But the tariffs, because of the election, came in.

And remember, other nations do that to us.

And Charlie understood that.

He saw the money.

He saw what was coming into our country.

And we can use that for Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security — all of these things that we fight so hard for.

And that's exactly what's happening.

The numbers are incredible.

When the news finally came out on election night last November that the race was officially won — came out pretty early in the night.

Charlie was live on camera.

In that moment, he was overcome with emotion.

I've never seen him like this.

He was so happy.

For a long while, he said nothing.

His eyes were filled with tears.

And then he buried his face in his hands, and he started crying.

That wasn't the Charlie I knew, but in thinking about it, it actually was the Charlie I knew, because he had a tremendous heart.

He just wanted what was good for our country, and he saw us going in such a horrible direction.

Lovingly, Eric.

And this was so beautiful.
