Trump's China Summit

Mark Simone guest-hosts The Sean Hannity Show while Sean travels with President Trump in China, breaking down the high-stakes summit with President Xi, the intense surveillance environment, and the unusual restrictions placed on phones, computers, reporters, and staff. Simone highlights the red-carpet welcome President Trump received, the state dinner, the formal Chinese performance of “YMCA,” and reports that China may be willing to help on Iran and avoid sending weapons to the regime. Gordon Chang joins the hour to explain China’s long history of broken agreements, its strategic use of Iran as a proxy, the importance of Taiwan, and why President Trump’s unpredictability gives the U.S. leverage in negotiations. The hour frames the summit as both a diplomatic test and a major geopolitical moment involving trade, energy, Iran, Taiwan, surveillance, and U.S.-China power competition.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
