Rubio BEGS China To Save The World Economy! w/ Col Macgregor

Colonel Douglas Macgregor reacts to Marco Rubio's plea for China to pressure Iran, noting that Rubio has "turned everything on its head" because China, Japan, and Korea have already made arrangements with Iran to allow their oil tankers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz unmolested, and that China has recently announced it will not observe and abide by US sanctions.

Macgregor tells Jimmy that if Trump goes to Beijing with anything other than an attitude characterized by cordiality and humility, he's going to be embarrassed, and that China is "not going to accommodate on energy"—instead tightening export controls on critical minerals and reducing its holdings of US treasuries.

He predicts that the US will restart the air and missile campaign within 48 hours, which will halt all movement through the strait and permanently alienate most of the world against the United States, especially China. Macgregor concludes that "Beijing is normally always trying to accommodate" the US on tariffs and other issues, but that "this is a sea change in Beijing's relations with Washington."
