Malcolm Collins: [00:00:00] Hello, it's simone i'm excited to be here with you today today We are going to be talking about this crazy inauguration that we just watched I have some footage of it from cnn right here

My priorities have changed, because politicians don't know how to solve problems, but I do.

So let's be clear. I am here. To solve the world's problems. And I believe the world's problems begin with you.

Malcolm Collins: Yeah, that's why there's why nobody trusts me anymore no, but I want to I want to talk about the inauguration But also all of the politics stuff that we have been You Skipping recently, like the plan to Trump not saying that he wouldn't use military force to annex Greenland or Panama or what was the other one?

Canada. I love that. He's like, yeah, well, [00:01:00] might attack. Come on. I, you know, honestly, people are like, what a crazy thing to do, but it's like not at all a crazy thing to do for like a ton of reasons. Yeah. What? It's not like they're even using it. They're not doing a good job. We were better. It's an empty country, and he's right when he goes like, we need it for world freedom.

Like, he's not like insane for saying that. Because the ice caps are melting that means that global trade routes are likely going to move further. along the northern pathway. China is, and Russia are both already setting up tons of bases around that area. A crucial choke point for there, like the new Malacca Strait, is going to be past Greenland.

The U. S. magnanimously on behalf of the rest of the world is willing to patrol those waters to keep free trade operational. And Peter

Simone Collins: Zeihan always goes on about this, you know, about the basically uncompensated role that the U. S. plays in Securing global trade because of its willingness to patrol the seas.

It's [00:02:00] it's not a America, what an a*****e thing. It's a you're welcome thing

Malcolm Collins: Even like china benefits from this even yeah, seriously

Simone Collins: Yeah, no, there's some of the worst like china is is one of the worst losers should america choose to stop patrolling the seas and maintaining Oh, by the global supply chains.

So

Malcolm Collins: By the way, in terms of what I think he's actually attempting to do with this Greenland thing is I think that he's actually attempting to bluff them with a larger anchor offer. This is something you're taught to do, Stanford MBA here which is we want to annex the whole country. And then you negotiate that down to a few military bases here and here.

That's what's being done here. It's. Well, it's the same in like fashion marketing, you might have a line where there's one purse that's, you know, 25, 000, but you're mostly selling stuff that's in the 500 range like

one, we never should have given that up. Like, that's insane. What a mistake. Well, Jimmy [00:03:00] Carter's what a douche canoe that guy was, the president.

Trump is right, that's why he didn't get re elected. You can't just give away something that like thousands of people died building, you know, like anyway, so you're giving away something that you didn't earn, that you didn't suffer for. That's what Jimmy Carter did. It's really great to feel magnanimous when you're giving away other people's land and money.

But, What I think Trump's aiming for there is just some restrictions on Chinese trade through the Panama Canal, which again, really smart thing to be aiming for. And if you can push for something larger there, you know, go for it. So I was both of these. They're very, very reasonable things. The Canada thing is mostly a troll, but a very, very funny troll.

And what I could see happening was Canada and what I might push for it. Like if I was in the president's orbit right now is an offer to have The various districts of Canada vote if they want to be annexed by the United States Because there are some like large parts [00:04:00] of Canada that would definitely prefer to be part of the United States.

Yeah, actually Alberta region I've talked to them about this before the people in the reason like yeah We would be totally for that and that really changed the equation for the Canadian government To a point where you might even be able to get the Canadian government to go for it by being like, look at how lefty your country will be once these people leave and with the United States, that'd be really hard for Democrats to turn down because huge chunk of land, Canadians, but it would also help Republicans because it would be a right leaning sections that would, that would split for us.

So that's how you actually do that, by the way, but now let's get to inauguration stuff. So so my favorite inauguration scene, which you didn't even talk to me, did you hear about the Gulf of America? Yeah.

Simone Collins: I did hear about the Gulf of America. It does have a nice ring to it. I'm with Trump on this. It makes more sense than the Gulf of Mexico.

And I love that. This is the

Malcolm Collins: continent of America. It has a gulf. It's the Gulf of America. It's in America. It's in North America. Yes. He didn't say the [00:05:00] Gulf of the USA. Yeah, exactly. This is not Not weird. Yeah, but I know everyone's gonna start calling it the reason why just in case you're wondering because NPR was like hand wringing They're like, but since the 16th century, it's been called the Gulf of Mexico and I go Yeah, because Mexico used to surround the entire Gulf of Mexico in 16th century it doesn't anymore.

People could be like, well, you took that land unjustly. No. Okay, so, first of all, Mexican War here. Do I need to go into the history of the Mexican War? Yeah. Is this going to be interesting for our followers? Okay. So essentially what happened is people in northern Mexico and I'm giving a super short version here.

A lot of them were actually Americans. They had done massive, I guess you could say illegal border crossings. It might be why you don't want to do this, but they had, They had flooded the northern part of Mexico and they really wanted to join the United States. And so the United States worked [00:06:00] out what was a fair market value for an annexation of the territory.

They offered it to Mexico. Mexico said no. And then we're like, well, we're going to take it anyway. And so then we did take it. And then we still paid them for it. A lot of people don't know, we still paid for that territory. Like, it's, it's not as morally gray as people make it out to be.

And I think it's important to remember as a Texan, you know, somebody who lived on that land, somebody whose family was there when it was still part of Mexico. That what's the, what's the word I'm looking for here? Remember the Alamo.
