It's Time To Fight Back Against China!

Kevin, are you a tariff man? I am actually in the case of China. I don't like tariffs generally, but China, we're in an economic war with. There's 100% that that's the case. They don't play by a level playing field. I do business there, so this is not an academic study I'm talking about. I've been screwed by the Chinese now for 20 years. I'm just one investor, one player there. They don't allow you to use their IP and protect your IP there.

But I'll make a point about one situation that every American knows. Everybody loves TikTok, right? We've declared it Chinese spyware in Congress. January 19th, midnight, it has to be shut down. The supreme leader himself is using our court system to sue us in the United States to stop that from happening. Do you think I can do that in China? No.

So what I suggest, and listen, this is just for China, I'd like to raise tariffs beyond what Trump is talking about. I'd like to go blow torch heat on them for 100% on everything, bring them to their knees in 48 hours. The supreme leader will be here in America saying, "Just kidding about this, let's work it out," because we can't do the same thing that they're doing to us. I can't use their laws to protect my IP, and frankly, I think we should settle this now. We are in an economic war with them. Why don't we just admit it? We tried for so many administrations, for 40 years to make peace and say, "Let's give them democracy, they'll be okay with us." They are screwing us.
