| Hi, this is Dr. | |
| Bachini. | |
| Today I want to try to explain what I think is going on both in the United States and around the world. | |
| For the most part, I think this coronavirus epidemic or pandemic has been started by China and is part of what I would consider a biological warfare or psychological warfare that's been going on with China for the past couple of years. | |
| But I'll get into that in a few seconds. | |
| The first thing that's important to realize is that Trump has done an amazing job. | |
| He's tried to calm all the governors. | |
| He's provided all the finances required for our states and individual businesses. | |
| He understands that the small businesses, 30 million of them, need cash. | |
| And he brought in Mnuchin, who's done an excellent job, and several other people in his community, as well as Mike Pence, who's really taken over and showed his mettle. | |
| The most important part of this is really the war with China. | |
| And why do I bring it up? | |
| The tip-off to me was the presence of a young woman who was ostensibly working for Pluto newspapers or some front for the Chinese Communist Party that he picked up right away. | |
| Trump said, you're part of mainland China. | |
| She lied, and part of China is lying all the time. | |
| And what is the issue that's really coming up with China? | |
| When I first wrote about war with China, that was 30 years ago, and it was in a book called Blood Heat and Pax Pacifica. | |
| But 10 years ago, there was a far more serious problem. | |
| In 2013, President Xi came to power. | |
| He came in as a communist. | |
| He eliminated any capability to vote for a new president or a new committee. | |
| He in turn brought in all of his cronies. | |
| But what happened in the meantime is he created an economic engine that was destroyed by Trump. | |
| What do I mean? | |
| The growth rate in China was 6%, or at least he claimed it was 6%. | |
| In turn, he created all the manufacturing supply systems for the United States and the world. | |
| So he had what was called one belt, one road. | |
| It included about 120 countries that would be beholden to China. | |
| But what happened was Trump interfered with that economic plan. | |
| He basically said to Xi, look, either you work with me or you work against me. | |
| And he said it to the reporter yesterday. | |
| He said, either you're going to have an agreement with me or not. | |
| That was a warning to Xi because he knows Xi is very weak. | |
| For the past year and a half, I've been saying on this show that I think Xi has been taken over or he is about to lose his position as the chief of the Communist Party and the head of China. | |
| And the reason I say that is several fold. | |
| Number one, he never had a strong hold on China. | |
| Number two, all of his cronies came out of a specific group. | |
| Number three, the Uyghurs who are basically Muslim Chinese are in the military and the police and they have no loyalty to the Communist Party. | |
| Number four, the Deng Xiaoping family, including the boy who was in the wheelchair, is far more powerful and they're looking to take over the power from Xi. | |
| In turn, Xi allowed... | |
| The virus to come in either from Italy or allowed it to come from Wuhan to Italy. | |
| The point of fact is that there were over 300 to 500 Chinese laborers in Italy that controlled both the factories and the banks. | |
| In turn, they came back to China in January for their holiday in the new year. | |
| I in turn got sick from a Chinese student who was sent over here Unintentionally, and I got the coronavirus pneumonia. | |
| I said that in January. | |
| In turn, what happened is that more and more Chinese had come in here as students, as visitors, and they used the organization called the Confucius Society to permeate the communist ideology. | |
| Then what happened is Trump, within a month or two months, began to realize that, in fact, We had to stop the Chinese aggression because there are two elements that make the Chinese aggression powerful. | |
| First, it's the Middle Kingdom complex, which means that for centuries China has felt, irrespective of its ideology, that it's entitled to be a world power. | |
| The second imperative is called Thucydides' ideology, Thucydides' trap. | |
| Now, Thucydides was an Athenian historian who said 5,000 years ago the following, that in order for a superpower to be taken over, a rising power has to basically threaten that superpower. | |
| That's called the Thucydides' trap. | |
| It's a very big tongue twister, but it's in fact very accurate. | |
| China was a rising power and it had to compete with America. | |
| In that process, China has been losing. | |
| Mao Zedong once said that power comes out from the guns. | |
| Trump has said that power really rises from economy, psychology, and the will to be great. | |
| On that note, I leave you good luck and good night. | |
| I forgot the book. |
