Time Text
This is our erstwhile enemy, the Chinese Communist Party, not the Chinese people.
My wife and I have adopted a Chinese daughter.
She's a wonderful lady.
The Chinese people are wonderful people.
It's not the Chinese people.
It's the Chinese Communist Party.
They are our erstwhile enemy.
They have organized a group of dictators against the United States, and we need to go at them like they're going at us.
And one of the key ways we could do it would be to support religious freedom amongst the people in China.
Support the Tibetan Buddhists.
Support the Muslim Uyghurs.
Support the Christians that are in prison.
Ask for their release.
Support the Falun Gong practitioners and their ability and publicly do so in the White House, in the Congress, in venues that we have here.
It will drive the Chinese Communists nuts.
Crazy, because now you're talking about hundreds of millions of Chinese in country, now, in their country now, that somebody's actually speaking out for if this is the way they're treating their own people.
And this word gets out.
I think it's one of the most powerful tools we actually have in our confrontation with the Chinese Communist Party today.
And you say it'll drive them nuts, but some people in the national security and diplomatic establishments say driving them nuts prevents us from being able to negotiate with them.
How would you respond to that?
You don't negotiate with evil.
You kick it out.
In the Soviet era, when we were détente, and well, we'll exist, they'll exist, everything will be fine.
And that bumped along for a couple of decades.
And Ronald Reagan comes in and he says, this is an evil system.
You don't tolerate evil.
You confront it and you defeat it.
There's not a coexistence with evil.
