And I use them for national defense. I ended. Of the eight wars I ended, I would say five or six were ended because of tariffs. I'll give you an example. If you take a look at India and Pakistan, they started to fight. They're two nuclear nations. They were shooting each other. Eight planes were shot down. There was seven. Now it was eight because the one that was sort of shut down is now abandoned. And eight planes we shot down. And I said, listen, if you guys are going to fight, I'm going to put tariffs on you. And they both went, you know, they were not happy about that. And within 24 hours I settled the war. If I didn't have tariffs, I wouldn't have been able to settle that war. So it's great national defense and you have to be quick moving. (18:56–19:25)
