And so I do think there's the people who have either decided that matters to them because it is disrupted.

So much of this is cumulative.

It's not just the Epstein files.

It's like, well, I didn't get the Epstein files and I don't get lower prices.

And people are basically like, I guess I get a secure border and like,
