Well, we see what happens with the Democrat majority. They expand government. Expand government. The problem, the reason we're in this trouble today, the reason we have a $34 trillion debt is because When the Democrats were there, you had the Inflation Reduction Act, you know, you have the CHIPS Act, you have all this infrastructure spending going on without regard to the consequence. I'll finish with one thing here. Yeah. Japan had 30 years of no growth because of their debt. We are heading to declining growth because of our debt. (05:45–05:57)
