In a recent video, Caroline Leavitt urged Republicans to unite and support President Trump’s agenda, highlighting the debt ceiling as a key obstacle Democrats might use. Here’s a breakdown of the main points:
Confirm Trump’s Cabinet
- Leavitt emphasized the importance of confirming Trump’s cabinet picks, noting that four years ago, not a single Democrat voted against Joe Biden’s cabinet selections. She urged Republicans to get tough and smart, and to confirm Trump’s choices swiftly.
The Debt Ceiling
- According to Leavitt, dealing with the debt ceiling is crucial. She described it as the “last tool” for Democrats to obstruct Trump’s “America First” agenda.
- Raising or eliminating the debt ceiling is being discussed, and Leavitt believes it’s a fantastic idea that Trump supports. This move is seen as necessary to fund initiatives like securing the southern border, expediting permits for energy projects, and restoring peace through strength abroad.
Economic Impact
- The hope is that by lifting the debt ceiling, the economy will experience significant growth, similar to Trump’s first administration. This economic invigoration is expected to help build up American infrastructure and potentially reduce the national deficit in the long run.
Executive Actions on Day One
-
Trump is expected to take immediate action upon returning to office. Leavitt mentioned that Trump will use executive orders to:
- Secure the southern border.
- Fast-track permits for fracking and drilling.
- Address issues related to transgender policies.
- Launch the largest mass deportation of illegal criminals in American history.
The Trump Effect
- Leavitt pointed out that even before Trump’s return to the Oval Office, there’s a noticeable “Trump effect.” Small business optimism, Bitcoin, and the stock market have all surged since the election. International leaders are also responding proactively to Trump’s anticipated policies.
Call for Unity
- The overarching message is a call for Republican unity. Leavitt stressed that the American people re-elected Trump with a clear mandate and that Republicans need to support his efforts to deliver on his promises.
