I don't think that's going to pass.
We just reported, John Bresnahan just reported that Chris Van Hollen, who represents Maryland, a huge, obviously a huge hub, huge bastion of federal workers, is going to put out his own
bill that does something similar, which to me signals that the Ron Johnson bill is not going to pass.
Democrats rather complaint is that the Ron John bill provides a slush fund of sorts and the president can decide who he wants to pay and who he doesn't want to pay.
Now, I personally do question whether
There is some risk in opposing that bill, obviously, because as your previous guests suggested, like this is a real life thing where people who are going to work every day are not getting paid and they're not going to go to work.
And Katie, as you and I know, the the aviation infrastructure in this country is is terrible.
You know, that's not great.
And if yeah.
And if the air traffic controllers are calling out in cities like Charlotte, Chicago, Atlanta, D.C., New York, big cities with big hub airports, we're going to have problems and especially approaching the Thanksgiving season.
Again, like Senator Scott, I support President Trump. We want to see him succeed. We want to see America succeed. But I ran in 2010 as part of the Tea Party movement because we were mortgaging our children's future. Back then, we experienced our first deficit in excess of a trillion dollars under Obama, but we were $14 trillion in debt. Now we're approaching $37 trillion in debt.

Look, I do think this is an olive branch by the Europeans and Ursula to come to the negotiating table, which is what Trump wanted.

And the significant thing, I think the stock market, when it opens on Tuesday morning, remember tomorrow is a big holiday, I think investors will be happy to hear this news because it means that these tariffs that were supposed to be imposed as early as next week, now if I heard the president correctly, it's going to be another month delay on those. That gives some time for negotiation.
