THE PRESIDENT: Well, thank you very much, everybody. A lot of progress is being made, as you see. And we’re reopening our country, and it’s very exciting. And it should have never happened. This plague should never have happened. It could have been stopped, but people chose not to stop it. It’s a very sad thing for the world – 184 countries, at least.
But it’s a great honor to have you with us, friends of mine who have been truly great business leaders and are great business leaders. And you’re opening up your company again too, if you think about it, right? You’re, sort of, doing a reopening.
But they’re great companies, and they'll do very well – hopefully better than ever before. And that's what we're seeing. We're seeing tremendous pent-up demand. And it's a beautiful thing to see.
…
MR. KUDLOW: Thank you. I feel great. Thank you, Mr. President. I can feel it very much.
THE PRESIDENT: Yeah. Yeah. I can feel the demand. It's – it’s going to be really fantastic.
Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you.
