For years, Americans have watched their leaders stumble on the world stage, from embarrassing withdrawals to endless conflicts that drain our treasury and cost precious lives. We’ve seen our adversaries grow bolder while our allies question whether America still has the strength and resolve to lead.

The mainstream media has spent years painting a picture of chaos and failure when it comes to conservative foreign policy, particularly anything involving Donald Trump. But sometimes reality breaks through their narrative so forcefully that even they can’t ignore it.

From ‘CNN’:

“This is one of the areas in which Donald Trump is performing significantly better than he was in term one. One of his best issues relative to term one. What are we talking about? Approval of Trump on foreign policy at this point in term one. Look, Donald Trump was just at a 35% approval rating. Up like a rocket. We’re talking about 43% now. That’s an eight point rise on the net approval rating. We’re talking about a double digit rise.”

“Donald Trump has a higher foreign policy approval rating at this point in a second term than any other president who served their entire second term in the 21st century.”

Yes, you read that right—CNN said this. On air. Without choking.

Those words didn’t come from Fox News or a conservative outlet. They came from CNN’s senior data reporter Harry Enten, who delivered this jaw-dropping confession while presumably fighting every instinct in his body. The same network that spent years calling Trump a threat to world peace is now using phrases like “up like a rocket.”

The Numbers Don’t Lie

Stop right there. Read those numbers again if you need to. Trump’s 43% foreign policy approval rating surpasses both George W. Bush’s 36% and Barack Obama’s 37% at the same point in their second terms. This is despite facing unprecedented media hostility and constant attempts to undermine his every move on the international stage.

The American people are seeing through the noise and recognizing results. Take the Israel-Hamas conflict, where Trump holds a +3 net approval rating compared to Joe Biden’s disastrous -37 by the end of his term. That’s not a typo—forty points. A forty-point difference on one of the most complex foreign policy challenges of our time.

You know things are going well when even your biggest critics run out of spin.

Real Results in Real Time

Here’s where it gets interesting—these aren’t just numbers on a page. They represent tangible victories that make America and the world safer. The UN Security Council’s approval of Trump’s 20-point Israel-Gaza peace plan marks a historic breakthrough. All surviving hostages have been returned to their families, and Israel is withdrawing its troops according to the negotiated framework.

Meanwhile, traders are giving a 61% chance that Israel and Saudi Arabia will normalize relations under Trump’s leadership. (Remember when they said Middle East peace was impossible?) His administration is also working on a comprehensive 28-point plan with Russia to end the Ukraine conflict, with Special Envoy Steve Witkoff leading intensive negotiations.

Mark your calendars, people. This is what actual diplomacy looks like.

Even Critics Can’t Deny Success

What makes this moment particularly extraordinary is that even some conservative critics like Tucker Carlson and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who’ve expressed concerns about military engagement, can’t diminish the overall success of Trump’s approach. The results speak louder than any criticism.

When CNN’s Harry Enten declares Trump’s foreign policy approval is “up like a rocket,” you know the achievements are undeniable. Hell must be freezing over. As Enten himself admitted, “Presidents like to build their legacies off of foreign policy,” and Trump is building one that even his harshest critics must acknowledge.

This isn’t about partisan politics—it’s about American strength returning to the world stage. After years of leading from behind, America is once again negotiating from a position of power, ending conflicts rather than starting them, and bringing home hostages rather than abandoning them.

The mainstream media may reluctantly acknowledge these victories, but the American people have already recognized what’s happening. We’re witnessing a return to peace through strength, where our enemies fear us, our allies trust us, and conflicts end through American leadership rather than American retreat.
