| 0:04.9 | China, and Joe Biden still isn't sure where he is. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show. |
| 0:15.0 | We have a lot to get to today, and we'll get to all of it. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. |
| 0:19.0 | But first, have you noticed that the economy seems to be sort of up and down? Have you noticed that the stock market is up and down? People seem to be uncertain about the future. Well, now might be a pretty good time for you to diversify, considering that Germany is about to enter recession if it is not already done so. China is slowing down that's going to have ramifications for the rest of the global economy, even if the fundamentals in the United States are |
| 0:37.7 | solid. This is one of the reasons why you should be pursuing gold as part of your portfolio. |

| 1:35.1 | to safeguard your savings. Okay, so we have a lot to get to today. We'll get to President |
| 1:39.1 | Trump and the trade war with China, whether it is justified or unjustified in just a few |
| 1:43.7 | minutes. First, however, |
