00:00Hi, Mr. President.

00:01How's it going?

00:02We're in the process of landing.

00:03I didn't realize.

00:04Quite late.

00:05Is everything good?

00:06Yes, sir.

00:07We have a lot of good things happening in our country.

00:08I hope you enjoy the flight.

00:09Any questions?

00:10Yes, Mr. President.

00:11You have a call with Canada, sir.

00:12And after the call, you seem to be much more positive about Canada than you've been in

00:13the past.

00:14No, I just think, you know, I've always loved Canada.

00:15And we had a very good conversation.

00:16The Prime Minister, they've got an election going on.

00:17So we're going to meet after the election.

00:18On the pharma tariffs, Mr. President?

00:19You've been talking about the pharma tariffs and what to expect there.

00:32Are you going to exempt life-saving medications or what can we expect there?

00:36Well, we'll be announcing it soon, but we have to bring pharmaceuticals, drugs and pharmaceuticals

00:40back into our country.

00:41And what's the rate you're looking at?

00:4215 percent, 25?

00:43We're looking at a certain number that will be enough to get the drugs at the pharmaceutical

00:49companies, bringing their product into our country.

00:52I never want to have to rely on other countries for that, like we did at COVID.

00:58Mr. President?

00:59On the car tariffs and just the reciprocal tariffs, a lot of countries are making gestures,

01:04including Britain, which is talked about reducing digital services.

01:07They want to make deals.

01:08They want to make deals.

01:09They do.

01:10Are you in a mode or, you know, which model?

01:11Well, it's possible if we can get something for the deal.

01:12But, you know, we've been taken advantage of for 40 years.

01:14Maybe more.

01:15It's just not going to happen anymore.

01:16But, yeah, I'm certainly open to that.

01:17If we can do something, where we get something for it.

01:18Mr. President.

01:19Mr. President.

01:20Do you plan to...

01:21Would that happen before the tariffs are announced?

01:22No, probably later.

01:23Mr. President.

01:24During...

01:25It's a process.

01:26We're landing right now.

01:27Mr. President, do you plan to take Greenland by force?

01:28I'd love to take Greenland by force.

01:29I would love to take it.

01:30I would love to take it.

01:31I'm not going to take it by force.

01:32I'm not going to take it.

01:33No, probably later.

01:34It's a process.

01:35Do it probably later.

01:36We're landing right now.

01:37Mr. President, do you plan to take Greenland by force?

01:38Uh-oh.

01:39We're landing right now.

01:40Don't.

01:41I don't want to see anybody get hurt.

01:42We don't want to see you get hurt.

01:43Have a good time.

01:44Thank you, Mr. President.

01:45Good luck, everybody.

01:46Good luck.

01:47Sit down.
