And over the past month, we saw dairy, fruit and vegetables, all kinds of prices go down for basic staples.

So that's a great development.

Going forward,

The President removed some tariffs in connection with some deals related to food coming from abroad, bananas, coffee, cocoa, the kinds of things we just don't make in the United States.

The United States is a food powerhouse.

When we saw inflation earlier, it's really about housing, health care driven by Obamacare disaster.

So I don't think that food imports are really going to be an issue for us.

The tariff program is really about creating jobs, and the President's regulatory approach is really about bringing prices down and bringing affordability.

So, kind of the way you put it there, a specific direction, I would say no.

Whenever we're imposing tariffs or doing deals, the purpose of the trade program is to reshore American manufacturing and protect American food security.

It's really about jobs and increasing wages, which we've seen over the past few months.

When it comes to prices, the president is undertaking a lot of other actions, you know,

energy policy, tax policy, regulatory, gas prices are down, etc.

So we don't see the trade policy really as driving prices, we see it as driving jobs.

And so my conversations with the Chinese government over the past few months, as you mentioned, have covered a variety of issues.

One of them has been TikTok.
