00:00One more on the tariffs.
00:02Can you say what the latest thinking is on the start date?
00:05I know you were just in the Oval.
00:06Are they all going to take effect this week
00:08on the reciprocal tariffs?
00:10And whenever they start, is that enough time for companies
00:13and everyone involved to adjust to that start date?
00:15My understanding is that the tariff announcement
00:18will come tomorrow.
00:19They will be effective immediately.
00:21And the President has been teasing this
00:23for quite some time, as you know.
00:24He's talked a lot about April 2nd
00:26as Liberation Day in America.
00:27It would be taking place today, if not for April Fool's Day.
00:30But tomorrow will be the day.
00:32And he's been talking about it for a while.
00:34And as a result, you've seen these companies
00:36make commitments to investing right here in the United
00:38States.
00:39Jasmine.
00:39Thank you so much.
00:40I wonder, back on tariffs, what, if any, market indicators
00:45is the White House looking for to see if this tariffs
00:48plan is successful down the line?
00:50Well, look, the President has been
00:52asked to answer this question about the stock market
00:54and whether he's watching it.
00:55And I've said, and he has said, the market
00:57is a snapshot in time.
00:58Yesterday, Dow futures were up.
01:00And there's been a lot of talk about the market.
01:02And it was up yesterday.
01:04So, look, the President wants to ensure
01:06that all Americans make out well,
01:08particularly Main Street.
01:09That's the focus of these tariffs.
01:11But as I've said repeatedly, just like they did in their —
01:14just like they were in his first term,
01:15Wall Street will be just fine.
01:17Shelby.
01:17Thanks.
