I think it's going to take time. And I think everybody wants to see some countries actually get some good trade negotiations because it's scary. And I totally understand that, too. But it's like I see the effort being made at a very fast and aggressive pace to try to get things undone in some cases, but also to push things forward.
The amount of debt we have is so staggering, and I don't want America to be the next Greece. I don't want us to come in irrelevant country. I've been blessed. I grew up in the 80s. I've lived a really good life in America that I think was a time where a lot of people, not everybody believes this, but a lot of people did prosper and felt this was a strong place, a strong economy.
And also a place that got along well, so that's certainly an area I think all sides of the aisle want to get back to. So, you know, I'm concerned, but again, I think a lot of these things that Trump's doing, it's like it's going to be unsettling for a little while.
It's going to be a bumpy thing while we transition as we try to adjust a global market to a new trade system that is, as Trump says, fairer to all parties, certainly to America. But I think I'm willing to deal with that unsteadiness and that bumpiness right now knowing that there is a plan and it's not just less. I mean, you just can't spend your way out of everything.
You have to at some point be like, you know, like I'm a homeowner. You know, you have to know, like, I can't do every project today. Sure, I'd love to do the yard, the landscaping, the gutters, the roof, the shingles, the windows. Right. But like you pick your spot. So, you know,
I think he's doing one thing at a time, and this is not going to be fixed tomorrow, but I think we're heading in a trajectory that will get America back in a better, stable place.
