And one of the examples that I have is tariffs, right?

You look at the tariffs and Donald Trump was doing this to protect Americans.

American workers, they said, no, these companies, they're going to wind up passing these costs on to the consumers.

You're going to watch the price of everything that you want to go up.

The world is going to end.

The sky is going to start falling.

There's going to be things coming out of the sky.

All sorts of... Not what happened with tariffs.

Why don't we wait and see?

You know...

it was like appealing to me when i hear the president united states saying he wants to replace the income tax which i can't stand with tariffs right well you're going to pay more for things yes but if you're not going to be paying the income tax on every dollar that you make i would say that that's a pretty fair trade i'd like that trade because then essentially what's happening is you're paying a sales tax right so if the cost of goods and services increase right because of tariffs

If the cost of these things go up, that only impacts me when I buy those things, right?

I mean, it has to make sense.

So if let's say that, you know, a coffee mug that comes from China, right?

And I get along very well with China.

And you look at President Xi of China, I call him Winnie the Pooh.

They say, sir, you're not supposed to say that.

And I said to President Xi, if you don't want me to call you Winnie the Pooh, you have to stop looking like Winnie the Pooh and tell Christopher Robin I said hello and no more honey for you until you start behaving.

But if I have a coffee mug that comes from China,

Right.
