Look, I think that Trump can walk and chew gum, certainly, but the headlines in the last several months have all been dominated by foreign policy.

And I don't know how you're going to connect Greenland to the fact that it costs people more money when they go to the grocery store.

And that continues to be the number one issue is affordability and people's lived experience in the economy.

And so I think that as much time as he's spending on foreign policy, he needs to spend the same amount or more time on the economy and putting forth

Real solutions that are going to connect to people's actual lives and stopping with the just global domination, which is what it feels like he's focused on.

I know.

And I agree with what Mark is saying.

And like it was like one morning we all just woke up and we had taken over Venezuela.

And it didn't feel like while it was like all of us who pay attention to every single beat that occurs, like most Americans, it felt like it sort of came out of nowhere.

And then very quickly the narrative became it was about oil and it was about the U.S.

coming in and taking over Venezuela.

And so there was a sinister motivation on top of it.

And then with Greenland, it just seems like this is him flexing.

And what does he actually want to do from this other than build out like the Trump brand and continue to take things over?

And so I think there's a disconnect to the extent that there are real reasons.

that he wants to go and do these things that are morally grounded or security grounded or whatever.

He's not communicating that either.

So I think it's a two-step problem.

I think it's the attention issue and people are really frustrated with the economy and feeling like they're struggling here at home and that that's not being dealt with.

And also like just these random things that are occurring that don't feel like there's either a buildup or a follow-through on.
