And then I don't know to the degree which he is going to retaliate by putting tariffs on imported foodstuffs. The United States, it's not the largest producer of export food in volume, but it is in value. That's pretty amazing when you think we only have $335 million, $40 million, and China's got $1.4 billion.

But so what I'm getting at is half of everything we produce, we sell abroad and it's very pricey. It's things like high volume pistachios that are worth a lot of money or walnuts or processed cheese, things like that. It's not just grain, which is essential, corn or sorghum. But we have a lot of really specialty crops that the world likes.

And people are paranoid about that, especially because you can live without almonds and you can live without pistachios.

So if they think that they're going to hurt a particular sector of the American, and that's what they do, when they negotiate with Trump, they look at particular red state or areas that are his supporters and they want to target that type of commodity for these small towns and rural areas.

Well, Trump got 26%, I think, of the black vote and about 55% of the Hispanic male, maybe 48 in general. So there is a, part of that was cultural. In other words, they like a strong leader. Biden's mental and physical feebleness bothered them, of course. But they also, on cultural issues, they don't like the idea of biological males, crime issues.

open borders especially here people didn't like but there was also something about i don't want to say macho but there was the idea that you want a strong representative of the united states that embodies our confidence and and so if somebody they don't like optional military engagements in the middle east or anywhere but if some it's more of a jacksonian don't tread on me but no better friend no worse enemy that type of foreign policy appeals a lot to males but class-wise

The idea of bringing jobs back in the United States and having, say, a worker and a half for every job, I mean, two jobs for every worker rather than, you know, two workers for every job is what they want because it makes them... more valuable and prized and appreciated.

So this idea when Trump says, I brought in $3 trillion worth of foreign investment and in three years, most economists say for every $10 billion, some say 20, you get a million jobs. So if what he says is correct, you could see 30 or 40, 50 million jobs in the next decade. And that appeals to people. They'll say, you know what?

I can be a machine operator and I'll have three or four offers rather than have to go beg and humiliate myself to work at minimum wage part-time. And so it's kind of like a can-do. We want to get the country moving. We want to be preeminent in every field, military, food, oil, gas, everything. And that appeals to, I think, men in a strange way.

Well, he's a counter-revolutionary, so he's mapped out his counter-revolution. And he's got, as you know, more lower district court injunctions in the first two months than any president – I mean, than Biden had in four years or any other president. So – They are trying to do everything they can to stop him, and we're right at the abyss.
