Former President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee in this year's presidential election, told Breitbart News exclusively on Monday in Pennsylvania that he plans to expose efforts by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to take American farmland away from U.S. control.
“We have to take control of our own land,” Trump said in a nearly hour-long phone interview with Breitbart News on Sunday afternoon. “We have to take control of our economy. We have to take control of our borders. We have to make sure we're accountable for our country. And we're losing that because of these incredible leaders. They're allowing our country to be betrayed without our knowledge. We have to be very careful and cautious. We can't allow this to happen. Do you think China is going to let us buy their land and do the same thing as them? I don't think so. It's not going to happen. So we have to be very careful.”
The purchase of land in the United States by China and Chinese companies has been a growing concern for years. The Chinese Communist Party and its affiliates have been buying up farmland from coast to coast, including near military bases. This issue became a major issue in connection with the Chinese spy balloons that were first spotted over Montana and then flew around the country. Of course, during that time, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris just allowed the Chinese Communist Party spy balloons to fly across the entire continental United States, until Biden finally ordered the Air Force to shoot them down as they flew over the coast of South Carolina and into the Atlantic Ocean. Senators have been warning about this issue for years, including President Trump's running mate Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas).
On Monday, President Trump will be in Pennsylvania appearing at an event focused on preventing the Chinese Communist Party from acquiring American land, along with former Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.) and former Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell. Tidy The rally, organized by the American Conservation Initiative, will be held in western Pennsylvania.
Grenell said: Breitbart News Saturday The event, which will air this weekend on the SiriusXM 125 Patriot Channel, will focus on what he called “the expanding Chinese Communist Party strategy on American soil.” Zeldin said: New York Postwarned that the Chinese Communist Party was “threatening our food supply.”
Trump told Breitbart News that if elected in November, his administration would put in place very strict guidelines to block Chinese takeovers of American farmland and key American industries such as the telecommunications sector.
“I've always done that, and I've done that with, for example, communications,” Trump told Breitbart News. “Other countries have tried to manipulate our communications, and I have not tolerated that. We have to be careful. We're going to be very firm about that.”
In contrast, Trump said his opponent, Harris, would not be able to take on world leaders such as Chinese President Xi Jinping on the issue.
Asked if she would be able to handle a conversation with Xi, Ms Harris replied: “No, not even the most basic conversation,” adding: “She can't answer Oprah Winfrey's questions.”
More details about Trump's latest interview with Breitbart News will be released soon.
