f negotiations go well for the next six months and especially if we get something happening with China and all that needs to happen with China is that we agree on a pause while we work on a deal. That could be enough. A pause on tariffs until we work on a deal. So I feel like Trump is setting up the midterms really well. There should be a rate cut and there should be a whole bunch of tariff deals…
← Previous segment →ant voter ID? Like how do you possibly process that other than fraud and wanting to promote fraud? Because there's no normal Democrat who believes that black Americans can't get an ID. We've literally never found even one. So do they just sort of say to themselves, well as long as it's defeating the Nazis, it's okay. And then how normal would you be if you thought you were fighting Nazis? It wouldn't be very normal at all. So does anybody know? I've never asked any normal Democrat that question, but I can't believe that a normal person, no matter what side of the politics they're on, would a normal person think you shouldn't have ID to vote in America? I don't think so. Right? Doesn't it seem to you that the normal ones need to just sort of avoid the question? It's good for their team. So they probably like, "Well I'll worry about other things."

He wants to get that up to a million. But there was a bigger thing that was part of the executive order which might be helpful is that apparently our federal standards for these apprenticeships included a whole bunch of fragmented federal workforce entities doing their own thing. So it was a big confused duplicative process. And so a big part of the executive order is reducing the duplication and simplifying the whole how do you get an apprentice kind of thing. So that's perfect. So they want to identify workforce development and education programs that are ineffective and get rid of those and just basically make the system work for the first time or work better really.
At the same time you could think of this as more the realization that college isn't for everybody and that especially if we have more manufacturi

ng coming back to America, you're going to need lots of people who can just do practical things and they don't need to read Shakespeare to do it. So I'm glad the government sort of understands the reality of the world that way. However, it's even better. Google apparently has launched an ambitious program, this is according to Clean Technica, to train 100,000 electrical workers for the AI-powered…
