he feared he had created a frankenstein by opening the world to the ccp. and here we are. to happen for all these years. perhaps we were naÏve about the communism or triumphant after our victory in the cold war, or hoodwinked by their talk of the rise. whatever the reason, today china is increasingly authoritarian at home and with hostility to freedom everywhere else. president trump has said enough. i don't think many people on either side of the isle dispute the fac facts that i've laid out today but even now some are insisting we preserve the model of dialogue. we will keep on talking. i traveled to honolulu a few weeks back to meet. it was the same old story. plenty of words, but literally no offer to change any of the behaviors. the promise is like so many of the ccp made before him were empty. his expectations, i summarize, is i caved t cave to their demas because frankly this is what too many prior administrations have done. i didn't, and president trumpcop will not either. as the ambassador explained, zero well. we have to keep in mind the ccp regime is a marxist,

sometimes it seems like trump is a frankenstein but made up of only the worst parts of all previous presidents know he has the pandemic response of woodrow wilson, the racism of andrew jackson. the horniness of bill clinton, the vocabulary of george w. bush and stuffed into taft's body. the lack of leadership created a vacuum in 118 that allowed misinformation and dangerous cures to be spread as fast as the virus. >> as the coronavirus virus is spreading worldwide, the misinformation is spreading too. >> president trump is spreading the conspiracy the virus was begun in china. >> they blamed the germans, saying beyer, a german owned company infected their as prison. >> the president offers snake oil treatments -- >> the president suggested americans can ingest themselves with disinfect tons ward off covid 19. >> the disinfectant knocks it out in a minute. >> snake oil sailsmen had a field day. >> vick's said it stimulated the mucus membrane to throw off the germs. >> flenlty of ads touting medicines, tablets, the use of disinfectants. >> trevor: people back in the day were so dumb, they though

>> abby normal from young frankenstein. >> you had covid also.on't want people to go through what we went through. let me get a take on this from both of you guys before we go. >> the president is talking up this crazy dr. now. why doesn't he talk about it all the time, and commission a study to vet it so he can put it out there. why doesn't he operationalize his interest. why doesn't he own a plan and a strategy here the way you would and you would, if it were in your wheelhouse. >> well, i mean, i can't explain it other than this. we have now breached 150,000 deaths. had we from the beginning not called it a hoax -- had we said we're going to wear masks, we're going to socially distance. we're going to wash our hands and we're all going to do it. where would we be today if we had been that aggressive. that's the tragedy, how many people have been affected. what happens later to the organs, were they damaged. there's so many missed opportunities here to get it right, it's why the voters in this country now are turning away from him. those who we

gordon: president nixon said thy be creating frankenstein. i think he's right.e've ignored very dangerous, belligerent, hostile activities on the part of beijing. we have issued warnings which we haven't carried through on as we talked about before. all of this and we empowered this militant regime in beijing and the important point about pompeo's speech and other senior administration officials including the vice president going back to 2018 is essentially we are saying enough is enough, there's no more engagement. this is sort of like the long telegram of 1946 and 1947 where they changed paradigm on soviet union. pence and secretary pompeo and other officials are changing the paradigm this time on china. eric: it appears that china now is the challenge for 21st century. gordon chang, good to see you. in 3:00 o'clock eastern hour, we will have chris cox, president nixon's grandson to talk about his grandfather's legacy and what china is up to today. arthel: congressman john lewis made final triumphant trip over edmund pettus bridge and now on trip to montgomery

president nixon once said he feared he had created a frankenstein by opening the world to the ccp, andijing's stock of a peaceful rise. china is increasingly more aggressive. donald trump has said enough. i don't think many people on either side of the aisle dispute that but even now some insist we preserve the model of dialogue for dialogue's sake. we will keep talking but the conversations are different these days. i travel to honolulu a few weeks back, it was the same old story. plenty of words but literally no offer to change any of the behaviors. promises like so many were empty. his expectations i summarize caved to their demands because this is what too many prior administrations have done. i didn't and donald trump won't either. we have to keep in mind the ccp regime is a marxist leninist regime. xi jinping believes in the bankrupt totalitarian theology, it forms his decade-long desire for global hegemony of chinese -- we cannot ignore the differences between our country is just as the ccp has never ignored them. my experience in the house intelligence committee and two plus ye

. >> in the book you compare president trump to frankenstein's monster and frankerenstein is in a certaint degree is the president a victim as well as a vil an? >> i think if we look simply at what he experienced as a child, we should have a great deal of compassion for what that child experienced, witnessed and suffered. however that having been said, donald is an adult human being who understands the difference between right and wrong. he doesn't think that the rules apply to them but he understands them. and that we don't need to have compassion for and it certainly doesn't mean that we don't have to hold him accountable. >> the financial records from your grandfather's estate it was an in-depth series of articles, new york times which if i'm not mistaken won the pulitzer prize, why did you give them those, what did you think the public had the right to know? >> the main reason i did, initially was because suzanne craig, investigative journalist extraordinary was so persistent and was able to convey to me that i actually had information that could help in a concrete way. which i didn't

president nixon once said, he feared that he created a frankenstein by opening the world to the ccp. here we are. >> the speech disregard the facts and confuse the right and wrong. the relationship between beijing and washington has soured in recent years. >> president trump, he's a friend of mine, but he likes china, i like the usa. >> earlier this month, u.s. navy aircraft carriers sailed together in the south china sea is to send a message to beijing. >> we won't be stopped by anybody. >> record-setting six months at sea without a port call, it's finally heading home. bret. >> bret: lucas, thank you. stocks down as tensions flare again between the u.s. and china and the dow lost 182 did an s&p 500 fell 20 in the nasdaq dropped to 98. for the week, down down three quarters of percentage point and s&p 500 finished up a corridor and the nasdaq lost one and a third. we look at colleges are dealing with classes as schools or zoom in the coming weeks. around the country, fox 26 in houston national hurricane center says tropical storm fay hanna in strengthening and is expected to become

president nixon once said he feared he had created a frankenstein by opening the world to the ccp.le of good faith can debate why free nations allowed these bad things to happen for all these years. perhaps we were naive about china's communism, or triumphal after victory in the cold war. or hoodwinked beijing stock of a peaceful rise. whatever the reason. whatever the reason today, china is increasing and north or therrien -- more aggressive and hostile to freedom everywhere else. president trump has said, enough! i don't think many people on either side of the aisle of dispute, the facts that i have laid out today, but even now summer insisting that we preserve the model of dialog, for dialog's sake. to be clear, we will keep on talking, but the conversations are different these days. i traveled to honolulu just a few weeks back. to meet with -- it was the same old story. plenty of words, but literally no effort to change any of the behaviors. the promises such as the ccp made before him were empty. his expectations i surmise is to cave to the demands. this is what too many prior

do you remember that from "young frankenstein?" you had covid also, charlie.don't want people to go through what we went through. let me get a take on this from both of you guys before we go. the president is talking up this crazy doctor now, because he believes in hydroxychloroquine. but john, if he believed in the drug, why doesn't he talk about it all the time and commission a study to vet it so that he can put it out there? why doesn't he operationalize his interest? and why doesn't he own a plan and a strategy here the way you would and charlie, you would, if it were in your wheelhouse? >> well, i mean, i can't explain it other than this, chris -- we have now breached 150,000 deaths. so, the question is, had we, from the beginning, not called it a hoax, had we, from the beginning, said, we're going to wear masks, we're going to socially distance, we're going to wash our hands and we're all going to do it, where would we be today if we had been that aggressive? and that's the tragedy. and how many people have been affected? and you're right about the fact

the guy is frankenstein if he was spraying for weeds "crabgrass, bad!ed than the sycophantic dear-leader praise of the president's golf game is the fact that a u.s. senator chose to spend his time tweeting about this and not, say, a plea to his constituents and fellow conservatives to wear masks. especially since his colleague ted cruz apparently refused to wear one on a flight man, you'd think ted cruz would at least want to wear a mask so no one would see that his beard makes him look like an out-of-work hedgehog i'm sorry, but not wearing a mask is now officially the [ bleep thing you can do on a flight and i am including wearing open-toed sandals. you foot freaks are off the hook until this pandemic is over. this is the conservative movement of donald trump, a movement that rejects science empathy in favor of dumb culture war grievances like statues and "cancel culture. as a highly infectious deadly disease spreads like wildfire the supposedly pro-life party has abandoned you. scared of getting sick the white house says, "too bad, 'we need to live w
