I mean, this is this is going to be probably a whole other segment, but I'll just throw out there at some point we need to have a discussion about these tariffs. Now is probably not the time because it's a very large discussion. OK, but we need to have a discussion about these tariffs.

All right. So basically, what did the American people hire Trump to do? Right. They hired to stabilize prices, to get things more normalized. And yes, we have these issues around the world in terms of, you know, where we stand in trade. However, as we have been talking about, we just talked about this needs to be very surgical. We need to have Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers doing the choreography.

We don't need to have bull in a china shop. And the tariff situation, given the precarious economic situation that Biden has left us and the fact that the citizens of the United States want price stability is absolutely maddening. I understood art of the deal. I understood the first time around that we're trying to put some pressure, show who's the big dog, get people to come to the table.

But now, you know, we're going after our allies. We're going after we're trying to kind of separate ourselves from China. Well, we have companies who decided to move manufacturing from China to Mexico so that they could be more aligned with the United States and North America. And now we're putting these crazy tariffs on it. This is something that frankly, nobody in any economic circle that I know

I agree. That was the first time we tried this and he got them to the table. And now we need to have sort of a different situation because the reality is that, as you said, He's made huge strides. We have a tiny fraction of the encounters at the border. So that is moving in the right direction. But things like price stability are not necessarily yet moving in the right direction.

And to throw this into the mix, At a time that is so precarious from an economic situation, even if that is the ultimate outcome, it seems like the wrong tactic to take because the situation on the economic front is so volatile. Find another path to do that. That's all I'll have to say on that.

And that's and that's going back to the surgical part. If it was something very specific, I could understand. But across the board at these levels seems really insane.
