00:00The secondary tariffs on Iran and we'll probably give it a couple of weeks and if we don't
00:06see any progress, we're going to put them on.
00:08We're not putting them on right now, but if you remember, I did that six years ago and
00:14it worked very well, to put it mildly, and if the election weren't rigged, you would
00:22have a situation where there would be no problem with Iran today, but it was.
00:26Biden didn't know what he was doing, obviously, and we have a very rough situation in the
00:33Middle East because of that.
00:35You ended up with October 7th, and you would have never had October 7th, and you would
00:39have never had Russia going into Ukraine likewise, but we're going to make a decision on secondary
00:45tariffs on Iran based on whether or not they're going to make a deal.
00:48If they're going to make a deal, then we're never going to put secondary tariffs on.
00:54We're going to hope they have a great, long, and successful life as a country, but we'll
01:01see what happens.
01:02It's very, very interesting.
01:05I can't imagine them doing anything else but making a deal.
01:09I would prefer a deal to the other alternative, which I think everybody in this plane knows
01:15what that is, and that's not going to be pretty, and I do not prefer that.
