Q Hello, Mr. President.
THE PRESIDENT: Hello. How are you? Okay. She’s good.
Q Do you have a special relationship with Mr. Arnault?
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I do. And he was so nice to me. And I said, “I’d love you to open up something in Texas or someplace in the U.S.” And he’s a great gentleman, a great businessman. And he’s really an artist. To me, Bernard is an artist. And what he’s done is incredible, not only here, but in terms of the branding — the world of brands. And it’s an honor to have him in Texas. And he’s going to be very happy.
Q Thank you. Tomorrow, there will be tariffs on European products. Why do you want to tax French wines and French cheese? And why won’t you tax Mr. Arnault’s handbags or champagne? For example —
THE PRESIDENT: Well, I can’t tax him because he moved to the United States. So he was —
Q Did you discuss it?
THE PRESIDENT: He was way ahead. I actually did discuss it. He has no tariffs whatsoever because he’s in the United States. So we’re very happy about that. Very happy.
Q What about the wines and the cheese? Why —
THE PRESIDENT: Well, that’s a different story, but —
Q Sure.
THE PRESIDENT: But they owe us a lot of money. Thank you very much.
Q Do you have confidence in Mick Mulvaney, Mr. President?
Q Did you watch Mick Mulvaney’s press conference, Mr. President?
THE PRESIDENT: No, I didn’t. I wasn’t able to see it.
Q Are you aware that he suggested that there was some sort of a quid pro quo involved in Ukraine?
THE PRESIDENT: No, I didn’t. I heard he — somebody said he did a very nice job.

Q Are you any closer to sending Anne Sacoolas back to the UK?
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you very much. Thank you.
