00:00I think that everyone's going to do well in this country because of tariffs.
00:08We have $7 trillion of investment already.
00:13You can go back many years, and for a whole year, they haven't had anywhere near that.
00:18Mostly, they'd be well under $1 trillion of investment.
00:21And we've got $7 trillion.
00:23We really started five weeks ago.
00:26And in just a few weeks, literally, we have $7 trillion, which is a record for a year.
00:31There's never been a year with that much.
00:33And that's coming in, I think, for two reasons.
00:35It's coming because of an election that people liked, and it's coming in because of tariffs.
00:40And if you look at Apple, Apple's going to start building here.
00:45Right now, they're in China mostly.
00:47$500 billion.
00:49We have the computer—all of the computer chip companies are coming in at levels that nobody's ever seen before, as you know.
00:57Jensen came in for $500 billion.
00:59You saw that.
01:00Great guy.
01:01Highly respected.
01:02Mr. Wei coming in for $200, $250 billion.
01:07Nobody's ever seen anything.
01:08And the auto companies are coming in.
01:11We can—I can name eight right now already auto plants that are either starting or about ready to start construction.
01:19There's never been any United Auto Workers and the non-union workers in the automobile industry.
01:25They love Trump, and I love them.
01:28Thank you all very much.
01:29Congratulations, Paul.
01:30Congratulations, Paul.
