Ich meine, ich denke, das ist... Ich würde gerne, dass du mehr darüber erzählen würdest, weil ich finde es so interessant. Wenn du die Art und Weise, wie er es managt, siehst du, dass er eine bestimmte Firma einbringt. Ich erinnere mich an eine, die Carrier heißt. Ja. Und er spricht mit dieser Firma und dann gehen sie raus und machen etwas. Und es ist, als ob er noch die Trump-Organisation runnt.
Ein paar Leute kommen rein und dann macht meine Organisation gut. Er denkt an die Wirtschaft als eine Gruppe von Firmen. Er nennt sie und fühlt sich sehr stolz darauf, dass er mit vielen CEOs auf einem ersten Namen ist. Während ich ein zentraler Wirtschaftsleiter bin, bin ich auch ein marktorientierter Wirtschaftsleiter. Ich bin nicht pro-Business, sondern pro-Markt.

Es sind die Märkte und die Kräfte der Kompetenz, die das erzeugen. And if that's the case, the role of government is to put in place a set of rules that help competition thrive. And if that's the case, the healthiest president is one who doesn't know the name of any CEOs. We've seen the opposite. This is a very, very centrally planned economy right now.

Okay, so I'm going to insist on my rule, Tim. Let's stop scoring this as who won and who lost.

This is the point that Trump can cut taxes on Americans from Washington. He doesn't need to go to Geneva. And the only reason that the Chinese government imposed taxes on the Chinese people was in retaliation. So it was almost obvious if he walked back... They're going to follow. They have no interest in imposing larger import taxes on the Chinese people.

Yeah, so I have, I think, two observations. One is about the budget deficit and what we used to call fiscal responsibility. Here's a basic fact. Over the last 50 years, the average revenues of the federal government have been about 16% of GDP. Over the last 50 years, outlays have never been 16% of GDP or lower. So you kind of see the problem.

We're spending more and there's never been an appetite for raising the revenue. So I think you would think about that as a revenue problem. There has never been the political taste to get outlays down anywhere near the 16% of GDP that we take in. And now they're looking to cut that. That seems ass backwards. Let me say the whole thing in a different way.
