And of course, yeah, I mean, I just, you know, I, I get really frustrated because this guy has been essentially defaming our profession. He's been all sorts of, and you know, he's, He's he he deserves to be under a wave of of constant lawsuits that he has to like that drown over based on, you know, his inability to to keep his mouth shut.

I had a friend of mine say, the mistake we made in Trump 1.0 was failure of imagination and that sometimes we, well, he wouldn't do that. Markets completely didn't believe he would go as far as he did on tariffs. They didn't price it in. They messed up. They didn't do that. And I think the biggest mistake probably some swing voters made was assuming that he'd be more like Trump 1.0. Right.

And I think the biggest, the most important thing people have to understand is that this is an entirely different presidency, an entirely different administration.

And this time, this is a government of true believers who, well, some are true believers and some are on the libers.

I always say there's true believers and then there's the ones who just want to be reactionaries. If the left's upset, then we must be winning, even if I'm losing money in the stock market too, right? But this is an entirely different proposition we're facing with Trump 2.0.
