Thank you.

Charlie, what you've done is incredible here. Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.

Yeah, it's great to be here, Charlie. Big fan and also big fan of the Hillsdale courses. I got to tell you, it's really good advice for folks to take those courses. It's way better than just sitting and watching some random TV show at night. The bottom line is that the president has been talking for a long time about

It's way better than just sitting and watching some random TV show at night. The bottom line is that the president has been talking for a long time about

about how unjust our trade deals have been and how bad for American ordinary folks, ordinary workers they are. I'll give you an example that there are huge tariffs on Harley-Davidson's like everywhere because it's a famous American product. And the European tariff on Harley-Davidson, they hate American output so much that they actually have a tariff on Harley-Davidson's

motorcycles, even if Harley-Davidson makes the motorcycle in Europe. Can you imagine? And so our trade deals are filled with things like this that are just unjust. And what President Trump showed in the last administration, where I was honored to be chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors, is that when you make better trade deals, then it helps blue-collar wages skyrocket.

And so after basically 16 years of the previous four presidential terms, Real wages in the U.S. declined. In the first three years of the Trump administration, real wages went up for the typical family by $6,500. And the reason was that we put America first. We put America workers first. And so what he's doing now is he's doubling down on that strategy, and he's doing it in Trump time.

And as you've – actually, I have an update, which is today I just – we've just got two more actually written requests for a trade deal with our trading partners that are way better for American workers. So we're up to 20 written requests and I think 36 negotiations. And U.S. Trade Representative Jameson Greer – is meeting with 14 trade ministers between now and tomorrow.

And so what's happened is that President Trump, with his tariffs, has put everybody on notice that, look, you got to be nice to American workers, respectful of our trade. And if you come to the table and do that, then we'll make a deal with you. And the deals are moving forward at breakneck speed.

Yeah, LNG is definitely part of the negotiations. It's interesting because I know how studious you are that you picked up on that. But one of the things that we're putting on the table in these negotiations is that we could agree to something called an offtake agreement.

And so the idea would be that right now, if you're Japan, you're kind of like hostage to whoever's going to sell you LNG and oil. And if we can successfully expand pipelines in Alaska, then we can fund those pipelines basically with commitments to sell the stuff to Japan because we have enough of it in the U.S. And that's really, really good for Japan.

And it makes them so happy to not have to be dependent on oil and natural gas from other sources or even to have some insurance against the volatility of the price of oil in free markets. That's so valuable to them that they're coming to the table with the best trade deal you ever saw. And I have one other thing to say about the trade deal, which is just – it shows the way President Trump thinks.
