Joe Biden's Tougher Stance?

| That the United States has to demand more from China. | |
| Even Hank Paulson, former Goldman Sachs CEO, is kind of Mr. China engagement. | |
| He has said that they have not lived up to their promises in terms of the trade relationship. | |
| They've done very little, if anything, to stop the theft of American invention. | |
| So I think you would hope that perhaps for political reasons, the Joe Biden you get post-Trump might be tougher than the Joe Biden you got as vice president. | |
| And look, if this is a competition, the Trump economic policy has put the U.S. in a pretty good position here. | |
| I know Biden is kind of talking now as if... | |
| There's sort of this huge disaster that he will face when he comes into office and that we will need some massive government interventions to rescue the economy. | |
| The fact is the table is set for a really strong rebound next year, especially with this amazing Operation Warp Speed triumph with the vaccines now rolling out something on the order of 8 million doses distributed this week. | |
| The United States, I think, thanks in large part to Donald Trump, is going to be in pretty good shape as Joe Biden takes over. | |
| Right, but Joe Biden just announced that our darkest hours are ahead. | |
| Yeah, it's odd because he took the vaccine on Monday, which shows that much of what he said during the campaign was wrong, that Donald Trump did oversee a safe and quick vaccine approval. | |
| He should understand, and therefore change his rhetoric as well, that the vulnerable population is going to be inoculated largely over the next several weeks. | |
| Much of this work is going to be done by the time he's taking the oath of office. | |
| So there is not a crisis, and he can thank Donald Trump for that in terms of there's not a great need for government intervention next year. | |
