one side is going to lose. We’ve got tremendous leverage and tremendous power in this. We have to smartly use that power, and bring this to a head,” Bannon said.
Finally, Bannon underscored his unwavering stance: Decoupling from the CCP is crucial, as their economic system is rooted in slave labor, perpetually undermining wages and human dignity.
“I’ve argued for years: decoupling. We can’t be a part of an economic system they’re part of, because their system is based upon slave labor. They’re always going to drive and crush wages – always, because [the Chinese people] are slaves, unfortunately, to a murderous dictatorship,” Bannon said.
The question remains: to what extent should President Trump take this trade war?
