It’s an hour, yes. But an interesting hour.
Sample quotes:
The Chinese look at us as a tributary state.The Chinese have a bureau of “Barbarian Management” and we are the Barbarians.
We send them natural resources, soybeans, beef, timber, Boeing airliners, and Apple computers..oh, not Airliners or Apple products. they forced them to make them in China… and they send us finished goods.
We’re Jamestown to their Great Britain.
What Donald Trump has done in less than two years is to reorient the global supply chain economy away from China.
All this happy talk about China needs to be questioned, verified, questioned, and verified again.

I haven’t watched this video (the ballgame is on, but I will get to it), but its funny that you would put this up today. It was just this morning that I watched another longish interview with Bannon regarding China I can recommend.

Trump is playing China several levels above what most of the public give him credit for.
Yes, it is an interesting hour, and I echo your recommendation of it.
Steve Bannon is one smart mo-fo. I don’t remember why he left the administration, but it is our loss that he did.
azlibertarian,
In his memoirs Ronald Reagan wrote about General Alexander Haig, his Secretary of State. He said (pp) “The trouble with Al Haig is that he kept forgetting who the president was”.
Some men, often very talented, have trouble taking “no” for an answer. I suspect that was the case for Bannon along with Tillerson and Mattis.
Lots of good information here. Had to watch it in bite size pieces. Then watched it again. Now I better understand our national industrial and economic decline over the last 30 years. Hopefully we’ll wake up in time to correct past mistakes.
