The Biden administration has left a litany of problems in its wake for President Trump to address, from a chaotic border policy to an economy teetering on the edge. Among these issues, the dire situation in Ukraine stands out as particularly urgent, directly resulting from the incompetence of the previous administration. Trump is now in a prime position to mend the damage and stabilize both the region and American interests abroad.
Biden’s lackluster approach has exacerbated the conflict, primarily through policies that crippled U.S. energy production. As American energy prices soared, Russia’s coffers swelled, all while Putin’s troops rolled into Ukraine with little resistance. Trump, whose strong negotiating tactics are well-documented, must step up and orchestrate not only a peace deal but also an urgent response to the kidnapping crisis affecting thousands of Ukrainian children. His previous successes in direct diplomacy could prove invaluable in this endeavor.
The tragic plight of kidnapped children should transcend political divides; it is an issue that demands immediate action regardless of party affiliation. With a growing bipartisan chorus of lawmakers calling for clarity on the humanitarian efforts aimed at tracking and rescuing these children, it’s clear that the time for action is now. Unfreezing and fully funding crucial projects designed to locate these children should be a top priority for the Trump administration. Without this data, rescue efforts could falter, leaving countless innocent lives at risk.

While some lawmakers may now express public concern about Ukrainian children, their lack of action during the last four years, when the southern border was effectively open, casts doubt on their sincerity. The past border crisis led to a surge in child trafficking, and one can’t help but question why these supposed advocates didn’t shout louder then. Amidst this backdrop, Trump’s administration is reportedly poised to extend funding for vital research that tracks kidnapped children, ensuring that critical data remains intact.
Public sentiment also signals a strong desire for action regarding Ukraine. Polls indicate that the majority of Americans sympathize with Ukraine and believe the U.S. can and should do more to assist. Trump has made it clear he recognizes this need and is taking steps to establish a ceasefire, fostering hope for peace in a conflict that, frankly, should have never escalated to this point. By bolstering cooperation with both Ukraine and its allies, Trump can repair the damage and steer the nation toward a course of prosperity and security both at home and abroad.
