00:00Do I have anything to say?

00:01Based on the little – based on the insight that you have, do you have any indication

00:05when Secretary would have received a call from the President this morning, last night,

00:10anything?

00:11No, I can't – I can't reveal the nature of the details of any exchanges like that.

00:14Can I just – I just –

00:15All right.

00:16So now – yes, back to you in a moment.

00:17Matt is – are you – you're not ready?

00:20He's relaxing at this point.

00:21I – I –

00:22All right.

00:23That's fine.

00:24That helps me – that helps me know where we need to go.

00:26Yes, go ahead here.

00:27Can you help us understand why this reshuffle is happening?

00:30What it says about the Administration's policy priorities that these moves are taking place?

00:34I think what it says is what his first term said to people, is this is a man who is very

00:43Things also sometimes change.

00:45I'm not going to guess at the decisions President Trump makes.

00:49What we do know is the results of those decisions.

00:51And I've said a few times in this room, as people try to look at the minutiae of necessarily

00:57the why or how many of one thing or a piece of gossip in a newspaper, that what really

01:03matters is the end result and what gets delivered.

01:06And I think that it is – for all of us, whether it's any kind of business, is being able to

01:12be flexible in a dynamic, in a moment, when you feel the need to be flexible.

01:18Clearly this is the President's decision, and he made it for a reason, and I trust him,

01:21and the American people will see the results.

01:22All right.

01:23Yeah.

01:24Go ahead, please.
