And so I think maybe she thinks that this is what Trump wants, to see her and for her to be out front and making headlines and being in the newspapers. But to your point, I think it's a bit over the top and not doing her or the administration any favors with these, the way that they're just sort of comically staged. Yeah.

Yeah, I mean... It's it's definitely the way that this has gone, the hysteria that's gone surrounded this over the last week or so with the market, you know, the way it's gone down can't be positive for Trump.

I mean, it just I'm sure his supporters are going to be, you know, when you look at the internals of these polls, most Republicans are going to stick with him on this and give him at least the benefit of the doubt and see how this plays out over the coming weeks and months. But and Democrats, you know, they hate him. They'll always hate him. They hate him for this.

even though some of them actually supported tariffs not too long ago. But we'll leave that aside for now. But I think independents are probably being, you know, this creates a lot of anxiety and nervousness. And and, you know, so I think it's probably a drag on his numbers overall. If you look at his readings on the economy and inflation, they are underwater. And again, that was the issue.

Yeah. And so he's he needs to, you know, I think this is another thing about the administration. When you talk about Doge, you talk about this. I think the administration, you know, they could have benefited from prepping the public for what, you know, and saying, look, here's the problem. Right. Lay it out and say, OK, here's what we're going to do about it.

And there's a, there's a benefit to that, but there's also the downside to that, which is that, you know, you get reactions from the media, you get reactions from Democrats, uh, things are portrayed, uh, If mistakes are made, those become bigger. And so in that sense, they just went ahead with the tariffs. I don't think the public was really prepared for what happened afterwards.
