So I think there have been some breakthroughs. I would commend President Putin for all he did today on that call to move his country close to a final peace deal. And I would say and I would give all the credit to President Trump, his election, peace through strength. The perception that there are no alternatives, that a good peace, a lasting peace, a durable peace is important for both sides.

And the president was, you know, it's I can't I can't understate or I can't pardon me. I can't overstate how compelling he was on this call. He was he was he's a natural born leader, Sean, and he demonstrated that today.

Yeah, Kristen, and you get to it. Let's just start with Trump himself, that 47% job approval rating. Two ways of looking at this. First of all, if you compare Trump to every recent president this point after coming into office, Trump's number here is the lowest, significantly the lowest of any of his modern predecessors, except Donald Trump in his first term. He was at 40% at this point in 2017.

Joining us is Forbes media chairman and editor in chief, Steve Forbes. Welcome, Mr. Forbes. I actually stopped looking at the market. I've been watching Silence of the Lambs. Yes, sir, you too. I've been watching Silence of the Lambs because it's less scary for me than looking at the stock market.

Now we have President Trump back. He has a great team in place. He has willing partners in the House and Senate, unified government. The adults are back in the room, okay? And we are going to turn this economy around. We need a little runway to do it. I keep using this metaphor of an aircraft carrier. You know, it took decades to get into the mess that we're in.

You don't turn an aircraft carrier on a dime, but you need miles of open ocean to do it. But we have begun that turn.
