China’s Communist Party uses “corporate America [and] Wall Street” as proxies in its war against America, said retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Robert Spalding, author of Stealth War: How China Took Over While America’s Elite Slept and senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, in a Friday interview on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight with host Rebecca Mansour and special guest host Ed Martin.
China procures the political support of American companies and institutions through financial incentives, explained Spalding, who reflected on his time in the Trump administration as a national security advisor to President Donald Trump.
“The real challenge that the president has — and this is what I tried to explain when I went to the White House in 2017, [and] as hard as the government might try to fix this problem — [is] the breadth of what the Chinese Communist Party is doing to incentivize corporate America and Wall Street to really be on their side,” Spalding stated.

We’ve had the best politicians money can buy
The great Will Rogers was spot on
That’s what happened in WWll, corporate America sold the Japanese rope the Japanese used to try to hang us.

We’ve had the best politicians money can buy
We have the cheapest politician-harlots money can buy. Send a four figure “donation” and you own them.

Look up Henry Ford’s relationship with Nazi Germany.
You’ll never want to own another Ford.
