Heโ€™s just taking out of his ass, yes, but he has others to figure the how and the terms for him. Or he can do the method he used, putting tariffs all over the world. Asking chatGPT lmao

For sure, but at least on that they were just being dumb about figuring out an amount to slot into a tax process that was already in place.

I don't know that they have a mechanism or instrument to tax any of this at any point. And I'd love to see them have Grok or ChatGPT or whatever design a loophole-free tax that targets some company of unknown origin shooting some footage in some location through some service provider or subsidiary and then post-producing that footage somewhere else and then showing that footage in cinemas, TV and streaming in some other location.
