Energy Independence: “Drill, Baby, Drill”

One of Trump’s most controversial yet effective policies was his focus on energy independence. At [09:57], Jeremy highlights Trump’s stance on domestic oil drilling:

“Trump didn’t just talk—he acted. His ‘drill, baby, drill’ policy was a return to common sense.”

Jeremy points out that under Trump, the U.S. became a net exporter of energy for the first time in decades. He argues that Australia should take a similar approach:

“Why are we punishing ourselves with high electricity prices when the U.S. thrived under energy independence?”

As energy prices soar globally, Jeremy questions whether countries like Australia should reconsider their strict net-zero policies in favour of economic stability.

Immigration Reform: A Hardline Approach

Trump’s tough stance on immigration also sparked debate worldwide. At [13:24], Jeremy discusses Trump’s proposed changes to birthright citizenship:

“It’s a fair solution to a complex issue. You can’t have people gaming the system.”

Trump’s proposal aimed to end automatic citizenship for children of non-citizens born in the U.S. Jeremy believes similar policies could benefit Australia, preventing the exploitation of immigration loopholes.

“Every country has the right to protect its borders. We need policies that work for Australians first.”

A Businessman’s Approach to Politics

Jeremy praises Trump’s business mindset, arguing that it translated well into politics.

“He ran the country like a CEO. He cut bureaucracy and focused on results.”

While Trump’s direct communication style was divisive, Jeremy argues that it resonated with working-class voters.

“People liked him because he spoke their language. He didn’t hide behind political correctness.”

Jeremy believes world leaders can learn from Trump’s ability to connect with voters and prioritise national interests.

Global Lessons from Trump’s Policies

Trump’s presidency left a lasting impact on policy discussions worldwide. From energy independence to immigration, his influence remains strong.

Jeremy asks:

“Do we want leaders who make bold decisions, or do we prefer endless bureaucracy and weak policies?”

As nations grapple with economic challenges, Jeremy suggests revisiting Trump’s approach to governance. Could his policies provide a blueprint for success in other countries?
