Ultimately, we believe the real fruit that will come from this regime of tariffs is to put the Chinese Communist Party on an island because we have confidence in that. We would still rate the administration's first 100 days as an A. In every other respect, they've hit the ball out of the park.

And let me just say, if I may, kind of looking ahead to the next 100 days, the success of the first 100 days will really hinge upon the ability of Congress as soon as it possibly can to pass the reconciliation bill so that we can codify some of these successes.

There is a chance, but you know, I'm going to be honest. It's what we have to be at the Heritage Foundation. The thin majority in the House, the non-filibuster proof majority in the Senate for Republicans means that both Speaker Johnson and Leader Thune have a very, very narrow path to walk.

At Heritage, we're trying to give them the air cover to be as aggressive as possible, hopefully get to a trillion and a half dollars in spending cuts.

Ultimately, Megan, I do think there's a chance. What we're trying to do at Heritage is encourage our friends in Congress to get this done as quickly as possible, because what the American people are looking for is some certainty about all of these questions.

New process, that's what everybody calls it. I think the bigger picture, though, is to go back to the mandate that came out of the election and that data that you pointed to earlier, 56% of people want this issue dealt with.
