Trump: ‘My Revenge Will Be Success’

President Trump gave a commanding performance last night during Laura Ingraham’s Fox town hall. The headline takeaway? His unifying message about getting this country back on track for everyone.“I don’t care about the revenge thing,” the former president said. “I know they usually use the word revenge. Will there be revenge? My revenge will be success.”Just to underscore his unity message, Mr. Trump described himself as “a man of common sense. You know, they say you conservative, you’re you liberal, you this, you that know where people have common sense. We need borders. We don’t want to give foreign aid to countries that hate us.”And, speaking of common sense, Mr. Trump outlined his two top Day 1 priorities: “Two things I’m going to do. Number one is drill, baby, drill. And the other thing equal, equal is we’re going to — look, I had the safest border in the history of our country.”“Drill, baby, drill” has become at least an 80 percent favorable issue. Closing the border and stopping what Mr. Trump calls “migrant crime” is probably a 99 percent issue. That’s what passes for common sense. The country will unite around those two principles.“Drill, baby, drill” would mean lower energy prices and an end to inflation. A huge economic growth booster rocket. It would also mean an end to the big-government socialist Green New Deal.Hundreds of mandates jammed down the throats of typical working families who instead want to exercise their free consumer choice over things like gasoline-powered cars, microwaves, showers, toilet bowls. They don’t want a bunch of Washington bureaucrats to tell them how to live. That’s a unifying message.And, of course, closing the border is now embraced by virtually the whole country — including a bunch of blue-state Democrats. Barriers work, as Texas’s governor, Gregg Abbott, is showing with his razor-wire campaign that has greatly curtailed illegal crossings — so much so that the battle has now shifted to San Diego from Texas.Common-sense people can see this with their own eyes, every night on the news. By the way, a wall would serve the same purpose.Ironically, illegals from all over the world, including people from China, Syria, and Africa, who still have Remain in Mexico cards, toss them away when they cross the border, because they don’t want the authorities to see the cards and deport them back to Mexico.Building a wall, Remain in Mexico, catch-and-deport: This is all common sense. Also common sense: “drill, baby, drill,” slashing grocery and oil prices, and robbing Russia’s Putin of wartime oil revenues.These are unifying themes around the vital topics of promoting faster economic growth, higher real wages, and a restoration of safety and lawfulness throughout the country. These are unifiers. They are common sense. When implemented, they will put America back on the path to success.Mr. Trump last night talked about a number of other issues — including fair trade, a return to international respect for America, and solving the blow-ups in the Middle East and Ukraine and Afghanistan. All things that formed his record during his first term.Finally, when asked why he stays in the political game throughout all the Democratic lawfare weaponizations and constant slings and arrows, Mr. Trump calmly replied: “I want to make America great again. It’s not great right now. And we can do that.”From Mr. Kudlow’s broadcast on Fox Business News.
