President, while we were here with you,
a mistrial was declared in the Lindsay Clancy trial.
Have you been following that trial?
Have you watched it?
It's hard not to. It's on television so much.
It's hard not to follow it.
Followed it pretty much, but it's a shame.
It's a horrible tragedy. It's a horrible tragedy.
I see what's happened, and it looks like it's a hung jury,
and I think the judges said it's going to be a mistrial.
I assume there's going to be another trial.
It's a terrible situation.
Look, she did a horrible, horrible thing.
Can't be worse,
but you'll find out what the price to pay is.
There'll be a price. It's going to be mental institution
or jail or something,
but I guess they're going to go through another trial.
It's too bad.
One last question for you. Thanks so much.
Speaker Johnson sent members home early,
especially with the midterm elections coming up.
Do you feel that Republicans delivered everything you wanted?
Well, he can look. The House has been great.
You know, they sent the Save America Act up to the Senate.
We're waiting for the Senate.
So, the House has been great.
We got the great, big, beautiful bill.
That was, you know, just so people understand,
a lot of the things that we gave you,
we gave in the great, big, beautiful bill.
We don't have to do new later.
We put 17 different bills into that.
Lucky we did because it wouldn't get anything else passed,
but the House has been —
Speaker Johnson has done a fantastic job.
On beef, Mr. President,
the suspension of tariffs on ground beef imports —
where is that beef coming from? The White House —
Well, it's coming from different places.
From which country? It's coming from Argentina.
It's coming from Brazil.
It's coming from a couple of other places.
We have our inspectors down. It's very clean.
It's very good.
And as soon as these people — you know,
their herds are increasing.
Their herd decreased very, very substantially
during the Biden years, during the Biden administration.
But even from an environmental standpoint —
you know, they wanted to decrease your herds
for environmental reasons.
You believe that one?
So, we're building up the herds.
The farmers — the ranchers are building up their herds.
To follow up on that, Mr. President,
you had said that importers had agreed
that ground beef would be sold at 25 percent
below market prices.
So, are those countries only Argentina and Brazil?
Are there other countries that agree with that?
Well, there could be other countries,
but right now it's primarily Argentina and Brazil.
But there could be other countries.
And we're doing it in a very limited fashion
because our ranchers can handle it.
But our ranchers really needed a little bit of help.
And our ranchers want the prices to be down, too.
They want to see the prices come down.
