1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: President Trump is continuing to move forward with tariffs. Why 2 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: he's wanting to put the American workers first. The White 3 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,600 Speaker 1: House putting the world on notice with new threats, tariffs 4 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: that are targeting our allies, the European Union, Canada, and Mexico. 5 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,040 Speaker 1: The White House unveiling a fifty percent tariff, for example, 6 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: against Brazil. Now, of course, the left is freaking out 7 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: over Donald Trump and what he's doing, which is exactly 8 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: why I want to explain it to you so you 9 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: understand what's really going on. And the White House decided 10 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 1: it was important to send out asset to the media 11 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 1: to talk about what these tariffs mean and what they 12 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,480 Speaker 1: can expect moving forward. Take a listen to the White 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: House's strategy on ABC. 14 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 2: Well. 15 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 3: As you know, a lot of economists say that the 16 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 3: inflation will be coming, and that there was there were 17 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 3: certainly a lot of exports that were I mean imports 18 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 3: that were brought in in the anticipation the tariffs would 19 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 3: be placed. But let me let me ask you about 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 3: one new set of terror city announced on Brazil. Fifty 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 3: percent new tariff on Brazil. Brazil had a six point 22 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 3: eight billion dollar surplus last year. In fact, the US 23 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 3: hasn't had a trade deficit with Brazil since two thousand 24 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: and seven, I mean almost two decades, So why why 25 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 3: why are we putting a punishing fifty percent tariff on Brazil. 26 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 4: Well, bottom line is the President has been very frustrated 27 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 4: with negotiations with Brazil and also with the actions of 28 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 4: Brazil in the end, though you know, we're trying to 29 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 4: put America first. I think that a lot of people 30 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 4: when I'm talking to negotiators from other countries, at some 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 4: point they'll say, what. 32 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: Did we do wrong? 33 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 4: And what I'm trying to get. The message we're all 34 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 4: tried to get across is this is about America getting 35 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 4: yourself ready for the Golden Age, by getting our house 36 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 4: at order, by getting our tariff and trade policy and 37 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 4: tax policy exactly where it needs to be for a 38 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 4: Golden Age. And normally it's not necessarily about a specific country, 39 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 4: but with Brazil it is. Actions have shocked the President 40 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 4: at times, and he's made none clear about that. 41 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 3: But I don't understand how you're saying it's about America, 42 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: because the President has made it quite clear that what 43 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 3: he's upset about is how the Brazilian Supreme Court has 44 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 3: handled the criminal case involving former President Balsonaro. 45 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 4: I mean with you, what I'm saying is that what 46 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 4: I've been saying with most countries was that it's really 47 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 4: about us getting the tariff's in order. And I think 48 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 4: that this teriff for Brazil is a lot higher because 49 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 4: of the President's frustration with Balsonaro and the fact that 50 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 4: Bolsonnaro himself, you know. 51 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: Anyway, but can you explain to me because I find 52 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: it confusing here on what authority does the president? 53 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 5: By the way, can we just pause? Isn't it amazing 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 5: how ABC News is. 55 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: Like, well, I find it a bit confusing that the 56 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: president United States of America is doing what the President 57 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: of the United States of America said he was going 58 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: to do. And then they're like, well, hold on, Brazil 59 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: is this and is it really about tariffs or is 60 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: it about that? And we were finding this very confusing, 61 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: and we feel like it shouldn't be so confusing that 62 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: the president of the United States of America again is 63 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: doing exactly what he said he was going to do. 64 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 5: It shouldn't be confusing at all. 65 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: In fact, it should seem completely normal that the president 66 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 1: United States of America is doing exactly what the President 67 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: of United States of America. 68 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 5: Said he was going to do. 69 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 1: And yet they're always acting like they're completely dumbfounded that 70 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: they're just in like complete shock and all that the 71 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: President of the United States of America, Donald Trump is 72 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: doing exactly what the President United States of America said 73 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: he was going to do. Like if there's anything that 74 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: shouldn't be surprising to the media, especially in this second term, 75 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: is that the president says what he's going to do 76 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: and he's not messing around. He's made it clear to 77 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: our allies. You got a timeframe to get a deal done, 78 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: come to the table, get a deal done. You decide 79 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: not to get a deal done, that's on you. It's 80 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: not going to be good. It's gonna be bad. You 81 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: choose what you want to do. Do you want to 82 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: get a deal done or do you not want to 83 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: get a deal done? Like it's just that simple. What 84 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: is it that you want to do? And even if 85 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: you are an ally of the United States of America 86 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: and you've been taking advantage of us. I went on 87 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: TV other day in Australia on on Channel seven, and 88 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: I also do this the other day on Good Morning Britain. 89 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 5: In the UK, and they're. 90 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: Like acting like what Donald Trump is doing is so shocking. 91 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: And what I said was over and over again was 92 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: the same thing. Guys, This is not complicated. The President 93 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: of the United States of America told you that he meant business. 94 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: He said that he'd been taking advantage of for far 95 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: too long, that Americans have been taking advantage of and 96 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: you guys have been taking avanage. 97 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 5: So we're gonna fix it. 98 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna go in the opposite direction and we're gonna 99 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: get a better trade deal. We're gonna get a fair 100 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: trade deal. Like the President has been very very very 101 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 1: very clear on that. And so to think or imply 102 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: that it's gonna be any different, your dumb. He is 103 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,559 Speaker 1: shown very clearly over and over again he's not messing around. 104 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: He's shown that this is what he means, this is 105 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: what he believes, this is what he's going to do. 106 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 5: There's no great area here. 107 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: And if you don't believe him, including if you're an ally, 108 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: then it's gonna cost you more money. So you better 109 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: get a better deal like that. That's what they've been 110 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: saying over and over and over and over again. Like 111 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: you're like, you're gonna get a better deal if you. 112 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 5: Come to the table and get a deal done. Now, 113 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 5: he wants a fair deal. 114 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: He doesn't want us to be taking advantage of He 115 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: wants us to be a fair deal. That's all he's 116 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,799 Speaker 1: asked for from the very beginning. 117 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 5: Like, that's it. He just wants a fair deal. That's it. 118 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: Like that, that's the whole game, folks, Like that's everything, 119 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: that's the whole kit and kaboodle. 120 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 5: He wants a fair deal. You don't give him a 121 00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 5: fair deal. 122 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: We're now in the situation and you can hear ABC like, well, 123 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 1: we just can't understand it. 124 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 5: We just don't understand. How is this possible keep listening 125 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 5: and have. 126 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 3: To impost tariffs on a country because he doesn't like 127 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 3: what that country's judicial system is handling a specific case. 128 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, how is that a national defense emergency? 129 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 4: Or if he thinks of a national security threat that 130 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 4: he has the authority under a eput. 131 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,839 Speaker 3: So how is it a national security threat that you know, 132 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 3: how Brazil is handling the criminal case against this former president. 133 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: Well that's not the only thing. 134 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 4: That's not the only thing. 135 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 3: I mean, So what is it? I mean, I've asked 136 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 3: what it is? I mean, it seems that that's what 137 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: President Trump's talking about. He's talking about his anger and 138 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 3: his frustration. He's been quite candid about it, with a 139 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:39,559 Speaker 3: bolsnarrow case. 140 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: Right. 141 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 4: Well, the bottom line is that what we're doing, absolutely 142 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: collectively across every country is we're on shoring production in 143 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: the US to reduce the national emergency that is that 144 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 4: we have a massive trade deficit. This putting it at 145 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 4: risks should we need a production in the US because 146 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 4: of a national security crisis, And this is part of 147 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 4: an overall strategy to do that. 148 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: But again, as we've just established, we have a trade 149 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 3: surplus with Brazil, non a deficit, and we've had a 150 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 3: surplus with Brazil for eighteen years. 151 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 4: If you look at an overall strategy, if you don't 152 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 4: have an overall strategy for this, then they'll be tramshipping 153 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 4: at everything else and you won't achieve your objectives. 154 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: Again, they can badger as much as they want, and 155 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: that's exactly what the media is going to do every 156 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: time they want to find a reason why, they can. 157 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 5: Say this is a disaster, that this is unfair. 158 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: Notice ABC News there is literally acting like they are 159 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: on behalf talking on behalf of the Brazilian government. Like 160 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: they're not on the side of the United States of America, 161 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: they are clearly on the side of any other country. 162 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: They want Donald Trump to be a failure, They want 163 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: Donald Trump to lose. They want Donald Trump to be 164 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: blamed for everything that happens. It's possibly in any capacity. 165 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: Looks negative and apparently like they're not going to stop. 166 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: Folks like they're going to keep going anytime they can 167 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: blame Trump for anything. They are going to blame him 168 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: for anything. Every single time.

The Presence 214 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: made it clear that we are way too dependent on 215 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: foreign countries and it puts our national security at risk 216 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: on certain types of minerals and metals. 217 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 5: Et cetera. 218 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 1: And this was part of the back and forth on 219 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: the President talking about these new things, these utiffs. Now, 220 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: I think the present's very smart and the way that 221 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: he is handling this so far. 222 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 5: It's been a success. 223 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: Take a listen to what was said again on ABC. 224 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: Of course they're saying it's the worst thing in the world. 225 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 3: Let me ask you about the fifty percent tariff that 226 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: the President has imposed on copper imports. Copper, of course, 227 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 3: is a widely used in construction, industrial manufacturing, cars, mobile phones, 228 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 3: and the like. This is what the Wall Street Journal 229 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 3: had to say about these tariffs. Mister Trump is going 230 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 3: to make US firms pay fifty percent more for a 231 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 3: vital metal while they wait five or more years for 232 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 3: US sourcing. How does making it more expensive to build aircraft, 233 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: ships and ammunition promote national security? This is national's insecurity. 234 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 3: What's your response to the Wall Street Journal? 235 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: Right? 236 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 4: The bottom line is that if there is a type 237 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 4: of war, then we need to have the metals that 238 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 4: we need to produce American weapons, and copper is a 239 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 4: key component in many American weapons sets. And so as 240 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 4: we look forward to the threats that America faces, the 241 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 4: President decided that we have plenty of copper in the US, 242 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 4: but not enough copper production. That's why he's taken a 243 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 4: strong step. 244 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 3: But are you concerned about the effect of higher copper 245 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: prices before American manufacturing can get up to speed. 246 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 4: The fact is that that effect that you're just discussing 247 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 4: is something that you mentioned. That economist said, we're going 248 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 4: to be coming all year these effects and inflation is 249 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 4: way way down In fact, inflation in the US is 250 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 4: right about the same level as it is in Europe. Okay, 251 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 4: And so the tariffs have worked the way that we 252 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: said it, So I guess the expectation would be that 253 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 4: the countries and the people that are dumping into the 254 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 4: US would bear most of this tariff. 255 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: Again, you're dealing with the president who has said he 256 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: is going to continue to put Americans first. We're going 257 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: to put Americans first, no matter what, American workers first, 258 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: national security first. 259 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 5: That is what we are going to do. 260 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: And I absolutely love the fact that you've got a 261 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: president that's willing to make these really, really tough decisions. 262 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 5: And that's what it is. 263 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: The Present's willing to make a decision that is tough, 264 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: knowing that he has the backing and the support of 265 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: the American people. He's also willing to do things that 266 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: many other presents were not willing to do. They what 267 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: they really want to do is just kick it the 268 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: can down the road. There are these third rail issues 269 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: that it's described, and what are third rail issues? There 270 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: are issues that people say, hey, just don't go there, 271 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: don't touch it. The upside is not worth the pain 272 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: on the front end. So just don't do it. Whatever 273 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: you do, look the other way and just move on 274 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: past it. Don't reform real things. Kick the can. Let 275 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: that be somebody else's problem, right, I just let it 276 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: be someone else's issue. 277 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 5: And what the President ran on. 278 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: And what he said was is I'm not going to 279 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: kick the can on any of these things. I'm not 280 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 1: going to sit there and say we'll let somebody l 281 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 1: deal with it. That's not what we do here. We 282 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: are going to immediately get involved. We're going to immediately 283 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: stand up. We're going to immediately change and correct how 284 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: we are doing things. And we feel good about it 285 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: because the American people understand it, and it's a national 286 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: security issue. As you just heard, the President believes that 287 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: he's going to do it. 288 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 5: But there this also goes back to the core issue. 289 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: There are unfortunately far too many countries, for far too 290 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: long they were able to put tariffs on America and 291 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: hurt America while helping themselves tremendously. And the President said, 292 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: I'm not going to let you take advantage of us anymore. 293 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: It's that simple. I'm not going to let you take 294 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: advantage of us. That's an American first policy. That is 295 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: a policy that we should all be so proud of 296 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: that is a let's see that we should all be 297 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: so happy that we have a president's. 298 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 5: Going to do it. 299 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: And yes, there is going to be moments in the 300 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: market that are going to move in the opposite direction. 301 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: And by the way, we're going to talk about that 302 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: coming up in a moment, because this is a real 303 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: issue when it comes to the markets. And and we 304 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: have seen if you stayed in the markets right that 305 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: what was the saying that, like, you only lose if 306 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: you sell? And what happened when when all of these 307 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: tears are announced and the market took a huge dump, 308 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: what happened afterwards? 309 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 5: Pretty quickly afterwards. 310 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: The markets came roaring back and people made a lot 311 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: of money. By the way, I'm one of them. I 312 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: doubled down. I knew the president was going to do it. 313 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: I knew what he meant. I saw the market drop 314 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: on a lot of things. I took advantage of it 315 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: and invested because I knew that the president was going 316 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: to win. 317 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 5: And so I was very happy, very very happy that. 318 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: We have a present that not only does what he 319 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: says he was going to do, and it isn't going 320 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: to lie about it and tells you the truth, and 321 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: he's like, we're going to do this, like this is 322 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: what we are going to do, and he wasn't willing 323 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: to compromise on like that. Isn't that the best part 324 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: of all, Isn't that exactly what we should want? Is 325 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: the president that says they're so I'm gonna do and 326 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: I'm not going to back down, and I'm gonna stand 327 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: up for the American worker and I'm gonna keep going. 328 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: And a lot of people, by the way, these tariffs, 329 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: they've not been paying attention to what's going on. They 330 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: haven't been I go back to what happened a year ago, 331 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: and one year ago it's the assassination attempt anniversary of 332 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, and I think it was 333 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: pretty clear then God saved Donald Trump's life to do 334 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: exactly what he's doing now. I think God is using 335 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: Trump to lead our country back to greatness. And I 336 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: think to lead us back to greatness, there's gonna be 337 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: some really tough choices and tough fights they are. 338 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 5: Going to have to happen. 339 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: But when you look at this one year anniversary of 340 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, if you want to know how he's gonna 341 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 1: run this White House and what he's gonna do. He doesn't. 342 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: He understands. I think that God saved his life. I 343 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: think it's really a big difference between the forty fifth 344 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: president and the forty seventh president is there's a different 345 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: level of commitment now from this president to do tough 346 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 1: things because he understands that God saved his life. There 347 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: are so many around him that credit God for saving 348 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: the President. Then House Speaker Mike Johnson, by the way, 349 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: Majority Leader John Thune, and a slew of other leaders 350 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 1: in the Republican Party took the ex literally today to 351 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: remember this weekend, July thirteenth, and the role they believe 352 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: God played that day. Speaker Johnson said, one year ago today, 353 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 1: God miraculous. He spared the life of President Trump. He's 354 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: using him to lead our country back to greatness. He's 355 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: absolutely right. He shared the video of the moment Trump 356 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: was struck in the ear and the moment after in 357 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: which he pumped his fist to finally with that bloody face. 358 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 5: The Senate Leader. 359 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: John Thune, one year ago today, think to the grace 360 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: of God, President Trump survived in assassination. Attended Butler, Pennsylvania 361 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: on the Somber Anniversary, saying for peace in our nation, 362 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: around the world and for the loved ones, uh, he says. 363 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 5: And by the way, I couldn't agree with him more. 364 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: You look at one year and what this president's done 365 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: last year. You want to know he's fighting for He's 366 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: fighting for the American people. 367 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 5: That's what he's doing. 368 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: He is fighting for the for the forgotten men and 369 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: women who our government has been screwing for so long. 370 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: He's also fighting against people around the world. Vladimir Putiney 371 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: was ound about Ladimir Putin before he got an Air 372 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: Force one and injers Air Force Base. 373 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 5: Well, what he had to say about what's going on 374 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 5: with Putin in Ukraine. 375 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 2: You're going to be announcing us tomorrow. 376 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 5: Look at it and see what we will see tomorrow. 377 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 3: Okay, And we have the Secretary of General. 378 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 5: As you know, Europe has announced sanctions.

We don't like that. 383 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: So you're now talking about a president who's going to 384 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: do apparently what other presidents have not done. You gave 385 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: Vladimir Puttin a chance to go for peace. You try 386 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: to put it together Vladimir Putin, Unfortunately he's talking about 387 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: both sides of his mouth. The President's like, all right, well, 388 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: then there's gonna be consequences for that, and here's what 389 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna do moving forward.

Right, what's gonna happen today. He's 392 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: made it very clear what he's gonna do. He's not 393 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: messing around the White House coming out fifty percent tariffs 394 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: on copper imports. Trum has decided that it's time for 395 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: us to protect ourselves on a national security front. 396 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 5: He's not messing around. 397 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: We're looking at other tariffs with allies, the EU, Canada, etc. 398 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna chat about what that means for the markets 399 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 1: as well, because that is. 400 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 5: Something that's gonna affect all of us. 401 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: A good friend of mine, Kurt Elliott with Kurt Elliott 402 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: Precious Metals, is joining me now, and Kurt, I one, 403 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on, and I've got a lot 404 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: of questions I want to ask you tonight, Let's start 405 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: with the tariffs. First off, the copper tariffs that we're 406 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: hearing about that are at fifty percent, that's that can 407 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: obviously have. 408 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 5: A significant impact of the market. 409 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: What is all of this tariff talk doing when it 410 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: comes to the markets, and specifically you you deal with 411 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: precious metals gold and silver. We just saw a couple 412 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 1: of days ago headline that gold had reached an all 413 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: time you high, three thousand ounces. Since that headline came out, 414 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: it's up to three three hundred and change, and yet 415 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: silver still seems to be at thirty eight dollars announced 416 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: an amazing deal compared to where gold is. But yet 417 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: gold keeps going up and now silver is moving as well. 418 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 6: For is actually dramatically outperforming gold, which in the recent 419 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 6: oh last month or so, and so that I mean 420 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 6: that is like the biggest untold story for investors who 421 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 6: want to protect and preserve and grow and thrive in 422 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 6: this markets of complete uncertainty. 423 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: When you talk about it exploding the way that it has, 424 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: what are the factors, Kurt, that have made this this 425 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: market explode worldwide? When it comes to gold, I mean, 426 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: I've never seen it thirty three one hundred an ounce. 427 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: You have it as we're sitting here. I literally have 428 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: a gold eagle in my hand. I have one in 429 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: my office that's from nineteen thirty three. And if you 430 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: bought it in thirty three, it did not cost three 431 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: three hundred dollars. 432 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 2: No, it didn't. It was twenty bucks. Right. 433 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 6: So, so way back in the day when when gold 434 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 6: and the dollar were convertible, you know, prior to you know, 435 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 6: everything changing getting us off the gold standard, Nipson closing 436 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 6: the gold window, you could go to the store or 437 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 6: the bank and give them one ounce of gold or 438 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 6: a twenty dollar bill. It was equal, right, So to 439 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 6: me as an economist, it's like, okay, what would that 440 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 6: buy you? 441 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 2: Right? You always have to look at the purchasing power. 442 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 6: Well, back then, one ounce of gold or a twenty 443 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 6: dollars bill would have bought you a fin tailored men's. 444 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: Suit, shirt, die of belt, and shoes. Right. So fast 445 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 2: forward to today, you. 446 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 6: Can't even go to Chick fil A for twenty bucks, 447 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 6: but ye one ounce of gold at thirty three hundred 448 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 6: still buys you finally tailored men's suit, shirt, tie. 449 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 2: Belt, and shoes. 450 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 6: See, precious metals actually maintain your purchasing power over time, 451 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:24,120 Speaker 6: which to me is the perfect inflationary hedge when when 452 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 6: people are wondering, you know, all this talk about inflation 453 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 6: and boy to put families in America can't can't afford 454 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 6: to live and their their paycheck to paycheck. Well, if 455 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 6: you invest properly, at least you can overcome the inflationary 456 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 6: pressures where the dollar is collapsing, stocks aren't keeping up, 457 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 6: wages haven't been keeping up because of the past administration. 458 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 6: And so when we look at that, it's like, okay, 459 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 6: look at it as an insurance policy against a collapsing currency. 460 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 6: But in addition to that, you've got massive amounts of 461 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 6: growth and what we've seen already. Then to answer or 462 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 6: short little question, what you might long answer, sorry, is 463 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 6: everything that we ever buy. 464 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 2: Is a function of supplying demand. 465 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 6: Right, So, you've got central banks around the world which 466 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 6: are allocating not into hundreds, but thousands of tons of gold. 467 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 2: To be a backstop to their currency. 468 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 6: The world is changing, We're moving away from central banking 469 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,360 Speaker 6: as we know it. And on the silver front, it's 470 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 6: not just a financial metal like gold. It's used for manufacturing, 471 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 6: it's used for stolar it's used. 472 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 2: For nuclear power. 473 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 6: It's used in the military industrial complex a ton. It's 474 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 6: used for battery technology, electric vehicles, all electronics, Like every 475 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 6: single flat screen TV you see it best buy, right, that's. 476 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 2: Got silver in it. 477 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 6: So that's a diminishing supply. When you have low supply 478 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 6: and high demand, well then prices go up. To me, 479 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 6: that's the bottom line. 480 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: When I look at the market right now, and look, 481 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 1: I was talking about this earlier. With all the tariffs, 482 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: there some real big opportunities for investors. I believe President 483 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: Trump when he said he was going to do the tariffs, 484 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 1: and I played it, thank goodness, pretty well and was 485 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: able to utilize, you know, my investment strategy to my advantage. 486 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 1: I also have been a big fan of gold and 487 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: silver for a long time. I have a fair amount 488 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: of gold, thank goodness, I do, and silver. But let's 489 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: talk about silver for a second. Silver is saying that's 490 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: being used in virtually every important thing that we're building. 491 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: It's in so many different things, and you've got the 492 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: list that it will explain it. And yet we've seen 493 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: the price stay relatively low right now, which is phenomenal 494 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: for people that are looking long term and protections. 495 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 6: It is and you know, a few years ago when 496 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 6: we started heavily allocating into silver as a firm, it 497 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 6: was in the upper teens, literally eighteen dollars an ounce. 498 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 6: So in just a three and a half years it's doubled. 499 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 6: But and that's a great investment, right in three and 500 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 6: a half years. To have anything double would be incredible. 501 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 6: But the best is still yet to come because of 502 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 6: the world that we're living in, the increasing demand, the 503 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 6: diminishing supply. I mean, you're seeing projections now from economists everybody, 504 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,479 Speaker 6: from Goldman Sachs to people who follow the commodities markets, 505 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 6: to the trading desks around the world thinking silver could 506 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 6: be sixty to one hundred dollars nowns in the next 507 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 6: twelve months, all the way up into the mid one hundreds. 508 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 2: Well, when you. 509 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 6: Look at that, why it's not just a pie in 510 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 6: the sky projection. People in those worlds don't ever say 511 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,880 Speaker 6: pie in the sky things. When you're working for one 512 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 6: of these big firms, it's simply because they know that the. 513 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: Demand is there. 514 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,360 Speaker 6: And when you look at what some of the big 515 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 6: banks spend have they have massive short positions, and in fact, 516 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 6: they've been suppressing the price of silver for military industrial 517 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 6: complex for decades, literally for decades, and you have these 518 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 6: massive short positions, and so everybody listening, when you have 519 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 6: a short position, if the price goes up, you lose 520 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 6: money hand over fist. Right, Yes, you are betting the 521 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:12,360 Speaker 6: price is going. 522 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 2: To go down. 523 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 6: So just one day, in one day last week, four 524 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 6: hundred and eighty three million ounces of silver were shorted 525 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 6: in one day. Perspective, Yeah, to put that into perspective, 526 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 6: that's fifty seven percent of all of the global mining 527 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 6: production in one year. And there is not enough silver 528 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 6: to cover those short positions. So what we're probably going 529 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 6: to see in pretty short order is a massive short squeeze, 530 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 6: which is why these economists are saying silver is actually 531 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 6: about to sort. 532 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 2: But what's that going to do to the banks. 533 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 6: They're going to lose money handover fist, and they're already 534 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 6: under capitalized. 535 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 2: Banks are already under capitalized in. 536 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 6: America because coming off of COVID in four years of 537 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 6: the Biden administration, where the economy was stinky and they 538 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 6: had travel restrictions and mass mandates and mom and pop 539 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 6: businesses were shutting down everywhere. 540 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 2: It's like, why do banks fail? 541 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 6: Banks fail simply because they have more withdrawals coming out 542 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 6: so people can live than deposits going in. 543 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: So that's why banks are failing. 544 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 6: That's why we saw Silicon Valley and first you know 545 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 6: Republican Credit, Swiss and silver Gate and Signature Bank collapse 546 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 6: a couple of years ago because they had more withdrawals 547 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 6: coming out than deposits going in. Well, this time, with 548 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 6: banks undercapitalized in having this massive short position, I think 549 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 6: we could see bigger bank failures than the regional bank 550 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 6: crisis that we saw a couple of years ago. 551 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: Final question for you, and this deals with people that 552 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: maybe are listening tonight and they say, okay, look, I 553 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: want to be diversified. 554 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 5: I want to have not all my egs in one basket. 555 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: There's a lot of I just go say what it 556 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: is scumbag comings out there that fear monger and they 557 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: take advantage of people, especially seniors. They put they put 558 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: all your money in gold and silver. You guys at 559 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: kirk Elliot Pressure Nels would never do that. You never 560 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: say that you're you're a faith based Christian company. That's 561 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: why I love you guys and having you on. But 562 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 1: when you look at this, what should people be looking. 563 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 5: At right now? Should they just say, let's take a 564 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 5: look and see what there is. 565 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 6: I would look at silver first and foremost. I think 566 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 6: it's the most undervalued asset on the planet right now 567 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 6: compared to everything that's going on, and everything that we 568 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 6: just talked about is very bullish for the precious metals complex. Now, 569 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 6: not all gold is good gold, not all silver is 570 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 6: good silver. 571 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 2: So be very very careful. 572 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 6: For example, you know you you explained it very well 573 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 6: just a second ago. You watch any conservative podcast all 574 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 6: over the country, you're. 575 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,239 Speaker 2: Going to see a gold or silver commercial, right. 576 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 6: But a lot of these companies are putting people into collectibles. 577 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 2: There's some kind of a commemorative or it. 578 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 6: Has somebody's face on it we all know. 579 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: And love, and it's like, oh, this is going to 580 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: be great. No, this is the problem. 581 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 6: To me, I see these invoices from some of these 582 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 6: people that will never ever recover ever because when gold was, 583 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 6: when silver, sorry was in the twenty something dollars announce range, 584 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 6: I was looking at some of these, it's like people 585 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 6: were paying sixty seventy dollars an ounce. Well, nobody wants 586 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 6: those when it comes time to sell, except for the 587 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 6: company that was making a market for them. 588 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: If they were to. 589 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 6: Sell those back to a depository, they're going to get 590 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 6: melt value, which is less than spot price, because they're 591 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 6: just going to take those things and melt them into 592 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 6: a coiner of bar Right. So here's where you should 593 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 6: have been able to get silver for about thirty dollars 594 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 6: an ounce. When it gets up to seventy dollars an ounce, 595 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 6: all of our clients that bought bullion will have more 596 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 6: than doubled their investment, literally doubled. If you paid seventy 597 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 6: dollars an ounce back, then you're only breaking even. You're 598 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 6: only breaking even when silver hit seventy. I mean, that's 599 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 6: the disaster to me, and it makes me sick to 600 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 6: my stomach. 601 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 5: I want you guys to go visit the website.
