00:00What kind of message is this sending? Is it going to be raising concerns?
00:05Well, I think it's going to be confirming concerns, if anything, because we saw a lot of this in Trump's first term.
00:12He's coming now back even more bold and with a lot of rhetoric that he doesn't seem to mind throwing out there, no matter of the impact.
00:21So I think what we're what we're seeing is what we need to expect after January 20th, when he's inaugurated, that any efforts he might have thought he was going to make to try to be less, you know, you know, bullying and less rhetorically driven.
00:39Any chance of him being a little calmer this time around? I think we just saw over the past 24 hours that won't be the case.
00:47We just have to get used to this and know that that's the way he starts things.
00:52But then if there's a real problem here, the professionals have to go in there and negotiate a solution to the problem.
00:59The rhetoric doesn't do that.
