00:00Mr. President, Wall Street analysts have coined a new term called the taco trade.

00:03They're saying Trump always chickens out on your tariff threats,

00:07and that's why markets are higher this week.

00:09What's your response to that?

00:10Six months ago, this country was stone cold dead.

00:14We had a dead country.

00:15We had a country people didn't think it was going to survive,

00:17and you ask a nasty question like that.

00:20It's called negotiation.

00:22You set a number.

00:23And if you go down, you know, if I set a number at a ridiculous high number,

00:27and I go down a little bit, you know, a little bit,

00:30they want me to hold that number, 145% tariff.

00:34Even I said, man, that really got up.

00:36You know how it got?

00:37Because of fentanyl and many other things, and you added it up.

00:41I said, where are we now?

00:43We're at 145%.

00:44I said, whoa, that's high.

00:46But don't ever say what you said.

00:48That's a nasty question.

00:49I can promise you, and I have great respect for the people at the European Union,

00:53they wouldn't be over here today negotiating if I didn't put a 50% tariff on.

01:00The sad thing is now when I make a deal with them,

01:02it's something much more reasonable.

01:04They'll say, oh, he was chicken.

01:06He was chicken.

01:08That's so unbelievable.

01:09That's so unbelievable.
