The China Threat and Job One for the Next President

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

With the Democratic and Republican presidential nominations now seemingly set, we need to focus on the most important aspect of the job – especially in the next four years: keeping us safe from all enemies, foreign and domestic. The increasingly ominous rise of Communist China will make that a particular challenge.

Recent “dialogues” with top U.S. officials in Singapore and Beijing showcased the PRC’s ambition to be a superpower – not just in its region, but globally. The Chinese contemptuously signaled that status will be achieved at the expense of an America reduced to a “paper tiger.”
