It may be the case that Donald Trump actually refuses his credentials, which is in the gift of the receiving country of an ambassador to do, but it's deeply unheard of. I think the last time you guys did it was some corruption scandal in Korea yesterday. in early 2000s. And before that, it was Iran, Cuba, and before that, it was Nazi Germany.

So for that to be considered at that extent actually is a major, major diplomatic move that we need to pay close attention to. It tells you something. It tells you that it's not business as usual for this incoming Trump administration and that they're just simply not going to put up with it anymore. They did that the first four years. They had terrible ambassadors.

They had terrible situations diplomatically. We don't need another of those situations here. And Lord Mandelson represents that.

It's a great question. I don't know that I've put together a list yet, but I sure would like to resurrect Stephen K. Bannon's old whiteboard from his West Wing office that I believe ended up getting buried in the White House storage in the basement after he left in 2017. There are so many things left on that which remain unticked. I think we have to get our heads around this.

the legal immigration issue into the United States because there is such a scam going on with all of that as well. I think it should be relatively prioritized. I also think, look, there are plenty of opportunities here. And I know that people like Elon Musk and Donald Trump are not going to miss out on these.

There are plenty of cultural opportunities as America reaches its 250th anniversary, as you know, you're hosting the World Cup. There are all these huge cultural events that are going to be taking place over that, you know, thousand plus days that you mentioned, that I think you have to embrace.

I think you have to inculcate Trumpism, MAGAism into the American psyche over these next four years, too. Let's have a McDonald Trump day, a national cheat day, a national Baja cheat day for America. Changing the culture is as important as changing the politics. And there's lots of things that can happen between now and then. But listen, you say there's four years. There's not.

There's like two years. You've got to get these things done this side of the midterms. That's right.

Thank you for having me, Andrew. It's not like we've talked enough over the last 24 hours, but it's great to see you again.

Yes. So, you know, a man from your neck of the woods once said trust, but verify. But I'm sort of more more the type that is just never trusting. So to answer that question very bluntly and in the same way that President Trump answered the question earlier on in the press conference about using economic or military force to secure Greenland or Panama. No, I cannot say that I trust this.
