Small businesses are apparently closing or expect to shut down from a lack of support. But if you look on Main Street, Brandon, if you pull up the fear-greed-index that I text you.

Yeah, so this is the first time I texted you, Brandon. This is the first time that I've seen the fear-greed-index indicate a... A little bit more greed. A month ago, fear was the resounding narrative in the markets right now. This is the first time I'm seeing greed, 69. If you scroll down, Elon Musk will like that number.

If you scroll down, you could see that I think it was the lowest I'd almost ever seen on the fear. It was almost a 2. 1 to 50 is on the fear side and then 51 to 100 is on the greed side. So Americans are basically saying, you know what, I'm not as scared as I was a month ago.

Well, listen, Trump is the Don Rickles of presidents. His ability to make abject, sort of high level, abstract ideas relatable is second to none. So in comedy, Vinny, you would know this, the term he's using is called personification. When you personify something, or some concept or some person, it boosts people's imagination and it simplifies complex ideas and it enhances the emotional impact.

So rather than talking about drug prices, he's like, let me tell you about my fat, amazing, brilliant, sloppy, smart, gross, amazing, gross friend. Incredibly wealthy. What a guy, what a loser, what a guy. The biggest loser. You know who did this better than anybody? It was Dave Chappelle. Do you remember on the Dave Chappelle show, he would... He would personify and humanize drugs and STDs.

He's like, hey, what's going on? Syphilis, man, I'm just out here burning people up. So, hey, what's up, herpes? Hey, I'm hanging out. So you turn these people into characters. Trump made drug prices funny and relatable. Remember the skit when Dave Chappelle talked about his white friend? He's like, yeah, you gotta watch out for these white guys hanging out with all these black gangs.

You never know what those white guys did.

No, no, no, no, Pat. Let me get to my point. Please do. The point is, we would not be talking about this if he didn't use personification about his fat friend. You don't think so? It would not be a main story. We would maybe... glance over a little bit. The fact that he talked about his fat friend and personified this.
