00:00Thank you, Caroline. Given the fact that this is on the trade letters, given the fact that the

00:06President put in into effect the tariffs on April 2nd and then put the pause into place,

00:13is the President at all concerned that these countries that are receiving the letters won't

00:18take them seriously because the deadline seems to have shifted already and may shift again?

00:23They will take the letters seriously because they have taken the President seriously and

00:27that's why the President's phone, I can tell you, rings off the hook from world leaders all the time

00:33who are begging him to come to a deal. And this administration is working hard to ensure those

00:40deals are in the best interest of the American people. And this delay, again, is in the best

00:44interest of the American people. And you all will continue to see these letters released on the

00:48President's Truth Social. And we will see you all later. Thank you, guys.
