1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: But it's got to Dan Mitchison, Now US correspondent, Dan,

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: Welcome to the show, Hi, Ryan, Now, Trump gave a

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: marathon press conference. I caught part of it and including

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: when that paper clip seemed to attack him on stage.

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. You would hate to be his press

6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 2: handler because you schedule ten minutes and he goes on

7
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 2: for two hours. And this kind of amounted, I think,

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: to the greatest hit list of his administration's accomplishments.

9
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 3: Today.

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 2: I saw he was kind of zigging and zagging through

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 2: a number of topics during this press briefing. And it

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 2: happened on the anniversary of his inauguration and also a

13
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 2: day before he delivers a key address to billionaires at

14
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 2: the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, And that's going to

15
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,639
Speaker 2: be interesting, Ryan, because you know, while he's there, he's

16
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 2: going to have a chance to confront the pushback that

17
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,839
Speaker 2: he's getting from a lot of Needo allies over his

18
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: approach to Greenland and the tariffs that he says that

19
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: are going to be implemented. Dan.

20
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,279
Speaker 1: Markets, they were closed Monday, obviously because you guys had

21
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: your public holiday, but they're open now and after the

22
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: sort of escalation in the last twenty four hours. They

23
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: responded Tuesday afternoon local time.

24
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: Well they did and had the worst day that we've

25
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 2: seen since last October. The Dow was down by nine

26
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,639
Speaker 2: hundred points, the S and P was off about two percent,

27
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: the Nasdaq slid about two and a half percent.

28
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 3: I'm looking at futures right now.

29
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: The market it will open at six thirty our time

30
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 2: Pacific time tomorrow morning. But now Nasdaq and the S

31
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 2: and PR all up, which is good news, and what

32
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 2: I think. I mean, there's a lot of concern. There's

33
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 2: a lot of unease about what's going on right now

34
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: with Greenland and and of course what Trump may or

35
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 2: may not say in Switzerland. But he also doubled down

36
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: on his efforts to impose this two hundred percent tariffs

37
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: on French wine champagne after the President of France reportedly

38
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: snubbed a seat on his board of peace on Gaza.

39
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: So there are so many balls in the air right now,

40
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: it's kind of hard to keep track of keep track

41
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: of all of Ryan.

42
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: What's your sense of it from where you're sitting. Do

43
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: you think this is posturing to do some kind of

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: deal over minerals? Do you think he's actually going to

45
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: take Greenland off the NATO country.

46
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 3: I don't know.

47
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 2: I mean, anybody that says they know what he's going

48
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: to do five minutes before he does it is just

49
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: taking a wild guess. I mean, he's repeatedly refused to

50
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: rule out military action to take over Greenland. Polls over

51
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 2: here in the US the majority of Americans say they

52
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 2: don't support that. It's even being dismissed by some Republican lawmakers.

53
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 2: But you know, he does not go with the flow

54
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 2: of the crowd. And as we found out in the past,

55
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: he's his own person, and he does what he wants

56
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 2: most of the time, and you know, the pulse and

57
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: his loyal followers seem to, you know, hold him to

58
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 2: it and seem to stay with him.

59
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: What's the most beautiful airport in America?

60
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 2: Dan, Well, the most beautiful airport has been crowned in

61
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: San Francisco.

62
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 3: It is the Terminal.

63
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: This was an international architecture firm and gave them a

64
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: design award. And in San Francisco's International Airport's Harvey Terminal

65
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: one which received the top honor. And they said, and

66
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 2: the Harvey Milk, for those that don't know, is a

67
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: famous gay rights leader that was gunned down, and it

68
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: highlights his political career and the impact on San Francisco

69
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: that it has.

70
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: There.

71
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: On Reddit, users are praising the terminal for the art

72
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 2: and how clean it is in the food and sort

73
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: of connecting our two countries here. This is kind of

74
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: a key gateway too in the US if you're coming

75
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: over from New Zealand and that airport has seen a

76
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 2: seven percent increase in Kiwi tourists in the last year.

77
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: And I think an airport makes, you know, a great

78
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: first impression when you're arriving somewhere for a holiday or

79
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: even business, and you know San Francisco International certainly does that.

80
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: So it's not just so it's the art as the food,

81
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: but it's also the cleanliness.

82
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: It's also the cleanliness.

83
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, which is I mean, you know, if you've

84
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: done some traveling around the world and you've seen a

85
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 2: few airports, you know there are some that are better

86
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 2: than others.

87
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 3: San Francisco certainly is at the top of its league.

88
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: Massively important because especially for US, because we do a

89
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: lot of long haul being at the bottom of the

90
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: world and once you get you know, you've been on

91
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: a plane for twelve hours you don't want to step

92
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: into filth, you know, and then hang around in filth

93
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: for three hours. So it's very important.

94
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: Clean airport, well, it is, and that's why to this day,

95
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: dun Eden's airport is my favorite in the Southern Hemisphere.

96
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 2: And I'm not being sarcastic, I'm not hand on heart.

97
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: Really okay, good to know. I'm sure they'll be stoked. Dan,

98
