Original quoteBut the reason there's no update is because there are no checks. It was never happening. It's a ridiculous idea. We're going to take money from you in tariffs and then recycle a little bit of it back running it through a government bureaucracy. Why not just not do the tariffs in the first place? It was ridiculous from the get go. It's not going to happen.
