If it's through David Sachs and others, that could be useful.
You know, the economy obviously is incredibly fragile right now.
And so something like this could really tip it over.
So, yeah, listen, I think anyone who has a voice here should use it.
And the challenge here, I think, for people want to use their voice.
And I think this is true for Republicans is it's not one of these situations where you say, well, I understand what he's trying to do here.
But like, this is just absolutely crazy.
It's historically, epically damaging to the entire world and to Americans.
I think that needs to be called out.
You know, with Trump, you never really know.
Is this because he likes all the attention it's getting?
He's kind of dominating the world coverage.
He's an interesting guy.
He was taught by Roy Cohn never to surrender.

I think when when he thinks it's going to hurt the economy is probably when he's been most acceptable to.
to doing his own form of backtracking.
So I think the more this is put in an economic frame by those who have concerns, the better in an economic frame vis-a-vis the American people.
And if he's hearing that from business leaders who are concerned about what it's going to mean in the near or medium term, I think that'd be helpful.
