Over the past 30 years as an executive retail leader, I would always ask applicants one thing: If you could have the podium of the company for one day, what would you say? This question reveals so much about a person’s vision and priorities. Today, I ask myself the same question. If I could be Donald Trump for one day and attempt to galvanize the party and the disenfranchised around us, what would I say? In this moment addressing the heart of our movement, to inspire and unite us under the common values that make America great, this is what I would say.

Since 2016, the GOP has failed to erect a real party platform, allowing confusion and misrepresentation to seep into our ranks. The lack of a clear, unified vision diluted who we are and provided an opportunity for leftists to label us with their narratives. This failure paved the way for the rise of the MAGA movement—a response to the uniparty and a failed GOP that lost its way. So let me set the record straight. I am a lifelong supporter of the conservative movement, which the MAGA movement embodies. From Lincoln to Reagan, our principles have remained constant. We are not the party of needless change; we are the party that supports change that embodies American principles and the Constitution of the United States.
We champion free speech. We believe in the right of individuals to express their opinions without fear of censorship or retribution. The Democratic Party often supports policies that limit speech under the guise of preventing hate speech. This leads to a slippery slope where the definition of “hate speech” can be manipulated to silence dissenting voices. Many left-leaning platforms and media outlets have been criticized for de-platforming conservative voices, showing a clear bias against free expression. We’re here to protect your voice.
The conservative movement stands firmly on the side of life. We believe in the sanctity of life from conception to natural death. Democrats often promote a pro-choice stance, advocating for the right to terminate pregnancies. This stark contrast is evident in legislative battles over abortion laws, where Democrats push for less restrictive abortion policies. Our pro-life stance is rooted in the belief that every life is valuable and deserves protection.
We are unapologetically pro-America. We believe in American exceptionalism and the unique role our country plays in the world. The Democratic Party, however, often seems more focused on apologizing for America’s past and pushing a globalist agenda that undermines our sovereignty. This is seen in their support for international agreements that prioritize global interests over American interests. We put America first, always.
We believe in the power of free trade to create jobs and economic opportunities. While Democrats claim to support trade, their actions often result in protectionist policies that hurt American consumers and workers. Our pro-free trade stance is about fostering relationships that benefit all parties involved, rather than engaging in trade wars or imposing tariffs that can backfire on our economy.
We support legal immigration and the idea that people who want to come to America should do so through the proper channels. The Democrats’ stance on immigration often includes pushing for open borders and providing sanctuary to those who enter the country illegally. We believe in the rule of law and the importance of securing our borders to protect the integrity of our nation.
We are pro-science, advocating for policies that support scientific research and technological innovation. Democrats often claim to be the party of science, but their approach sometimes ignores scientific consensus in favor of political agendas. For example, while we support the development of alternative energy sources, we also recognize the current necessity of fossil fuels and nuclear energy in maintaining our economy and national security.
The conservative movement supports the freedom of religion and the right of individuals to practice their faith openly. Democrats often push for secularism, sometimes to the point of infringing on religious freedoms. Our stance is that religious beliefs should be respected and protected, not suppressed.
We are pro-education, advocating for school choice and policies that put parents in control of their children’s education. Democrats typically support a one-size-fits-all approach to education, often prioritizing the interests of teachers’ unions over students. Our pro-education stance emphasizes competition and accountability, which leads to better outcomes for students.
The conservative movement is dedicated to protecting civil liberties. We believe in the Constitution and the rights it guarantees. Democrats often support policies that encroach on these liberties, such as increased government surveillance and restrictions on gun ownership. We stand firm in our belief that individual freedoms should not be sacrificed for the illusion of security.
We are pro-limits on taxation, advocating for lower taxes to stimulate economic growth and leave more money in the pockets of hardworking Americans. Democrats, on the other hand, frequently call for higher taxes to fund expansive government programs. Our approach is to limit the size of government and let people keep more of what they earn.
We value healthy debate and the exchange of ideas. We believe that through open discourse, better policies and solutions can be found. Democrats often resort to shutting down conversations they find inconvenient or labeling opposing views as intolerant. We stand for a marketplace of ideas where all voices can be heard.
The conservative movement is also pro-family. We believe in the fundamental importance of the family unit as the cornerstone of society. Strong families create strong communities, and strong communities create a strong nation. Democrats often push for policies that undermine the traditional family structure, promoting alternative lifestyles that can confuse and divide. We stand firm in our belief that supporting families—through policies that promote parental rights, family values, and the sanctity of marriage—is essential to maintaining the social fabric of our nation. By protecting and nurturing the family unit, we ensure a brighter future for generations to come.
We recognize the importance of faith and moral values in shaping our society. The Democratic Party often pushes for a secular approach that marginalizes religious perspectives. We believe that acknowledging a higher power and the role of religion in public life is crucial to maintaining the moral fabric of our nation.
We believe in achieving energy independence to ensure our national security and economic stability. Democrats often push for policies that limit domestic energy production in favor of unreliable and expensive green energy alternatives. Our stance is to utilize all available resources, including oil, natural gas, and coal, to make America energy independent.
We prioritize American interests in all policies, from trade to foreign relations. The Democratic Party often supports globalist agendas that place international concerns above those of American citizens. Our America First approach ensures that we are taking care of our people and our country first and foremost.
We believe in maintaining a strong national defense to protect our country and its citizens. Democrats often push for defense cuts and policies that weaken our military capabilities. Our pro-defense stance ensures that we are always prepared to defend our nation against any threats.
We advocate for ending the endless wars that have drained American lives and resources. Democrats often support interventions and military engagements that do not directly serve our national interests. Our position is to bring our troops home and focus on rebuilding and strengthening our nation.
The conservative movement is unwaveringly pro-Second Amendment. We believe in the fundamental right of every American to keep and bear arms, as enshrined in the Constitution. This right is essential for self-defense, protecting our families, and preserving our freedoms. The Democratic Party often pushes for stricter gun control measures that infringe upon this constitutional right, arguing that such measures are necessary for public safety. However, we know that disarming law-abiding citizens does not make us safer. Instead, it leaves us vulnerable. We stand firm in our commitment to protecting the Second Amendment and ensuring that every American retains the right to defend themselves and their loved ones. By safeguarding this right, we uphold the very principles of liberty and security that our nation was founded upon.
Now, let’s talk about the Democratic Party. From the days of the KKK to their blatant disdain for Trump speaking in the Bronx, they have consistently pushed an ideology of class and racial division. Their platform has always been about suppression and control. They thrive on creating divides and then positioning themselves as the saviors. It’s always about increasing their power and diminishing the voice of the people.
The conservative movement stands in stark contrast to this. We are about empowering individuals, protecting freedoms, and ensuring that America remains a beacon of hope and opportunity. It’s time to reclaim our narrative and proudly stand by what we believe in. We are the conservative movement, and we are not going anywhere.
Join us in this movement. Let’s work together to create a nation where freedom, opportunity, and justice for all are not just ideals but realities. Stand with us as we protect the values that make America great. We are the guardians of liberty, the defenders of the Constitution, and the voice of the people. Together, we can ensure that America remains the land of the free and the home of the brave.
This is our call to action. This is our time to rise. Let us be the generation that does not back down, that does not surrender to the forces of division and control. We are stronger together, united by our common values and our love for this great nation. Join us, and together we will make America a shining example of freedom, prosperity, and justice for all.
We are the conservative movement. We are here to stay. And we invite you to stand with us, shoulder to shoulder, as we continue the fight for a better, brighter future for America. And together, we will continue to fight for our values, protect our freedoms, and ensure that America remains the greatest nation on Earth. Thank you, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America. Let’s make America great again!
