I think the biggest damage will be the trust level.

which is we could do it with you, but what's the guarantee it will stand the test of time?

That's what's being tested in Ukraine.

That's what's being tested in Greenland.

That's what's being tested on the tariffs.

That's what's being tested when the United States, you know, as somebody who was part of this, creating the trilateral between the United States, Japan, and Korea, which was the worst nightmare for China,

The Korean president and the Japanese prime minister just had a two-day state visit, and the United States was AWOL, wasn't even invited.

That tells you the cost of going alone.

And so I don't think it's thrown out, meaning it's over.

I understand why the Prime Minister of Canada would feel that way, having just been in Montreal last week.

I think being forthright with our traditional allies, here's the trust we have to build.

Both of us have a role to play.

I think that's the most important thing you can do.

How we construct NATO, how we construct our economic relationships, our political coordination in the G7, et cetera, roll those out.

That you can do and kind of reform them, not just hit a reset button, but reform them to better serve the future.

Reform, meaning you would not want everything to go back to just the way it was in 2016.

First of all, you can't wish these four years away no matter how much I want or maybe your audience wants.

You can't.

So the question is, and the biggest damage is going to be to the trust of the American word.

You have a president of the United States, and let's deal with Greenland.
