00:00...to be interviewed, as you know, if you're a journalist, but I would like to see it.
00:04Add on tariffs. Brazil, Mexico, and Latin America are getting closer to China.
00:08And they say it's partly because of the tariffs you're imposing in those countries.
00:11Are you concerned about them getting closer to China?
00:14No, not at all. I'm not concerned at all. They can do what they want.
00:18You know, none of them are doing very well.
00:20And what we're doing in terms of economics, we're blowing everyone away, including China.
00:25We're doing better than any other country in the world right now.
00:28Now, Brazil has been a horrible trading partner in terms of tariffs.
00:34As you know, they charge us tremendous tariffs, far, far more than we were charging them.
00:38We weren't charging anything, essentially.
00:41And Brazil has some very bad laws happening where they took a president and they put him in jail,
00:46or they're trying to jail him. And I happen to know the man.
00:49And I will tell you, I'm pretty good at people. I think he's an honest man.
00:53And I think what they've done, this is an electric, this is really a political execution
00:58that they're trying to do with Bolsonaro. I think that's terrible.
01:01But they also treated us very badly as trading partners for many, many years.
01:06One of the worst, one of the worst countries on earth for that.
01:09They charged tremendous tariffs and they made it very difficult to do anything.
01:13So now they're being charged 50% tariffs and they're not happy, but that's the way it goes.
01:19Mr. President, Mr. President.
