Bill Haggerty in Speeches at CPAC (2020s)


On Foreign Policy: Deal with communist China from absolute strength

It is amazing to me that the Biden administration has not learned the most fundamental lesson from the Trump administration. To deal with communist China you must deal with the position of absolute strength. What they have tried to do in the Biden administration is negotiate from weakness. They must believe that by turning the other cheek, that that is going to make China turn our way. That is absolutely not the case.

On Free Trade: We have to make in America what is now being made in China

I went to the launch of the new Cadillac, which is made in Springhill, Tennessee and I looked out in the field. there are cars just lined up in the field, waiting for a chip or waiting for a piece that unfortunately had to pipe its way through China and the supply chain. American companies are waking up right now and I applaud that. We have to bring supply chain's home. We have to make in America what is now being made in China. We need to accelerate that process.
