When Rep. Byron Donalds appeared on American Agenda this week and told viewers we need to trust President Trump’s judgment on Iran, he was speaking for millions of Americans who understand strength keeps the peace. Donalds rightly reminded conservatives that in moments of international crisis the country cannot afford to second-guess the commander in chief at the height of a confrontation.
The facts on the ground make his point obvious: after Iran’s reckless nuclear advances and regional provocations, President Trump has put America back in the lead with a mix of tough diplomacy and calibrated force. News organizations that cover the story concede the administration has pressed Iran in negotiations while simultaneously signaling that the United States will act decisively if Tehran crosses red lines.
Last June the administration authorized precision strikes that targeted Iranian nuclear infrastructure — a bold move that was aimed squarely at denying Tehran a pathway to a bomb. Those strikes were surgical and purposeful, designed to degrade the regime’s dangerous capabilities without dragging the American people into open-ended ground wars.
Allies noticed. NATO’s leadership told Newsmax the message to authoritarian rivals was unambiguous: America under Trump will not be pushed around, and adversaries like Russia and China should not mistake restraint for weakness. That kind of clarity — strength coupled with strategic thinking — is exactly what deters escalation and keeps our troops out of protracted conflict.
Contrast that with years of feckless appeasement from the other side of the aisle, which funneled cash and concessions to hostile regimes and left our allies wondering whether America still stood by them. Conservatives like former officials and lawmakers on Newsmax have consistently warned that only a posture of strength and credible deterrence will protect American interests and prevent regional conflagrations.
Byron Donalds’ plea to trust the president is not blind loyalty — it is practical patriotism. When the White House has reliable intelligence, a clear objective, and the backing of Congress and our partners, the nation should rally behind its leaders instead of giving the global adversary the advantage of our division. Republicans who stand firm now will keep America safe, our soldiers out of needless fighting, and our children free from the shadow of nuclear blackmail.
Hardworking Americans know what’s at stake: the security of our families, the stability of our allies, and the preservation of peace through strength. If conservatives keep demanding courage and clarity — and if we back leaders who deliver it — then the United States will continue to lead the free world instead of apologizing to its enemies. Now is the time to trust sound judgment, support our commanders, and stand united for American security.
