EXCERPT:

O’LEARY: “TikTok, Congress on a bipartisan basis said, 'Look, it's a spyware and we want to shut it down January 19th.' It's an act of Congress, it's the demand of the people of America, they made that decision. The Chinese came here, the supreme leader who controls it, and he used our court system to sue us, to litigate that from happening, suing the American people. Do you think I can do that in China? Not a chance in hell I could do that in China. So I’m okay if you want to use our legal system against us, but I have to do the same thing. I want access to their courts, I want access to their IP, they have to pay the same price to list their companies that I do, and they don’t because they don’t have the same compliance costs, and we should kick them off the exchanges. I want to go to DEFCON-19 against China. I don’t like tariffs against anybody else, but I want to bring them to their knees with a blowtorch to deal with us fairly. That is why you use tariffs. You squeeze them because the Chinese only understand the stick. I’ve said it countless times, they understand the stick, they respect the stick, give them the stick. And believe me, after enough pain, because their economy has got some fractures in it, they will say, 'Okay, just kidding. We will play on a level playing field.' I want heavy, heavy, heavy tariffs on China, more than we have, even more, because I live with. They steal our IP. I can’t say enough negative stuff. I'm sorry, I’m just telling the truth."
