Trump 2.0 is miles ahead of the Democrats

Published January 31, 2025 6:00am ET



Democrats and their friends in corporate media have no idea how to handle Trump 2.0. The president’s first term saw a handful of major accomplishments, namely tax cuts and the Abraham Accords, but, by and large, Democrats and journalists were able to thwart large swaths of President Donald Trump’s agenda using an extremely effective combination of censorship and propaganda.

Perhaps Trump simply learned how to combat the Left’s tricks, or he is surrounded by far more competent advisers this time around. Maybe the bullet that nearly killed him in Butler, Pennsylvania, focused the president in ways not seen in his several decades in the public eye. Whatever the case may be, this version of Trump is a far more effective weapon against the Left than many, myself included, thought possible.
