RACHEL CAMPOS-DUFFY (CO-HOST): This feels very different, this Davos. Usually, as you mentioned, Joey, we mock all the private planes that come into Davos because, of course, this is the elite globalist crowd that will tell you, 'you can't travel in your car, you shouldn't take a plane,' and actually wants to limit your ability to take long-haul flights as they fly in privately. But it feels like even though this meeting has been going on for a couple days and speeches have been made and interviews have been done, it feels like nothing starts until President Trump arrives — until daddy's home, as so many people say. And so this also feels very different from other years. Just think about the anticipation, the stakes that are going to be made here, just with the presence of President Trump. Nothing starts until he arrives. 

Just one year ago, or a year and a half ago, when President Biden was in, this was a sleepy Joe. Here you have this global conference where President Trump is about to blow it up in terms of his negotiations and stands, and yet nothing starts until he arrives. It is a new day. America is the center of everything. President Trump is the leader that everyone is — that everything hinges on. That is not the way things were under Joe Biden.
