like the outcome of the art of the deal, it's ultimately just a press release. Like he starts all this chaos. He does all this stuff. And I mean, we're seeing it with this UK trade agreement here. They haven't even reached a deal. What he mostly wants though is to go out to the public and say, hey, look, we have this big, beautiful deal. What's the deal? Oh, don't worry about it.
