Yeah, we would be—you'd see a depression in the beef market here, the beef industry. And we have a great market because people like Nebraska beef. It's world-renowned. That is the one area that you do find some buyers in Europe. If you say Nebraska beef, they'll buy it, and they put it on their menu as such. Omaha Steaks.

I mean, you know, many a holiday, we've all gotten our Omaha Steaks box, right? So we would probably— still has some markets in Asia, but even then we're putting tariffs on them and they're going to reciprocate that. And so it's going to, the ag industry suffers in a trade war because this is the low-hanging fruit for other countries to go after when it comes to America.

Nobody can produce beef, pork, corn, soybeans at a price that we can in the Midwest because we do it at a scale that nobody else can do it at. You know, we have one rancher here in Nebraska that has 200,000 head of cattle. Our governor does like 1,500 piglets every day born. It takes 1,500 to the market.

But we do it at a scale that most people can't think of, which gives us a great price and it makes us very competitive. But if we don't have trade, it would really hurt the Midwest economy. It's not just Nebraska, Iowa as well.

You know, it's a good question. First of all, I love the history of I'm a history guy. So, you know, the Republicans are very protectionist, particularly in the late 1800s. We wanted high tariffs. Was the smooth... The – I can't think of the last name.

Smoot-Hawley. They were both Republicans, and they passed this high tariffs in 1930. And that really put us in a deep depression. And the Republicans have ever since said, you know, we learned our lesson. Free trade is the right way to go. In fact, that's how you provide the best merchandise, you know, the best – product, if you will, at the lowest cost in the most efficient manner.

And it keeps our manufacturers short because you've got to compete. We've bought into this. Now we're going back to our roots. It's funny. The Democrats were more protectionist, you know, 1970s and 80s.
