Can Trump Secure Release of Jailed Catholic Pro-Democracy Advocate Jimmy Lai? | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

In Hong Kong, media mogul and pro-democracy advocate Catholic, Jimmy Lai, remains in a maximum security prison for charges related to violating the National Security Law, but now that Donald Trump is President-elect, Jimmy Lai's fate could change. In a recent interview before the November 5th presidential election, Trump told a podcast host that he would "100% get Jimmy Lai out of the country." Author of the recently released "Plan Red: China's Project to Destroy America", Gordon Chang, joins to share how likely he thinks it will be that President-elect Trump will be able to secure Jimmy Lai's release and how quickly he thinks it could happen. Chang talks to us about the relationship between President-elect Trump and Xi Jinping. He fills us in on his final thoughts. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
