00:00So since Trump's presidency and the recently imposed tariffs,
00:03do you think you're less likely to buy emerging products?
00:06I think I am, yeah.
00:08My answer would be yes, simply.
00:10If anything, it, it, nah, yes.
00:14Um, I'm certainly less inclined to buy a Tesla.
00:16Um, not that they can really do that.
00:18But yeah, I just, I think that I'm more than ever inclined to support, you know,
00:22Australian, you know, local homegrown stuff,
00:25and just not really support the entire catastrophe
00:29was going on in the United States.
00:30Yeah.
00:31I think it's definitely putting pressure on people to think about where they're buying
00:35and what country they're buying from,
00:37especially because the burden amount falls on us to risk,
00:41aren't Trump in the America, so yes.
00:45There is an aspect to it that makes me probably give it some thought
00:50because I don't agree with what's happened.
00:52I think it makes no sense.
00:54Uh, for, uh, the pre-markets, et cetera.
00:59So, uh, but as to how long any sort of protests I put forward personally would last,
01:06considering my want or need for certain things from, uh, America,
01:11I'm not so sure would we in that contest.
01:14In imposing the tariffs, he had broken all the rules of the free trade law
01:19and all of those countries that we have things in common with.
01:24And in which we prosper.
