What America needed to get from the Trump-Xi summit

0:00It's the tip of the spare in the epic battle to defend the United States of America. The National Security Hour exposes the wolves and sheep clothing and then a various plots to undermine and destroy US nationalist security. Good evening, America. I am Fred Gellman, your host of the one October 2026 National Security Hour. And today we are going to discuss the culmination of the summit we had last week in Washington, the US and the people of China as these two superpowers, but they are leaders President Trump and President Xi.

1:02Had a very powerful meeting, one which is necessary and we need to continue this cadence as well as moving forward with tangible results, not just having another meeting, but the fact that we have had three meetings during the 47th term of President Trump has been very, very good because if you think we have a situation with war in Iran, it would be monumentally absolutely indescribably worse if things which they could, if we sensed or we displayed weakness in any one of these areas with militarily, especially if we don't balance things right with our military strength and we could possibly signal that there's gaps and seams across

2:07North East Asia, coming President Xi, exploit that, you bet. And that's what we're going to talk today. We're going to talk about our military, we're going to talk about what sustains our military and global security and that is ships, chips and critical leverage that both countries we depend on each other and instead of trying to attack each other's strong points, we need to focus on cooperation that is such a key thing to do right now. And let's just focus on what has happened, as I just mentioned, President Xi, he's now obviously departed at an effort-nice summit, a little tour of the National Archives. I don't know if he ate it, the lucky Chinese restaurant there in Washington, D.C. or not, but explain his back in Beijing where he and his team are going back to work and we'll

3:14see what becomes of this consequential meeting from both sides. And I'm going to tell you some things that you're not going to hear in a lot of commentary because most of this coverage on the summit that has just occurred is very biased and opinionated, but for the next hour we're going to be able to talk about what happened from the symbolism of when President Xi landed there at a joint base, Andrews. And when you have just like a prior meeting between these two leaders, Analaska, where he had a massive display of U.S. military air power, we had a little less invasive demonstration of that with the B2 flyover and some F-22 raptors, which is awesome to see both of those. And it's very important.

4:20President Xi, he is a very smart and wise leader and then he has a staff of analysts that are analyzing every single thing. They're not just there taking pictures and seeing this out on the Chinese press, but they're analyzing everything that the United States does compared to what we did before. In Alaska, now you have a stealth bomber and some stealth fighters flying over. Obviously these have been used extensively in the war in Iran and China is very well aware of that. But there's also an optic in symbolism that President Trump, for the first time in 11 years, we've had a U.S. President actually agreed a foreign leader at the joint base, Andrews. There's just out east of Washington, D.C. That is very significant in showing that, hey, we want

5:24progress. I'm not just going to have a motorcade shuffle you to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I'm going to meet you when you land and to this massive military ban with the Marine Corps president's own ban and cannon blasting and this flyover. It was something for those of you who have seen gaudy displays in some of these countries to include China, how they roll out their military hardware and a demonstration and parades with power. That is what Trump did with more of pageantry than the military power because he really knows that the Chinese analysts, they're analyzing everything. They know our military power. They especially know our air power, which is superior to anyone else in the world and quantity and quality. But we wanted to get to the heart of what is really the issues that we're putting on the table. Let's enumerate those. Those

6:30are AI governance, first and foremost, that involves the security of anything high-tech, all of our secrets, all of our national economy depends on that we have governance over artificial intelligence. And that is something that's easier, much easier said than done. And also we needed to reach and to not reach an agreement. That's hopefully the end state. But one of the other objectives in this summit was the discussion on rare earth metals. Very, very critical and we'll talk about it later in the show because China basically has this hegemony of rare earth metals that control everything from a military or trade, all the parts of our high-tech. And that is what the art of the deal. We have a president that wrote that book. And it's so important that both need to understand that I want to walk away with more. But in order to

7:36do that, I have to be able to put something on the table and cooperate and work with them. So we need in the United States rare earth metals, desperately. President Xi and the People's Republic of China to compete and be at the forefront with whatever manufacturing militarily, they need the most advanced semiconductor chips. And President Xi and his cabinet, they know that. So rare earth metals, semiconductors, that is on the sea saw, and we need to reach the balance. And also on the table are issues involving national security. Specifically, Iran's nuclear program. And there's things with both of these world leaders that

8:38they need from the situation in the Middle East. The United States once a Iran that is denuclearized permanently, that it can never achieve that goal. And China is one of their main financiers, just like Iran is the financier of the majority of terrorism around the globe. The majority of customer for Iranian oil is Beijing. And so on both of this, Xi has a very well diversified energy supply, especially in the realm of oil, but it's tightening up. As oil is becoming scarce through the Gulf, as oil is not free-flowing to Beijing from Venezuela. And but they do have, as I said, wide diversity. So they're saying just like with rare earth and

9:45semiconductors, there's a given a take. And with Iran, both of these world leaders, there's a given a take with oil and nuclear power. And that is something that was not decided at this summit. But it's something that hopefully, we, time will tell, God only knows. But that we possibly could see China working together in cooperation with the United States even before the midterms to end this absurdity with Iranian trying to preserve their rights of a nuclear program. Hopefully, time will tell. And it's hard to use that word, hopefully. But it's a, that is a key thing. And that's why we have some of our sharpest minds in the United States, like Marco Rubio also at the summit,

10:50as our Secretary of State negotiating with his Chinese counterparts. We will, I'm sure, see this continue at the forefront before the election if we can reach a deal over their situation in Iran. Also, one of the goals of this summit was discussions on the biggest elephant in the room. And that is that the center of northeast Asia of Taiwan, just a hundred miles east of mainland China. China views this as their their right. They, they look at Taiwan as, as theirs. And obviously, the United States wants peace in Northeast Asia does not want to go to a crisis or a conflict in Taiwan. And these are the topics that were forefront. We're going to provide a clear-eyed assessment

11:54of all these topics. So it's time for us to roll up our sleeves, buckle our chin strap, put our mouthpiece in, and get in a three-point stance because it's kickoff time. And there has been a lot of media coverage following this summit. But as I mentioned, a lot of it is biased. A lot of it is saying that nothing really came out of this bilateral relationship, but time tells. And just like a year ago, almost a year ago, in Busan at that summit, that was a really focused primarily on rare earth metals. And this was to one thing that we did get out is to continue to extend that for another year, that agreement on rare earth metals. So

12:58America can have plans for re-industrializing and bringing manufacturing back to the United States. But still, we are dependent. One of our fatal flaws was allowing leaders to be conned by lawyers talking all this green new deal. That was a green old deal in the past, but to to tickle our ears and make us think that the right thing to do is to offshore all of our manufacturing, because we can't have all this pollution, like manufacturing and somebody else's backyard is acceptable. That's how they viewed it. That's the direction that we moved. And now we have the most advanced joint strike fighter in the world with F-35. But it depends on rare earth metals, which China has 91% of control over in the world. And we don't. So

13:59we have to push to bargain. And that's what was on the table. And we can't just go in there, playing hopscotch or checkers when China is sitting down for a very intense game of chess, which they from their perspective seek to checkmate the world, not just the United States, but they come from the lens that they have to win. And everybody else has to lose. So the central question is, will there be a cooperation between China and America and China in the rest of the world? Or is it just going to be China is the big panda? And that's they are the king of the jungle. So the, I believe an overall assessment. And before we go any further, is that

15:04this was key right before the midterms. Donald Trump is a leader that despite anyone's opinion about him and everybody has an opinion on him. But he is a leader that just like in his prior profession is a real estate developer and builder. He is going to attack problems with relentless zeal. And he's never going to give up. We never saw this type of optimpo and this type of laser focus on deals that benefit America, our national security, our citizens, and our prosperity. So I know there's, I listened to, I have to listen to all sorts of the news just to hear what other people are saying and to understand that there is, there's a lot of emotional manipulation going on and there's more hatred of people out there because they're being manipulated by information

16:11to just hate Donald Trump. But, and then, you know, I've listened to all this ridiculous, just like in a prior administration where they said, oh, Trump is a Russian agent. There's never any proof of that. But now there are people that are saying, oh, you know, the Trump family, you know, there's all these deals, look at what he's doing with these crypto currency and all this stuff's just making his family rich. Let me ask you one thing. Is three summits, three meetings between these two world leaders and just over a year and a half? Does that increase global security when we walk away with agenda items that people are actually working on agreements that were signed, just like there's rare earth and we're going to be able to continue to receive rare earth? What good does it have us as the United States have the best joint strike fighters without these rare earth metals

17:13because we can't continue. And it's important for us to have the strategic communication for Donald Trump and his cabinet to put that on the table so that the people's Republic of China, their cabinet have a full clear understanding that they depend on our high tech.

Under the name of diversity, politicians divide the people in their quest for power. No diversity, opinion and expression is as American as apple pie. Now is our time for my fellow Americans from America Out Loud.News, Liberty and Justice for all. Welcome back. This is your host, Fred Galvin. We were just talking about the takeaways and how Donald Trump author of the art of the deal needs to have his staff continue working with the scene

19:23that he set in the department of state when you're talking diplomacy. A lot of arrogant people there. I know I've had to work with them in the past, but there always have these scene centers, scene centers for these leaders in a paint the picture of what's going to happen. And why do I bring that up? Yes. Well, because there is a magic show in front of us. And that magic show last week, what I will say is a very successful state dinner. And I don't know what they had as far as dessert. That's not important, but I'll tell you this. What was the main course was America's competitiveness when we showed up to the table at a very high stakes event. And President Trump had his offensive line right there. And this is what America brings to the Super Bowl is our tech

20:28leaders. And as you saw, whether you're watching CBS or some other cable news network, it was it was a powerhouse lineup. This was the 1985 Chicago Bears with their star quarterback, McMahon leading the fight going downfield, talk about a centricary, McMahon and Trump, both of these leaders were there to score. And instead of Mike Singletary, Donald Trump had his main key player, Elon Musk, from Tesla and SpaceX, Adlyse Zoo from AMD, Jensen Huang from an Nvidia, Apple's executive chairman Tim Cook, Jeff Bezos was there, Google's Sunday or Pachai, and even the boarder directors of Goldman Sachs, John Rogers, as well as Qualcomm's Cristiano

21:28Iman. This was a a list lineup. Very hard to top the optics of what others have never done anything like that here, right after or seeing this scene said it, Andrew's Air Force base with the pageantry, the band, the flyover, two heads of state meeting there showing cooperation. I'm coming to you and you're coming to the United States. This is this is very good. And then we don't confront with Secretary of War, Hegseth, we have our lineup of corporations, of high tech. That is what China is dependent upon. China wants, they have their needs both militarily with their data centers and artificial intelligence. That is, that is the future. And that's what they're signaling here across the United States and the world, trying to put the fear of God into everybody that we

22:33can't have data centers. Data centers is the new manufacturing and they've just like they use lawyers in the past to block and impose cost and forces to offshore all of our manufacturers, almost all of our critical manufacturing and that brought us into the situation that we're in right now. Well, when you have that state dinner and you have all these Chinese sitting across from these the most powerful, the wealthiest CEOs in Silicon Valley and in the tech sector of Seattle and Northern California is amazing. And they're sitting down and showing that the United States is united. We have resolved. Here is the quarterback, McMahon. And he has Walter Payton to hand off, I mean, all these leaders are there. So you have the US government as well as you have US corporations.

23:38And some of these have been slapped on the hand and done bad things. But now we're standing in unity at a state dinner that the government is there showing accountability over these corporations that they're we're not going to cut these side deals. This president again, whether you have your opinions and those may be of something that hinge from derangement to dislike. Well, you have to admit that we've never sat down and whether you want to call it a chess match poker game. This is high stakes and showed this type of solid area, this type of power play with soft power. We're not coming in with a UFC fight on the front lawn of the White House. He did before, but that's different now we're entering the fall, the fall of this right before. And there's things that we want

24:39rare earth security in the Middle East, security in Northeast Asia. These are the top targets. And that's what we want to put that reticle of our rifle right on every single one of these targets and get our body aligned and our breath under control. And then just take those fundamentals as we carefully and slowly pull the slack out of that trigger and fire at each one of these. I believe this administration will reach success in following a very disciplined protocol. And that is what even before the summit, our United States Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had proposed this artificial intelligence safety mechanism that we have some kind of notification system. And you may say, well, that's kind of obvious, but we don't have it. And there are times

25:42in situations. This is day one AI governance issue. We are sitting here. This is the most simple, but it's the truth. It's hit right in front of our face. This is what we need is to have some type of a bilateral dialogue on these situations that are articulated as far as what if we have a significant incident involving national security. And we don't even have some kind of operational agreement. There's no 9-1-1 phone with somebody actually on the other side that knows what they're doing that they has authority to decide during an extremist situations. That's what we need. It's not just, let me just, it refrazes. There's a big distinction between AI competitiveness on one side and an AI risk reduction. So when something starts to go in a direction that we didn't expect,

26:45is we're dealing with some things that we don't always have complete control over with artificial intelligence. There's a lot that is unseen and unknown. We are literally just like Captain James Kirk, the Starship Enterprise. We are exploring the final frontier. I'm sure there's other frontiers in the future, but right now this is at the forefront and we don't know what's beyond in outer space, in the AI space. So we have to put some procedures in place and work together on this. And we did this a lot in the military when I was in making sure that when we have information sharing that there's somebody on the other side of that phone that is competent, that has the authority and that can act on behalf of an organization. And that's exactly what we needed

27:49in need right now. And that's what I talk about when we're talking about the very first steps, the day one of AI governance. There's a lot that we need to move forward. But making a statement like this that defines the dangerous behavior and we can verify what we're talking about as far as compliance that we want to make sure we control. And at the same time, you know, you have your whole team there, offense and defense that whole lineup of corporate executives like, well, if you don't want this, we can run off to the races. We will be able to find that other 9% of the world that can give us some rare earths. It's going to try up. It's going to be expensive, but we can go it alone. But if China wants to compete against the United States militarily and in manufacturing and

28:52high tech, they need our advanced chips. And we do have, we are the world's leader in AI chips and we sell more semiconductors China. And that is something that they clearly know. And they want more of. It's critical for their future. So this information exchange, developing these protocols, such as this hotline, that's, that is very useful for a first step. And that is something that our governments need to continue to agree and to move forward because their will, it's not if it's when there is some type of an AI emergency. And without some kind of agreement between our two societies on how this should be governed, you know, we're going to be lost. It's going to happen. And thank God it hasn't happened yet. So anyway, we have a lot of ground to cover and

30:00I really want to focus on next the situation in Iran. And there's been a lot of comments about how much China depends on Iran. And they don't really depend on them for oil, but it does have an impact. So China buys 90% of Iran's oil, but that's not 90% of China's oil. They're just their main customer, but that's dried up. And that does have an economic impact. And China has a huge interest in having that Iranian crude flow once again, especially if they want to continue to expand globally. It's almost a scene like we saw 84 years ago with Japan, you know, there's what led us to war with Japan was the US put sanctions on rubber and oil and steel. And as

31:01Japan was continuing to ratchet up their military and build, they we cut them off in the United States. We said, hey, no, you already started to push into Manchuria in 1930 and then 1937 into mainland China. And they were they were not playing nice without the people. And that's similar to the situation we see not exactly, but now we have instead of Japan, we have Iran acting up, but we also see China. They are they're doing some things that when you look at the ethnic wears in Western China and what they're doing there, and that's exhibit A as far as what they do to people who with the experiments and that's something we don't like to talk about that was not openly discussed in the summit, but I mean, that is directly akin to what happened in Dockhau

32:02and Auschwitz. This is this is something that is unsviledized in the modern world for a super power to round up a group of people in this case, Muslims, and put them into what is essentially concentration camps. And this should be highlighted. And I know Trump is trying to cooperate with China because we do not want to go to a crisis or a conflict and economic crisis or military conflict. These are things that we have to carefully diffuse because if you hear people in the media crying and complaining about the price of eggs and oil or the price of the pump, well, if something were to be disrupted with supply lines, maritime or overland supply lines in Northeast Asia, and likely it could extend much further than that into Southeast Asia, we would have skyrocketing

33:08inflation as well as not to mention the atrocities that would happen to likely. This is likely probability that it would spread out of Northeast Asia and into from Taiwan to the Philippines and many other countries going after those resources just like 84 years ago, Japan did not just on Pearl Harbor on June 7th or December 7th, sorry, but that same day on the other side of the international data line and then all the way through January, they just completely went and wiped out the Japanese did all these countries across the Pacific and then in January 42 into Singapore and Thailand and it just didn't stop. So a refocus again off of Japan and into China, but this summit, a key portion of that is

34:13that Iran is a significant source of energy for the Chinese economy. They need it, they want it back and what the United States is saying is, well, the ships that the Houthis are hitting and the ships that many of these Iranian missiles are going into, not just the ships, they're hitting Western allies across the Gulf states, they're hitting various ships, but they're not hitting Chinese flagships. Why is that? Well, it's because the Houthis and anybody that's on Tehran's payroll understands the difference that if you hit a Western flagship versus something flying, the people's rehollowing China ship, there's different consequences and they can distinguish between the two. This is not just some random loose cannons out there firing these weapons at these tankers. So this is something that Iran

35:19understands. They're supplying weapons, they're supplying money and China is, I would submit complicit. They know they're not hitting Chinese ships, China can get involved and we'll see I am certain, I have reasonable certainty that this was something that was discussed between Secretary of State Rubio and his Chinese counterpart that all this commercial shipping and the Red Sea, the Gulf of Iran, the Gulf of Aden is something that China can't put up their hands, they stop hitting ships, we need to have the free flow of the oil. And that ultimately is to the benefit of China, if they would open up that oil and this would really

36:20mean a regime change because I believe that the Iranian President, I don't believe that's who, I think he's just the puppet, the Jepetto, Zairgc and the Mullahs and I believe they've gone too far and I believe that the Iranian leadership will not agree to any, you know, some okay, we're just kind of nuclear red lines, I think it has to be a complete regime change and that's I think a big obstacle if China would get involved that far but I think the stage one of the first phase in this that we can reasonably look at is to make sure that there are no Iranian weapons or Iranian-backed militias that are aiming weapons at global oil shipments that we open up the street of our moves and protect that vital commodity in that critical choke point around the

37:24world so don't go away, we have a break and we'll be right back after this. Are you looking for healthy snacks but you've had enough of all this sweet sugary energy bars?

38:29forward slash out loud. Welcome back America, this is your host Fred Galwyn. We are going to move on from what we were just talking about as far as China's. They all have control, but they have influence and their area of influence, I'm specifically speaking about, is with Iran. We have been trying to reach an agreement for months and that may seem like a fool's errand, but if you don't darken the doorstep and try to negotiate and that's what President Trump is doing is seeing the fourth or fifth move on this chess board at real time and to understand that yes I've been continually coordinating showing good face and a good faith to the Gulf state leaders that we want to negotiate and we're getting more of them

39:33on board, but then China is the critical linchpin and China has interests in this as well. Strong interests in making sure that they are able to receive this oil. In the first step like I said, China may not back a regime change to put a stop to that nuclear red line in Iran, but they can say hey you need to get it covered down in line. We're going to open up the straight of our moves. So we will see, but let's shift our focus now to another point in the summit and that was with these rare earths which are critical. And as I mentioned before, China are as our United States Department of Energy estimates there's 91 percent. They have dominance in controlling these rare earths and these are needed for everything that is high-tech,

40:40these magnets. And it's not just simply possessing this, these deposits, it's being able to process them and that's what China they have, they know they have it, they know we depend on it, and so they have leverage. And this is not something that President Xi is going to easily forfeit control over, and that's why President Donald Trump had everybody from his corporate CEOs all across America's powerhouse, high-tech industries there, but what you did not see is in the state dinner this massive display of US military presence because well, as I said, not just F-35s, depend on this rare earth, but our early-burt class destroyers, the javelin-shoulder fire rocket, all of these weapon systems require

41:45rare earth metals which we do not have, we don't have organically. And unfortunately we're really when America has so much resources, but this is not one that we have enough of, and that is very strategic and it's at a huge disadvantage. And so like we saw all year ago in Busan at that summit, all this did was renegotiate that one year truth from last year, and that's what happened last week was in getting this extension, which is good. So we had progress on things that we need that are critical for the United States for our national security. It bought us some time. When we, I'm sure, in the Department of State, on the United States side, we'll continue to seek to diversify our suppliers, but for right now, like I said, it's not just those minerals,

42:53it's how they process them, and that is all roads lead to the five letter word of China, and we have to, we have to depend on that. So anyway, that's something that we need immediately, and it was a huge success in this last summit. Longer term, again, we will see about what we can do with our allies processing, manufacturing, and recycling these types of rare earths, if that is even feasible. And in this area, I'm not the subject matter expertise. I'm not the guy that comes on and speaks with authority on how you mine and manufacture and process and recycle all this kinds of things, but I do know what they go in and how critical that is for us if everybody's talking about, oh, we have a shortage of these interceptor missiles. Well, it is showing a gap

44:01in a seam that can be exploited, because we cannot continue to have this piece be preserved if we don't have the ability to sustain it through preparing for war. And war in the future depends on all things high-tech, and all things high-tech depends on rare earth metals, which we don't have. So on both sides of this, again, you have the American side fully aware that we need these rare earths. You have the Chinese side fully aware that they need the high-tech manufacturing of advanced chips, and that was very clearly telegraphed there at that state dinner, but it wasn't done without grace. It wasn't some slap in the face show of force from our Silicon Valley. I believe that was another success, but there will be

45:08lagging indicators. It is something that there will be more to follow on that. But I want to talk about some things that were very sensitive, especially on the Chinese side, in the US, I think, carefully maneuvered through this minefield, and that is the elephant in the East Room of Taiwan. And that is something that, again, we have two nuclear arm powers, and we don't want to go into have some kind of conflict that all of our military analysts, they predict, like tens of thousands of deaths per day. We have forces such as those in Okinawa. There are thousands of missiles in China aimed at our bases in Okinawa, and our bases in

46:12Republic of Korea, they're on the Korean Peninsula, and in mainland Japan, those bases are all targeted as also our airfields, all the way down to the Philippines, and ranged all the way out into the Marion Island chain, where we have our first and second island chain strategy. It's a, China is very well aware of, and we don't want, I mean, I remember just a only a few years ago, we used to have this phrase that China was a near-peer, then they were called the pacing threat, and although I would say they don't have the same capabilities in their navy, and they don't have the same quantity and capabilities in their air force, the pace of their growth in ship manufacturing, as well as in, I mean, the hockey stick growth of how they're building out their naval and air forces is reminiscent of what you saw

47:14in Yakuza and Sausabou prior to World War II. You saw it there in the late 30s, what Japan was doing. Now we see the same historical trend oscillating and just switch out the name of Japan and China, and we see it happening again. And that has led the United States to situation that we're in, where we are continuing to further coordinate and cooperate with our allies, especially in Southeast and Northeast Asia. We've had very good relations with the new Prime Minister there in Japan, and she is very supportive of the United States, which has not always been the case. There has been a lot of strong opposition with the military presence on bases in mainland Japan and in Okinawa, but this is our strength is our unity, not that we're diverse or divided, that's never

48:21been a strength, and I'm glad we don't have someone like Lloyd Austin and Gerald Milley in charge of our defense department anymore, but we have someone that can show military strength at the reception as these F-22 Raptors and the B-2 Spirit bombers are flying over, but then we immediately balance that with this nice symmetry of pageantry and bands, and I believe that is like Trump and Melania, the beauty and the beast, you have somebody with a stick, like President Theodore Roosevelt, and then you have this lovely lady inside, and I believe what we saw during the summit is strength, power, as well as grace, and we want to cooperate,

49:21we want to communicate in that cooperation and show that both sides, just like Donald Trump wrote in the art of the deal, both sides can achieve wins here through you have something I want, advanced chips, I have something you need, rare earth metals, present G, President Trump come together, what that looks like in the future, that's for the people with the big brains to sit down and negotiate and to see what we can reach as far as an agreement without going to a conflict again, situation in Iran, it is what it is, it does impact not just global security impacts, global economics, but that's a side show, the real income earner and the primary job that the

50:22United States has is seeking to balance in our relationship with China while we don't allow them to become such a superpower that we will never be able to, I mean, we still have militarily that can have a massive impact to China, but we don't want to have a huge bloody slaughter and that's what it would be, this would be a bloodbath, we know that, they know that and that's not what either one of us wants, so we have to just like the rules, the wild, wild, west is an armed society, is a plight society, so we have to be able to see what that is and live in peace and harmony with a massive superpower and be able to conduct trade with them all at the same time. So one of the things that Donald Trump has been doing is he has been communicating to US corporations that if you want to

51:31have your financial benefits from the US government, we need to reshore US manufacturing jobs and we need to be able to rebuild our production here inside the United States and although this was not something that was addressed directly as a topic of discussion at the summit, this is something that having the presence of all these American corporate CEOs that does transmit to President Xi is cabinet and all is analyst that America is going to rebuild at home, not just in the military sense that we are focusing on the western hemisphere, but economically, just like wrote a release 10 months ago in the national security strategy that the importance is our homeland and the importance in that national security strategy is you cannot separate

52:38our military from our domestic economy, those two are tied together and we cannot have a situation that we've gotten ourselves into where we are dependent upon foreign countries that we are adversarial with or we are likely to become adversarial or hostile with, we just can't have it and that's something that was clearly articulated in the 2025 national security strategy and that's something that was indirectly messaged to President Xi and his team that President Trump is going full bore with all these CEOs and even other CEOs that are out high tech but all across America we are doing whatever we can to rebuild and put the economic investment incentives and to be able to remanufacture and build here at home into a symbol, especially our military products here at home,

53:43that is something that President Xi has cabinet and his analysts they're going to have to go back to the drawing board and see how long is that going to take the United States and they are right now we are dependent we cannot sustain military operations without depending on these rare earth metals from China and many other things and that is I won't say criminal that was very foolish and President Trump does not suffer fools so we in America are very focused on reopening our factories and being able to domestically rebuild using our own essential materials that we have replacements here at home that we cannot have cut off that is that is very very important that President Xi left Washington DC with this image and this visualization of

54:47manufacturing and those groundbreaking ceremonies is America is reshoring all of this so but it's the bottom line this was a very successful summit and we did get this temporary you know one-year approval on rare earths again and we are pushing very hard for a 911 number figuratively as conceptually I should say for us AI governance that we have to be able to have communications in case something unexpected happens and that we and China both have an understanding that is in our best interest to open up the straight of or moves into allow global commodities to return to normal that is in our best interest in America and for global to combat global inflation that's good for good for all but that takes China taking action again they

55:52don't control but they influence and I believe that could be a near-term win it all depends on the decisions that President Xi you know will make following this summit so anyway thank you for staying with me this last hour we've covered a lot of ground and this was a very important summit I'm glad many of you had your eyes on this and the state dinner and we'll see more the fact that again we had three of these meetings in the 47th presidential administration is a huge success and we need to continue this cadence up and this president to you know congratulations and my hats off to all the hard work that this president and this administration have done so until next week God bless you God bless America and God bless our troops especially those that are for the
