- 0:00Speaker 1: The trum administration also saying that this is far from over.
- 0:02Speaker 1: They've already part of Justice has already sent notice they're
- 0:05Speaker 1: going to appeal. There is a sense that could end
- 0:08Speaker 1: up in the Supreme Court. And I am told that
- 0:10Speaker 1: there is no rethinking of strategy, at least not yet
- 0:14Speaker 1: from the President. I know there was some speculation last night,
- 0:16Speaker 1: some wishful thinking perhaps from some other Republicans I heard
- 0:19Speaker 1: from that this may be an off ramp for President Trump,
- 0:22Speaker 1: that you could blame the courts but then actually back
- 0:25Speaker 1: away from some of the tariffs because of the impact
- 0:28Speaker 1: on the markets, because of the impact potentially down the
- 0:30Speaker 1: road on the economy if these deals don't go through
- 0:33Speaker 1: and we start seeing supply chain issues and the like.
- 0:35Speaker 1: But this is Joe, as you well know. Some of
- 0:37Speaker 1: the president has believed it for a very long time,
- 0:39Speaker 1: and at least now I'm told he doesn't planned altercourse.
- 0:43Speaker 2: So I'm going to say this slowly so our billionaire
- 0:47Speaker 2: friends on Wall Street and our multi millionaire friends on
- 0:52Speaker 2: Wall Street who trade every day can understand it. You
- 0:59Speaker 2: thought that Donald Trump was just talking when he kept
- 1:03Speaker 2: campaigning and promising to provide tariffs, He wasn't he's been
- 1:09Speaker 2: saying that since nineteen eighty seven, and I have it
- 1:12Speaker 2: on very good authority that people that are saying Donald
- 1:17Speaker 2: Trump is backing down on tariffs and there's an off ramp,
- 1:22Speaker 2: that Donald Trump does not believe there is an off
- 1:24Speaker 2: ramp for tariffs, and people running around saying that he
- 1:28Speaker 2: always backs down or he chickens out. Why don't you
- 1:31Speaker 2: just invite him to put more tariffs on more countries.
- 1:36Speaker 2: He's not backing down on tariffs. It is one of
- 1:40Speaker 2: the driving forces of his political life and his political being.
- 1:46Speaker 2: There is no offram. All right, let me say that again.
- 1:50Speaker 2: There is no off ram.
- 1:51Speaker 3: He is going to continue looking for opportunities to put
- 1:57Speaker 3: tariffs on other countries that he believes have an unfair
- 2:01Speaker 3: trade advantage on us, whether we believe it, whether Wall
- 2:04Speaker 3: Street traders believe it or not, whether economists believe it
- 2:08Speaker 3: or not.
- 2:08Speaker 2: There is no offerd. Okay, well, I just these are
- 2:13Speaker 2: supposed to be the smartest financial mindset world. They're four frove.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I keep misweeding him. There's not the same. There's not
- 2:19Speaker 2: an off ramp on this. He believes in tariffs. He's
- 2:23Speaker 2: going he's going to continue to believe in tariffs and
- 2:26Speaker 2: saying that he's chicking chickening out, or that there's an
- 2:29Speaker 2: off ramp on tariffs. As Jonathan said, it's wishful thinking.
