00:00He's got big problems.
00:01Go ahead.
00:01Mr. President, have you had any more outrage from the automakers?
00:04And are you reconsidering that at all?
00:07No, not at all.
00:08The automakers are going to make a lot of money,
00:11the American automakers or international automakers,
00:16if you're talking about they're going to build in the United States.
00:20The people that are going to make money are people that manufacture cars
00:24in the United States.
00:26Outside of the United States, that's going to be up to them.
00:29I don't care too much about that.
00:31But you have a lot of companies coming into the country to manufacture cars.
00:37As you know, the Auto Workers Union, I did great.
00:39I won Michigan by a lot.
00:42But the Auto Workers Union, they were fantastic to me.
00:44But now they're really fantastic.
00:46And even Sean Fain, who I don't know, but he obviously wasn't a supporter of mine.
00:52He's a Democrat.
00:53He said wonderful things about Donald Trump.
00:56He said, I can't believe this is finally happening.
00:58The people that make, manufacture automobiles in the United States
01:04are going to make money the likes of which they've never seen before.
01:08But beyond that, we have the computer companies, the chip companies,
01:12the pharmaceutical companies.
01:14We have lumber.
01:15We have everything, steel.
01:17They're all going to do really well as long as they do their product
01:21in the United States.
01:22Thank you very much.
