Yes. A hundred percent. And when you, when you think about what over the weekend, when, when, when we thought, you know, suddenly, uh, Apple and, um, These other tech businesses are going to get the exemption. When I talk to other business people, immediately they're like, damn, who are our lobbyists? How do we get to Mar-a-Lago?

And as confusing as Trump's messaging has been, he's had one consistent message to him. I've got my views, but I'm flexible. Come on down to Mar-a-Lago and maybe we can make a deal. And that's what it is. Right. We even I've talked about this before. The five million dollar one on one meeting you can have with him. The one on one candlelight dinner you can go to at Mar-a-Lago.

And each of those people in the tech universe are vying to stay closer and closer to him. You know, people have said, like, why does Jeff Bezos even want to own The Washington Post? He's not interested in it. Jeff Bezos owning the Washington Post is the most valuable thing he can do to stay close to Trump.

Because as much as Trump likes lining his pockets with money, which tons of people are willing to do for him, he cares so, so much about the press. He cares so, so much about what the Washington Post has to say about him. And Jeff Bezos having any ability or an outsized ability to influence that media outlet, that's a huge value to Trump. And we see Trump is about what is in it.

How does this advantage him? And that's how he makes decisions.

He's got, you know what though, Tim? Shame on them. Totally. Especially Wall Street guys. They knew him. So when we've had to watch Howard Lutnick say, let Trump be the business guy that he is, art of the deal. Yeah, that's what he's doing. And any person who works at any investment bank in New York knows exactly the business guy that he was, right?

When he was in business, when he was in business, Jimmy Morgan didn't do business with him. Goldman Sachs didn't do business with him. Morgan Stanley didn't. My bank, Deutsche Bank, compared to those banks is like the dog track of banks. They were willing to do business with him and find a contractor, find a counterparty. He never stood up to his deals, right? Never.
