Ten Priorities for Trump’s New Administration

The future president of the United States has announced a “new era” for the nation. I propose 10 goals that will make the next Trump administration as solid as the beginning of Metallica’s Load.

Return to Freedom

During the Biden administration, many things were lost: unity, prosperity, and the ability to navigate the world stage, among others. However, the main victim was freedom. Freedom is at the core of the American identity. Trump has the opportunity to revive the core tenet of America’s character and, as Reagan said, be “the keepers of the flame of liberty.” It is an opportunity to encourage people to pursue their dreams and their own paths and make the government stop behaving toward citizens like the parent of a teenager. The government will have the right to act like a parent when children are born through an official record, in duplicate, and with the governor’s signature. 

The Old Patriotism

People need to regain their pride in being American. The Democrats have fought against national identity and have spent four years humiliating the very soul of the American people — their sense of belonging to the nation, its history, and its symbols. Reclaiming American pride is paramount to feeling at home again. And we don’t have to invent anything new. It is old. It’s the old patriotism. And it still works. Raise your flag!

Tax Relief for the Middle Class

The Biden administration claimed to hate the rich — unless they were in the family — but who they really harassed were the middle class. Trump must slim down the government and ease the tax burden on families. Reagan’s tax prescription succeeded, among other things, in bringing inflation down from 13.5 percent to 4.1 percent in eight years. Personally, I would lower taxes for everyone except Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who gets off on paying fees.

Restore National Unity

Democrats have worked hard to divide the nation into sides — good and bad, black and white, rich and poor. Unite the nation. You don’t need your principles to mimic those of your opponent. Just restore commonality, starting with the human condition, and inspire Christian equality, the dignity of all men, and the pride of belonging to the nation. 

Security and the Rule of Law

Don’t be afraid to clean up the streets. Whatever the left says, no one is going to complain about living in a safer neighborhood. The championing of criminals and the drive to defund the police is one of the stupidest battles the left has fought in recent times.

International Diplomacy, Leadership, and Pacifism

Trump’s foreign policy is a major concern for Europeans. They fear that “America First” will translate into isolationism, and that the United States will disengage from global matters. The truth is that it is impossible for Trump to reach the levels of international irrelevance witnessed during the Biden era. The United States must return to being the leader of the Western world, and promote peace and conflict resolution while ceasing to contribute economically to the idiot leaders of the U.N. who want to cool the planet by blowing dollars. To achieve that leadership, the best thing to do is to get back to being strong on the inside (my personal trainer told me so).

Continue to Fight the Culture War

It will now be tempting to focus on management and governing and put aside the cultural battle that has allowed Trump, in part, to win elections. This would be a mistake. We must raise every statue that Democrats have toppled, promote a radical opposition to Wokism (which died in this election), and proudly display the badges of classical conservatism. We must smash the ideas that impoverish the nation, that make us worse people, and that have brought us to this point.

Cleanup Education and Culture

The two great sources of moral decline are education and culture. Universities are factories churning out Wokists and stupid anti-Semites, and Hollywood is as ideologically unsupportable as an Al Gore documentary. I have no idea how you fix that, but it’s obvious that if you don’t do something, that breeding ground will become poisonous as soon as the next election approaches. 

A New Environmental Conservatism

Climate policies are ruinous and stupid. Eliminating them should be a priority. But Trump has the opportunity this time to promote a new conservative environmentalism, based on the real world and the need to preserve the environment. But also based on the common sense wisdom of agricultural workers across the country and the importance of promoting a clean world without green taxes, climate religion, or all that highly polluting progressive garbage.

Fostering an Appreciation for Wealth Building

Wealth is good. We should repeat that mantra every day and put it on the walls of schools. And capitalism is the most efficient path to prosperity. Wealth and poverty are like beauty and ugliness — no one, except a progressive, would dream of claiming that it is handsome people’s fault that there are ugly people.
