It's basically like if you have an argument with your spouse, that's not real, you know, it's not a real one.

It's like a small thing.

Fair enough, but...

You're right, and I think they overreacted, and it's proof that they overreacted, because a day or two later, there's a framework that makes sense, right?

What did we say?

We said we cared about it for national security, right?

We said we care about it for national security.

I mean, it's obvious we care about it for national security, because if you're gonna build a golden dome,

over the United States of America, right?

Wouldn't you prefer the Golden Dome cover Greenland?

So when you're knocking out the missiles, you're not knocking them out right over your head.

Like we've all seen Israel like knocking out the missiles right over their head with their Iron Dome.

Wouldn't you prefer to knock out the missiles if you live on the East Coast of the United States of America over Greenland, a couple of thousand miles away where there's no people, right?

Doesn't that sound better?

So this is sort of where we're thinking about it and how our national security team is thinking about it.

Well, the framework is a national security-based framework, that that's what the United States cares about.

We care about our national security, and we care about the shipping lanes.

So let's talk about the national security and shipping lanes, and let's see if we can't figure out a framework to do that together.

And I think that's what the president truthed about.

He said we're going to try to figure that out together, because those were the key points that the United States of America cared about.
