Bobby, a former police officer and experienced Air Force veteran, was tasked with guiding me around Connecticut last week. He had been helping guests visiting my radio station who weren’t familiar with the area. During our conversation, he recognized me from the time when Donald Trump was, let’s say, less than pleased in the four discussions I had with him while covering the campaign in 2015-2016. Bobby asked me a question, and, without a prepared answer, I gave him my thoughts, breaking it down into subtopics. I realized afterward that I hadn’t articulated it that way before, but it felt entirely accurate to me.
It wasn’t really a shock when his next question was, “Why?” I mentioned that I thought he was the ‘ab’ guy, which made sense to me at the time. I simply replied without much deliberation.
Trump reacts to criticism with responses that delve deeper than just politics or culture wars.
I’m not overly concerned about all of Trump’s policies or choices; however, I do give credit where it’s due. He’s a much better option for the Oval Office compared to figures like Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, or Kamala Harris. I don’t feel the need to elaborate on my three votes for him.
It’s interesting, though: when I admit to strangers that I’ve grown to “love” him, they usually ask, “Why?” This week, I had a quick response that I think I’ll use going forward.
Honestly, I doubt Bobby or anyone else just having a casual chat would want to hear about the importance of revitalizing U.S. Navy defenses or how Operation Midnight Hammer prevented a crisis with Iran. Or why it’s essential for our education system to uphold civil rights laws and protect Jewish students on campus. There’s a long list of successful policies and appointments that have made a difference—because, yes, many of those choices have helped maintain the Constitution against various challenges. My disagreement list on policies? Much shorter.
Whenever I’m asked about Trump, I feel it’s just a brief moment to voice my support for him. In my former law practice, I represented a big developer. Their projects spanned thousands of acres. Whether it was an individual like Trump or a team of business-minded people, they were all goal-oriented; they aimed fast. Time equals money, and their focus was on getting from point A to B—selling homes, offices, or industrial sites.
Lawyers didn’t usually welcome these sorts of journeys, but calls came in whenever obstacles arose—issues with endangered species, wetlands, and so forth. Their main concern? Getting the project from point A to B, regardless of the rest of my life or beliefs.
And that’s what the “A-to-B” mentality is about: finding solutions. President Trump looks at challenges and wants to follow a direct path to addressing them, always within the framework of the Constitution.
(He’s adhered to court rulings consistently, so claims of dictatorship are, frankly, absurd. Anyone suggesting such should reconsider their credibility.)
Trump is straightforward. He tells you what he thinks. If his views shift, he shares that too. He identifies problems and chases solutions. If one fails, he recalibrates and tries again. It’s a relentless pursuit of resolution.
There’s one clear “A”: where America stands today. However, there are many “BS” elements at play, from global tensions like with Xi and Putin to pressing domestic issues like interest rates and the need for manufacturing.
He’s been in the business of seeking the most viable solutions until they seem unreachable, only then moving to the next best option.
I appreciate this approach. It’s out there for everyone to see, and anyone willing to listen will hear it.
Honestly, it was, hands down, the best interview I’ve done on-air because Trump engages with every question. Even if the questions seem silly, he calls it out. Accessibility? No previous president has had more access to everyday Americans. He understands that every effective developer needs to communicate with people at various skill levels to achieve their goals.
Successful developers share a common trait: they take significant risks, learning from mistakes along the way. But once they find success? They’re all “A-to-B” thinkers.

This is why I enjoy card games. I have a priest and a pastor, but I don’t need them when it comes to the president. A revamped constitution requires respect, and I think Trump is unafraid to challenge his lawyers on past precedents like “Humphrey’s Enforcer” or “Chevron’s Doctrine.” His energy and resilience benefit the entire nation, even those opposed to him.
He intimidates our adversaries or at least makes them reconsider their malicious intents.
The GOP has a strong up-and-coming lineup that Trump has fostered: figures like Vice President JD Vance, Rubio, and others. Trump has good relations with Republican leaders who wield independent power, such as Mike Johnson and Gov. Ron DeSantis. Meanwhile, Democrats seem lost, diving off a cliff, while Trump has managed to capture the political center, focusing on issues like national and child safety, and fostering economic growth.

He’s an “A-to-B” person, and it seems that’s how many Americans think as well.
While Trump displays more characteristics reminiscent of “TR” than “RR” or “HW,” there’s a significant need for someone with that “A-B” mentality who can navigate losses and keep moving forward. Sometimes, it really is that straightforward.
