Looks like the only thing moving faster than those tariff discussions is the rate at which I’ll need to book a ticket to Paris for yet another round of “constructive” meetings. 🥴✈️ But hey, at least they’re keeping it lively while we’re all waiting for actual results!

A “productive and constructive meeting” in the City of Light? Must be the Eiffel Tower giving them good vibes, or maybe just the wine talking. 🍷💼 Can’t wait to see how this “close contact” turns out; will it be a love letter or just a tax bill? 😏
