Could you break down, sorry, I just want to, because the fentanyl thing is so confusing. Could you explain to us, like, what is the actual connection between China and fentanyl? Like, in what sense is China propping that up?

Does rebalancing the trade deficit really get in the way of those goals for China? I'm just trying to think about what a big, beautiful deal looks like for America, and it sounds like we sort of rebalance the deficit in terms of trade. China just buys more of our stuff. They also get their act together on fentanyl, whatever that would look like.

Yeah, I was going to say, I mean, the way you lay it out, it sounds like a kiss and makeup between the US and China is actually very easy. I mean, based on everything you've just described there, our goals are not really at odds with each other. So I guess my main dumb question is, what's getting in the way? Like, what's the problem? Why can't we just figure this out?

And it just brings up this question, like how is the world order gonna shape up and how do the tariffs going up and then coming down affect all of that? Given everything you've seen this year, The election, the tariffs, the fact that the tariffs just came down, what's happening in the markets.
