00:00So since Trump's presidency and the recently imposed tariffs,

00:03do you think you're less likely to buy emerging products?

00:06I think I am, yeah.

00:08My answer would be yes, simply.

00:10If anything, it may. Yes.

00:14I'm certainly less inclined to buy a Tesla, not that they can really do that.

00:18But yeah, I just, I think that I'm more than ever inclined to support, you know,

00:22Australian, you know, local homegrown stuff and just not really support that

00:28entire catastrophe was going on in the United States, yeah.

00:31I think it's definitely putting pressure on people to think about where they're buying

00:35and what country they're buying from,

00:37especially because the burden now falls on us to rest our Trump in the America, so yes.

00:45There is an aspect to it that makes me probably give it some thought

00:50because I don't agree with what's happened.

00:52I think it makes no sense for the pre-markets, et cetera.

00:59So, but as to how long any sort of protests I put forward personally would last,

01:06considering my want or need for certain things from America,

01:11I'm not so sure would be in that contest.

01:14In imposing the tariffs, he had broken all the rules of the free trade law

01:19and all of those countries that we have things in common with and in which we prosper.
