If she becomes the choice the president pushed for, more than likely she will be. I don't see any reason why she shouldn't just fly right on through. I think what's going to be her biggest holdup is the paperwork. You're familiar with the paperwork. The paperwork process.

Yes. Oh, Beth, I like that. I'm going to use that from now on. But it is it's it takes forever. So she'll have to stay in this position for a little bit. But I don't think there's going to be any problem confirming her at all. I mean, we did just a real quick what you call opposition research just to make sure we wasn't missing anything. And she is she's solid.

I mean, obviously, she said a lot of stuff that the libs are going to blow out of proportion. But I don't think there's any issue at all getting her confirmed.

First of all, the president's approach was spot on by not trying to do one country at a time, but by doing all countries at a time, putting everybody on notice.

By the president focusing on everybody at once, putting everybody on notice and then telling the UK he wanted them to be first in, he delivered a trade deal that everybody else is gonna start looking to. You're gonna start seeing the dominoes fall now. Keep in mind, people need to do business with the United States more than we need to do business with them. Our economy has stood up.

Europe has stood up. The UK has stood up. China, all of Asia, and a lot of countries in Africa because of different wars around the world over different times. And we have subsidized them. Literally, we have sent trillions of dollars out of our economy and pushed their way. We've allowed manufacturing jobs to leave.

And President Trump's the first president to ever have truly the backbone to say we're going to do something and shake up things. What happened yesterday? The market responded ridiculously well. You're going to continue to see these trade deals come back in, and everybody in Oklahoma knew that.

Now, you take the left media, and they're going to tell you the doomsday is – and everything's falling and we're in recession. They sure didn't report about yesterday about how good the market did and about everybody reversing their comments about we're headed to a recession.

I hate raising taxes, to be honest with you. D.C. doesn't need any more taxes up here. We need to figure out how to control our spending. But if you want to break this down, right now that top bracket is around 37%. What they're proposing is going to 39.4 or 39.8, so might as well say 40%.
