2025-07-01 Home Front: Politix

[Free Press] Donald Trump keeps racking up wins. Since June 21, when B-2 bombers struck Iran’s nuclear facilities, the president has enjoyed a run of foreign policy victories, legal triumphs, trade wins, and domestic achievements. The positive headlines haven’t let up.

Now Trump’s looking to crown this streak by signing his "big," "beautiful" tax and spending bill into law on July 4. He couldn’t ask for better timing. Codifying the MAGA agenda on Independence Day would cement Trump’s brand of conservative populism as America’s governing doctrine—and lay the foundation for the more than three years that remain in his term.

For Trump supporters, it doesn’t get better than this. The man they elected—consistently underestimated and demonized by his critics—has delivered on the issues that secured his reelection last November. His recent achievements are so numerous, cataloguing them requires categories:

Foreign Policy: Operation Midnight Hammer fulfilled Trump’s decade-old pledge to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. The debate over how far Iran has been set back misses the point: Not only was significant damage dealt to the program, but Israel’s air superiority also ensures ease of operations over Iran if America and the Jewish state must strike again.

Trump acted on a longstanding, bipartisan commitment to thwart Iran’s atomic dreams that previous presidents only talked about. And he did so in concert with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu—a major joint operation between U.S. and Israeli forces.

By acting decisively, Trump enhanced America’s global standing. He restored American credibility and deterrence. With no daylight between the U.S. and Israel, Iran’s Axis of Resistance lies in ruins. Its war machine has been pummeled. Its leadership has been thrown into disarray. The stage is set for finishing the Gaza war and expanding the Abraham Accords to include Syria, Lebanon, Indonesia, and Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, Trump brought burden-sharing among America’s allies closer to reality. When he took office in January 2017, NATO members on average spent barely 2 percent of their economic output on defense. Now more than half of an expanded NATO meets that threshold. And on June 26 NATO committed to raising defense spending to 5 percent of gross national product.
