I think the Trump administration is checking him here. Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, really playing the left's game against them about heightened rhetoric. 86-47, is it a direct threat? It could be interpreted as a direct threat. It's not the kind of direct threat I think that is ultimately actionable. It is extremely stupid, like you said.

I think it's very egotistical in the sense that Comey is trying to create some waves, get himself back in the headlines. He's done it. Congratulations. I think he will get some more scrutiny than he's going to be comfortable with. Will it go to the next level? I have a hard time seeing that to the next stage.

Yeah, you know, we've been looking at this from a few levels. One of them is the economic level. I think there's been a need for stability economically here. And the announcement of a lot of these deals, particularly the almost $2 trillion in deals from his Middle East tour, is huge news for the U.S. These are real deals. This really matters. It impacts everything.

every American's wallet in the end. It impacts the stock market. We've seen the stock market really rebound. I mean, part of that's the truce between the U.S. and China that was announced this week, the total walkback of all these tariffs. 30% now is the tariff rate for the U.S. against China, dramatically down. All of this is good news. It's very complicated.

When you're talking about Syria and you're talking about Iran, of course, extremely complicated in terms of the ramifications of these kinds of deals. Trump does a lot of stuff in public. He makes his deals in public. He's saying a lot of things. He's very optimistic about an Iran deal. It's hard to know what's really happening behind the scenes, how close they really are. Iran cannot be trusted.

And I think it is right to be extremely skeptical of any deal we work out with them. That said, this consistent message of Trump trying to broker peace throughout the globe and being very successful so far in doing that, probably not as successful as he wanted to be in the early stages. But it really looks like he's making progress there. And I think that people are happy to hear that.

Syria, it's complicated. I was actually very interested in your perspective on that. I do think, again, this idea of de-escalation in general, sort of writ large, is his goal. He's accomplishing that, at least in terms of bringing the temperature down for now, where these details end up. We'll see if the deal actually is hammered out and how good it looks in the final stages.
