With Gordon Chang & Robert Joseph

Gordon Chang, Contributor, Gatestone Institute

• I had a fascinating conversation with Gordon Chang about the relative quiet that is now in evidence after the election of Donald Trump in the Western Pacific, whether it is likely to persist, whether it suggests that the Chinese leadership is so beset by problems at home that it is unwilling to risk conflict with the United States, especially under the leadership of someone like Donald Trump, and the importance of ending our practice of enabling the Chinese Communist Party with technology and resources and other help including to the People's Liberation Army emanating from our country.

• I spoke with Robert Joseph about the threats that we face in the nuclear arena and what it will take to deter such threats from being actualized by any of several hostile powers that are feverishly building up their own nuclear forces for the purposes; it seems quite clear, of attacking our friends, our interests, and possibly our own people. 
• We also discussed the extent to which we need to modernize our nuclear weapons, as well as augment deterrence with effective space-based missile defenses.
