The National Security Strategy casts aside decades of wishful thinking.

Our main adversary in this competition, the People's Republic of China, is the master of generational strategies.

If we don't come to terms with them...what I saw the initiative coming out of the White House is a strong stance, like stop.

I see them being very aggressive, and it is putting the squeeze on them.

We need a game plan.

The world's strategic and economic gravity is shifting eastward.

And I know that goes against what Chairman Royce is advocating.

It is a scourge of humanity these people going after and killing thousands and tens of thousands of elephants and rhinoceros, and we will do anything we can to support that.
