these major areas where Trump has either already solved it like the border or he's putting major resources exactly where you'd want them to be. And is it true that Biden just was incompetent or he didn't have the vision to get this through or he didn't have Congress? Maybe that's the difference. But I'll tell you the big stuff that Trump is doing that would have long-term strategic impact to the country, they really seem right on point, like exactly what you and I would have said should be done. So I'm very impressed that Trump seems to be leading us into the golden age in all the right ways. You know, there's smaller stuff that I can find things to complain about like the extra Chinese students, etc., but overall, oh my god, Trump is pushing all the right competitive strategic buttons. And we didn't have that before. Nothing like that before.

Trump says about the magnets, you know, that we get from China but we're trying to make here. We're going to have a lot of magnets in a pretty short period of time. In fact, we'll have so many you won't know what to do with them. You'll have so many magnets, you won't know what to do with them. Every time he says something like that, it makes me laugh. He has such a distinct character and way of talking. There's just nobody who talks like him. Maybe never will be.

Here's what it feels like. What it feels like when you watch the Trump administration wisely and smartly go after one thing after another. I could throw tariffs in there too. Maybe it's too early, but it sure looks like the whole tariff thing is going to work, right? Is it too early? I don't know. Looks like it works. So it seems to me when you put all of these together, you know, the emphasis on ship building and AI and releasing energy and all that stuff, everything I've mentioned, doesn't it feel like the IQ of America has just doubled? Because you can look at any topic and you see that we're doing the smart thing that you do in that situation. Take Ukraine. Wasn't the smartest thing to do of the things that were possible to be done that we just stopped funding it and we turned it into a profit center. That was absolutely the smartest thing to do. No doubt about it. I can go on and list other Trump accomplishments, but if you were to look at them collectively, it's almost like the country's IQ doubled. We're suddenly doing all the smart things. Look at Washington DC. It won't be long, if it hasn't happened already, that everyone will admit how smart it was for Trump to go in hard against crime. Everyone will admit that eventually. You know, right now they have something to complain about, but after he's out of office, people are going to look at it and go, oh yeah, obviously we didn't want all that crime and he's the only one who did something about it. So it just feels like the country's IQ doubled. Just we just are doing all smart stuff. Yeah.

Now, I don't, again, that doesn't mean I agree with everything Trump does. We're not a cult, right? One of the things that makes Trump, in my opinion, the best president we've ever had, is that he's very keyed into the opinion of the base and the non-base as well. And so I believe that he benefits when we show skepticism about something like the 600,000 Chinese students. Doesn't mean he's going to change his mind, but I'll bet you that he would see either my opinion or Jack Posobiec's opinion and it will play a part. It will definitely make a difference that there are people he's heard from before who he will pause and say, okay, why is this person disagreeing? Like I need to listen to that. And he's really good at that. One of the things that everyone says about Trump, everyone, he's a great listener when you're there in person. That's what I experienced the same thing when I met him briefly. I left and the first thing I thought, my major impression and takeaway, he's a good listener. So it's a superpower.

I guess Trump is demanding a half a billion dollar settlement from Harvard. So that negotiation is ongoing. I believe Harvard offered some settlement that was less than that. And Trump must feel like he has the negotiating advantage and he definitely does. But half a billion from Harvard, will he actually get that half a billion? I don't know. Maybe.

So the Ukraine war of course continues to escalate within their borders. And smart people are saying that nothing good will happen toward peace until Zelensky and Putin get together and they're in the same room. Do you believe that Zelensky and Putin can ever be in the same room? Like what? That doesn't track. Now, I could see why if somebody lost a war, you know, they could be in the room with their enemy because, well, you lost the war. But if nobody lost the war and they're just trying to negotiate, these are two guys who really really want to kill each other. They want to kill each other. And I guarantee you both of them have spent extensive time looking over plans to kill the other one. Now apparently they haven't pulled the trigger on it or if they have it didn't work. But don't you believe that they've both put serious effort into killing literally killing the other one? How did those two guys sit in a room and say, hey, glad to meet you finally. Good job in that war. Hey, you did better than I thought. Should we talk about how to wind this thing down? Afterwards, we'll have some drinks. That's not going to happen. In what world do you think Zelensky and Putin are ever going to sit in the same room and work out a peace deal? So I'm going to make a prediction. I don't know which one, but the only way you're going to get to peace is one of these guys dies or leaves office, which might be the same thing, right? We might someday have peace, but not until one of them dies. And you know, I'm n
