US President Donald Trump issued a shocking warning, claiming he holds 'incredible cards' that could 'destroy' China if needed. His remarks come amid intensifying US-China tensions over trade, technology, and global dominance. Trump did not clarify what those 'cards' were, sparking worldwide speculation.
00:00They have some cards. We have incredible cards, but I don't want to play those cards.
00:04If I played those cards, that would destroy China. I'm not going to play those cards.
00:08I'm meeting a lot of people. I mean, it's hard to say that, but I'd like to meet them this year.
00:15President Xi would like me to come to China. It's a very important relationship.
00:20As you know, we're taking a lot of money in from China because of the tariffs and different things.
00:25And it's a very important relationship. We're going to get along good with China.
00:30I hear so many stories about we're not going to allow their students.
00:33We're going to allow their students to come in. We're going to allow.
00:36It's very important. 600,000 students. It's very important.
00:39But we're going to get along with China. But it's a different relationship that we have now with China.
00:44It's a much better relationship economically than it was before with Biden.
00:49What he allowed that. I mean, they just took him to the cleaners.
00:52You know the expression? They took him to the cleaners. I'm sure they have an equal expression in South Korea.
00:58But they took that guy out for a ride like nobody's ever been ridden before. Terrible.
01:04But we have a very strong relationship, Howard. I would say economically with China now getting much better.
01:11They have to give us magnets. If they don't give us magnets, then we have to charge them 200% tariff or something.
01:18You know, but we're not going to have a problem, I don't think, with that. We've I think that's perhaps behind us.
01:24You know, China intelligently went and they sort of took a monopoly of the world's magnets and nobody needed magnets until they convinced everybody 20 years ago.
01:33Let's all do magnets. There were many other ways that the world could have done.
01:36But so far, it'll take us probably a year to have them. We're heavy into the world of magnets now, only from a national security standpoint.
01:45But but we have a powerful thing. It's airplane parts of many Boeing jets.
01:51You know, they had 200 jets that didn't fly. And I've sent them all based on his word.
01:57I sent them all of the parts so their planes can fly. I could have held them back.
02:03I didn't do that because of the relationship I have. And they're flying. Their planes are now flying.
02:08You know, we had 200 of their planes were unable to fly because we were not giving them Boeing parts purposely because they weren't giving us magnets.
02:17Therefore, we weren't giving them. But we have a much more powerful thing. That's tariffs.
02:21So if we if we want to put 100 percent, 200 percent tariffs on, we wouldn't do any business with China.
02:27And, you know, it would be OK, too, if we had to. But the magnet situation, we have tremendous power over them and they have some power over us with magnets.
02:36We're going to have a lot of magnets in a pretty short period of time.
02:40In fact, we have so many, we won't know what to do with them. But, you know, the story, it's a very interesting history with magnets.
02:46And it really is because presidents not being business people, they allowed that to happen and they shouldn't have.
02:54But we have much more. I mean, look, in terms of playing the cards, we have we have much bigger and better cards than they do.
03:01But with that being said, I think we have a great relationship. I spoke to President Xi fairly recently and at some point, probably during this year or shortly thereafter, we'll go to China.
03:11And I think we're going to see a magnificent sight. It's a great country.
03:15Mr. Jackson, you and President Li actually are planning to go to China. You mentioned either this year or next year.
03:22Could you please share more details about your plans going to China and also President Li?
03:27Maybe we'll go together. You want to go together? We can share a plan. We'll save energy. We'll save a little, you know, the ozone layer.
03:37Remember, President Obama used to talk about the ozone layer and then he'd fly to Hawaii to play around the golf at the 747.
03:45Mr. President, I'm trying to ask for the invitation, Mr.
03:49Mr. President, I would like to go together, Mr. President, I would like to go together, Mr. President.
04:01Mr. President, do I accept? He doesn't accept? If you want to go, I'm going to get special permission. I'm sure you can go, but we're going to have a great relationship with China.
04:11I mean, it's happening. You see it. It's happening. They have some cards. We have incredible cards, but I don't want to play those cards.
04:20If I played those cards, that would destroy China.
