Indefatigable Campaigning Making a Big Difference in the Foundational Battle Between Socialism and Capitalism

Relentless and Herculean campaigning by President Trump may well be turning the tide, raising enthusiasm, getting voters out, maintaining a positive and optimistic vision of the future. And defending his record because the lefty press will not. The economy is booming. America is the hottest economy in the world right now. Despite high gas prices, that are a problem for some people, the fact remains that consumers are spending rapidly, more than 10 percent, year on year, according to same store chain sales. A key measure. Businesses investing at the fastest rate since the Reagan 1980s. Technology advancements are charging through our whole economy. America is winning the global race for capital. Foreign investors are flocking to our shores, stock markets hovering near record highs, drug prices falling, oil now flowing from the Persian Gulf at pre-war levels. In an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” I raised these points and then directly asked the president , if he can pull off another big political upset? Can you beat the odds, carry the midterms? Here’s what he told me:“I have worked very hard. I’ve done 14 rallies in nine days, and it’s a lot.”In a normal election, an economic boom from low taxes, deregulation, and enormous energy abundance, would be sufficient to carry the incumbent party to victory. But midterm elections are strange animals. And the mainstream media refuses to report the economic boom from Mr. Trump’s free enterprise policies. There’s more to the booming economy than just gasoline prices. Though you wouldn’t know that from the lefty press. Nevertheless, Trumpian policies have created a million new jobs overall. Including 72,000 manufacturing jobs this year. Weekly unemployment claims, a key labor market measure, are at a nearly 60 year low. Construction jobs are rising. Meanwhile, climate change green new deal democrats want higher, not lower gasoline prices. Though they won’t admit it publicly. In fact, they don’t want gasoline or gasoline powered cars at all. And Mr. Trump is broadcasting that Democrat hypocrisy at every rally. Then there’s Medicare for All. Which means that the UAW in Abdul El-Sayed’s Michigan, and labor unions everywhere like their private health insurance, they will have to give it up under Medicare for all.Adding Insult to injury, the socialist program would give illegal immigrants healthcare paid for by hardworking taxpayers. The president is working on this message also. In the interview I urged him to make this case to the union voters and everyone else in Michigan, to help Mike Rogers defeat Dr. El-Sayed. Here’s what he told me: “You tell the union, you tell the auto workers they’re going to lose their health care plan and they’re going to go in. It’s socialized medicine.” Mr. Trump added: “And it’s never worked,” noting that “It’s expensive.” He pointed out that “people that have cancer,” they can’t see their doctors “for nine months”This is no ordinary election. This is foundational. This is Democratic socialists versus Republican free enterprisers. This is the rule of law versus tearing down constitutional institutions. This is open borders versus peace through strength. At the close of the interview, I asked the president if his closing message would not only be about the economic boom and maintaining free enterprise prosperity. But would he be positive and optimistic?I asked: “Will you end this campaign on an optimistic note? On a pro-growth note? Freedom free enterprise? We don’t want socialism. We want to keep the borders closed. We want the culture to be consistent with Western traditional values. Will you be an optimist at the answer?”President Trump replied: “Well, I think I’m the biggest. That’s why I’m campaigning like crazy. I’ve never campaigned for midterms. You know, a president generally loses midterms no matter if it’s, you know, I don’t know why nobody’s ever explained that, but, I’m campaigning harder than I would campaign for myself because we have so many good people and they want to keep it going, and I don’t want them turning around. We have number one growth in the world. Yes, we’re the hottest country in the world.”So there you have it, Mr. Trump as an optimist. And so am I.From Mr. Kudlow’s broadcast on Fox Business Network.From Mr. Kudlow’s broadcast on Fox Business Network.
