Trump knocked this whole trip to the ChiComs out of the park, and the rest of it as well, but specifically the time and attention that he gave to the ChiComs here, he just hit the ball out of the park precisely because he knows how to negotiate with them. He knows what is important to them.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uzM7XoVVGQc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>He had his granddaughter, 6 years old, that sang and recited poetry in Mandarin, and the Drive-Bys thought, &#8220;What a cheap show. What an absolutely cheap show. That\u2019s beyond the presidential pale. How transparent can that be, having his 6-year-old learn Chinese just for this trip? That is child abuse,&#8221; is sort of what they were saying. It turns out that that was a fundamental and key element to the success of the meetings with the ChiComs.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: While I\u2019m on the subject of the president and the ChiComs, this morning on Air Force One on the way back to the United States after the Asian trip, Trump went back and talked to the reporters in the back of the plane. A reporter said, &#8220;Why are those relationships with China and others so important, and is there a risk of getting too close to President Xi Jinping?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>THE PRESIDENT: The relationship is always important. It doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s necessarily close. It\u2019s really a relationship based on respect. To me, a relationship based on respect is much more important than anything else, including friendship, because this is really something. They have to respect our country, and they have not respected our country for a long period of time.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Now, this is really key, folks. That may sound like a &#8212; not quite a throwaway answer, but he is really, really on to something here. The difference between respect and friendship. Now, the left, their attitude about world affairs, global security and so forth is that the United States poses the greatest problem. (interruption) No, no, no, no. They really do. They pose the greatest problem because we\u2019re the superpower. We have the biggest arsenal. We have more nukes than anybody else. We\u2019re the only nation on earth that\u2019s ever used nukes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-254770\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-shake.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-shake.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-shake-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>And they are inherently predisposed to the idea the United States is the problem in the world. Particularly when a Republican is in the White House &#8212; Reagan, George W. Bush, now Trump. So the left thinks that the best way to ameliorate this danger posed to the world by the United States is to become friends with all of our enemies, to become friends with all of the world leaders, even if we had to give them free health care. Trump is saying, &#8220;Friendship shmenship! That\u2019s not what\u2019s on the docket here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll explain in a minute.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: How many of you remember during the presidential campaign, particularly Trump\u2019s rallies in his campaign when he would constantly appear to be criticizing the ChiComs? He called \u2019em essentially&#8230; Well, he didn\u2019t call \u2019em cheaters, but&#8230; Well, maybe so. He talked about what they were doing to us, how they were unfair in trade, how their currency manipulation was very harmful and damaging. And then he lashed out at American political leaders for being stupid idiots for doing the deals they had done with the ChiComs.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I had a lot of people during those instances say, &#8220;I wish he\u2019s shut up about that. We don\u2019t want make them mad! You don\u2019t talk about them that way.&#8221; I said, &#8220;No, no, no, no. You\u2019re missing the point. Talk like that does not make the ChiComs mad; it makes them smile.&#8221; When Trump runs around and basically says, &#8220;The ChiComs are running rings around American leaders and that\u2019s enabling them to really manipulate things in their favor,&#8221; they smile. They like being acknowledged as winners.<\/p>\n<p>They like being acknowledged at smart and brilliant and people that prevail. Now, the American way of looking at negotiations with foreign powers who might be said to be enemies is you try to come up with a deal. What\u2019s the typical deal? The typical deal is where both sides give something up, or both sides are traditionally unhappy with it but they get a compromise, and that\u2019s said to be a good deal. That\u2019s not how the ChiComs do it. The ChiComs do not give up anything in exchange for some sort of agreement.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-243183\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/FB-080317-China-USA-Fist.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/FB-080317-China-USA-Fist.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/FB-080317-China-USA-Fist-300x158.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>That\u2019s not their mentality. The ChiCom mentality &#8212; no matter what they do &#8212; is win, win, win, which happens to also be Trump\u2019s. The ChiComs, whatever it is &#8212; whatever foreign international deal, treaty, arrangement, negotiation, whatever it is &#8212; if they don\u2019t benefit from it (and to hell with whatever else happens to anybody else) they\u2019re not gonna do it. The ChiComs do not think like westerners do in the sense that, &#8220;Well, you give a little here and you get back something here and you end up with a deal where none of us get all that we want.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But we each get some or enough that we\u2019re happy.&#8221; That\u2019s not how they go about it. They don\u2019t give up anything. There\u2019s no reason for \u2019em to. They don\u2019t think that way. That\u2019s not in their vocabulary. That\u2019s not in their mind-set whatsoever. So in negotiating with them, you have to understand that about them. You still have to have arrangements, deals, what have you. And that\u2019s why Trump talked about respect in this sound bite being far more important than friendship. To the left, friendship with our enemies, &#8220;That\u2019s so important!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If we can make them like us, they won\u2019t provoke Trump into nuking them. If we can make them like us, we\u2019ll be safer.&#8221; All of this namby-pamby stuff. But that\u2019s not how you deal with the ChiComs. If it doesn\u2019t benefit \u2019em, whatever you\u2019re trying to get done, they won\u2019t do it. Let\u2019s look at North Korea. North Korea is the third party here. What does Trump want? Trump wants North Korea silenced, shut down, stopped, what have you, without having to fire a shot. Trump thinks that the ChiComs can do it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-247683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/north-korea.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"585\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/north-korea.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/north-korea-300x109.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 585px) 100vw, 585px\" \/>But they\u2019re not gonna do it just because you ask them to. They\u2019re not gonna do it if you try to leverage them into doing it. They\u2019re not gonna&#8230; Whether the Norks are their allies or not, the ChiComs are not gonna do anybody a favor to make the world safer or anything else. They\u2019re not just gonna do a favor. There\u2019s got to be something in it for \u2019em before they\u2019ll do anything like that. And so you have to come up with something that benefits the ChiComs that also accomplishes something that you want.<\/p>\n<p>You have to come up with something that once it\u2019s done and over with, the Chinese can run around say they won or they got a great benefit or what have you. So what was the benefit? The benefit that Trump established with the ChiComs was acknowledged and favorable trade outcomes. Remember, Trump began negotiating with the ChiComs during the campaign. He laid down the law. He told the ChiComs that they\u2019re cheaters. He told the ChiComs they\u2019ve been running roughshod over the United States and those days are gonna end.<\/p>\n<p>When Trump\u2019s in the White House, the ChiComs aren\u2019t gonna get away with this because the days of stupid Americans are gonna be over &#8212; and he focused on trade. Remember, everybody was saying, &#8220;Why so much focus on trade? What\u2019s the big deal? NAFTA here every day, trade?&#8221; &#8216;Cause that\u2019s where Trump was gonna go to get what he needed out of the ChiComs. So after two years of publicly threatening the ChiComs with tariffs and all kinds of frozen trade opportunities, the North Korean situation presented an option, and it was used.<\/p>\n<p>Trump was able to propose normalizing trade arrangements that were beneficial to the ChiComs, not as beneficial as they had been. It was a far different Trump from what was on the campaign. He appeared to be giving up significant ground when he hadn\u2019t at all. He\u2019d been asking for much more than he was ever gonna ask for during the campaign. In exchange for this new Trump, this reasonable Trump that was proposing normalized trade relationships and agreements, Trump secured an agreement from the ChiComs to deal with the North Koreans a little bit more strictly or beneficially to the world and America than they had been predisposed to.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-228640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/TrumpChicomFlowers-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/TrumpChicomFlowers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/TrumpChicomFlowers.jpg 594w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>I don\u2019t know what the final result of all they was, but I know what the objective was. The objective was for Trump to lean on Xi Jinping to essentially eliminate the North Korean threat. But they\u2019re not gonna do that just because you ask \u2019em. They certainly not gonna do it if you demand it. They\u2019re certainly not gonna do it to make the world safe or anything. They don\u2019t care about that. All they care about is when it\u2019s all over being able to say they won or that whatever happened, they benefited from &#8212; and if friendship is your objective, you\u2019re never gonna pull things like that off.<\/p>\n<p>But respect is a whole different thing, and that is what Trump was saying in that bite with the media on the trip to Air Force One back to the United States. One little semi-related story. You heard about the three UCLA basketball players that were also in China? They\u2019re being held in jail for shoplifting? All during the weekend, the stories about this were dire, that Trump &#8212; the American State Department &#8212; was not phone succeed in getting these guys out of prison or out of jail or what have you.<\/p>\n<p>The ChiComs wanted to drop the hammer. You don\u2019t do this. You don\u2019t come over and shoplift from them. They jail Chinese citizens who do it. Well, after the conversation that Trump had with Xi Jinping, this guy who has amassed Mao-style power now&#8230; He\u2019s the most powerful ChiCom leader since Mao Tse-tung &#8212; or, I\u2019m sorry, Mao Zedong. (They change the guy\u2019s name pronunciation frequently.) Everything Trump had his personal conversation with Xi Jinping, these basketball players are going to be returned to the U.S. after having been detained by the ChiComs for shoplifting.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Three UCLA basketball players arrested in China for allegedly shoplifting while their team was in the country for a tournament last week have been released and were flying back home today.&#8221; Trump did it. Now, you might say, &#8220;Trump didn\u2019t do it. The ChiComs made a big show out of holding \u2019em, but they were always gonna let \u2019em go.&#8221; Really? You know that? I\u2019m just telling you, this trip that Trump has finished and is now on the way home from was a killer economic and foreign policy trip.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-254838\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-Xi-Jinping.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-Xi-Jinping.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/650-111417-Trump-Xi-Jinping-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/>You\u2019re not gonna hear about it. The Drive-Bys may themselves not even know. I mean, they had some reporters on the trip, but this stuff isn\u2019t gonna be reported as it actually happened. The last thing that can happen is Trump be given credit for anything. About all you\u2019re gonna know about this trip is that Trump shook hands with Putin and that Putin looked like he owned Trump and that Putin looked like Trump was just a little puppy dog almost embarrassed to be in Putin\u2019s presence, \u2019cause Trump knows that Putin is so much smarter and so much tougher.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s about all you\u2019re gonna hear about what happened on the trip.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t doubt me: It was a great success.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: We\u2019re gonna start in Los Angeles with Eddie. I\u2019m glad you called, sir. Welcome. It\u2019s great to have you with us.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Maha Rushie, you are the godhead.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Thank you, I appreciate that.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Rush, I want to say I used to license movies to China, Japan, Korea, and then I negotiated for a Japanese company, and you are, you know, right on the money, that the Chinese are master negotiators. They always say &#8220;yes&#8221; even when they say &#8220;no.&#8221; They\u2019re always smiling, shaking their head, you feel very comfortable dealing with them. And they give very, very little in the negotiation, and you\u2019re happy to get a deal from them and then you realize, &#8220;Huh? What happened?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-227717\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/XI-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/XI-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/XI.jpg 594w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>RUSH: Well, what you have to realize any time you\u2019re gonna deal with them is that whatever the end is, it has to be something they can say to everybody else and themselves that they won it, that they won the negotiation. If there is mutual benefit in the deal, the mutual benefit has to greatly benefit them far greater than the other participants in the deal.<\/p>\n<p>The point is that the Chinese do not approach these things like westerners do. The don\u2019t start out with throwaways. Let\u2019s put it that way. A common negotiating technique in the United States, let\u2019s say you\u2019re in negotiations for a new employment contract where you work. And you want $25 million and access to a King Air, you know, prop jet airplane. But instead you go and ask for $50 million and a Boeing 727 or a Boeing 737 knowing full well you\u2019re not gonna get it, those are throwaways.<\/p>\n<p>You build in things that you really don\u2019t think you\u2019re gonna get and you don\u2019t really want, you can throw them away to look like you are negotiating, to look like you are giving something up. ChiComs don\u2019t do that. They just tell you what\u2019s gonna be, what is. You have to know them going in to deal with them this way. And they don\u2019t respond to your throwaways. They know full well &#8212; look, it\u2019s cultural mind-set differences.<\/p>\n<p>The definition of a successful negotiation here is where both sides give something up and maybe neither side is really totally happy, but that\u2019s a great deal. Not to them. They\u2019re not happy giving anything up. Snerdley asks, &#8220;How do you get stuff out of \u2019em?&#8221; You have to be able, when it\u2019s all over, the negotiations, whatever you\u2019re doing with the Chinese, at the end of it, whatever happens, they have to be able to say the benefit to them is undeniable.<\/p>\n<p>So in the case of Trump, North Korea is the elephant in the room. Trump wants help from Xi Jinping on neutralizing what\u2019s-his-face, Kim Jong-un. But Xi Jinping\u2019s got no interest in doing that for the sake of humanity, for the betterment of the world. If getting rid of the North Koreans doesn\u2019t benefit the Chinese, to hell with it. He doesn\u2019t care about the instability of the world except as it might affect China. So that\u2019s the key. So you have to appeal to the Chinese on the basis that, &#8220;Look, I want to make a new trade deal with you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, remember, Trump started out on the campaign trail telling us he\u2019s gonna be tough. The ChiComs have been getting away with murder \u2019cause Americans are so stupid, but those days are over. The free ride of the Chinese is over. So they\u2019ve been hearing that for two years. So they\u2019re expecting Trump to come in and strip everything away, take away all the benefits they have, all the advantages. He didn\u2019t do that. He gave \u2019em favorable trade deals but they have to help us with Kim Jong-un. So neutralizing Kim Jong-un then equals a benefit for the ChiComs. Look , it\u2019s far more complicated than this. I\u2019m trying to tell you this in 20 seconds. Which I did, by the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Trump&#039;s trip to visit the ChiComs specifically has been a grand-slam home run that you&#039;re not gonna hear about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":254739,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
