Election day in a country that has had a fair and free vote for generations.
Where all the opposition parties are free to take power.
Where virtually everyone will accept the election result.
After my last year, it’s a history and a privilege I’m more grateful for than ever.

-Were reciprocal for other nations' tariffs
-Ok, were actually reciprocal for non-tariff barriers
-Nevermind, they're about closing trade deficits
-Aren't negotiable
-Ok, ARE negotiable, but only for cash
