I think Janet Yellen should never have been Treasury Secretary. I think she's ridiculous. She's the one who said inflation was transitory when it was clearly not transitory for the better part of four years of Joe Biden's presidency. It was directly tied to their policy. I just happen to also question whether or not raising tariffs will actually create American jobs.

And what kind of American jobs are we going to create here if we do this? Clearly product prices are going to go up. If all things stay the same, Tariffs stay high with China and others. Product prices will go up globally. Hopefully there's enough demand to support the higher price. Maybe there is. I believe there's a lot of demand in the US economy right now. But you have to worry about China.

China right now is on that precipice of, is there enough demand to keep them paying for their growth? I'm not sure. So that's the risk. And the payoff would be, Patrick, is Tim Cook says, I'll give a half a trillion dollars. We're going to build 500 billion dollars worth of manufacturing facilities. In America.

Letnick said, okay, we're going to have Americans screwing those little screws in iPhones. No, that's not how it happens. They come back and if they do spend money to build a manufacturing plant here, which would be great, economic activity is good, they'll all be robotics. Every single iPhone will be built with robotics.

The only reason why it's not happening now is because it's too expensive to build a new manufacturing plant with the robotics. But if you're going to make the... zu importieren, dann machst du es hier und es werden nicht mehr Amerikaner in der Produktion arbeiten. Es wird mehr Produktion, aber nicht mehr Amerikaner in der Produktion von Produkten und so weiter.

20%?

20%?

We're 14% of exports, maybe 16%? We're probably... Ja, genau. They're on a path to actually go into more than a recession, maybe even a depression. They can't keep up. I mean, they've grown. They had massive growth. Their growth has almost stopped.

Of course, yeah, in labor.

Wie haben sie uns? Und die Vorstellung ist, dass, weil wir so einen massiven Handelsunfall haben, wir in irgendeiner Art und Weise... Nehmen Sie die Zahlen, Rob. Sie sind da.

Let's hear it. Open up our markets. Trump loves to drill for oil. If we became a global major exporter of oil... That's a term, though. So China goes to number one, Patrick. Let's say they take over the United States in two, three, five years, whatever. Do it per capita now. They have five times our population. But they don't care about that. They don't care about that.

From a third world country to a developed nation. They're not wired like you. They're not wired like us. My point is, we get hung up, are we first or second? Are we the biggest military or the second biggest military? My point is, we're the most powerful country. It doesn't matter if China has a bigger GDP than the United States. We'll still be a heck of a lot more powerful than they will.
