Hewitt frames Trump as an 'A-to-B' leader in Fox News op-ed

A Fox News opinion column by Hugh Hewitt argues that Donald Trump remains a central figure in the current political landscape, describing him as an "A-to-B" problem-solver who communicates directly with the public and pursues policy goals within the constitutional order.

Hewitt portrays Trump as an "A-to-B" figure who identifies a problem (A), maps a direct path to a solution (B), and then pursues it in a straight line. The column argues that Trump’s accessibility—public questions answered plainly—has helped him remain a defining voice for a broad segment of voters. It notes Trump’s emphasis on national security, the modernization of the U.S. Navy, and other policy areas, along with positions on education, civil rights on campuses, and the court system that Hewitt says reflect a consistent approach to governance within constitutional boundaries.

Hewitt lists a GOP bench he says has been strengthened by Trump’s leadership, including Vice President JD Vance, Secretaries Rubio and Heseth, Senators Cotton and Cruz, and Representative Stefanik. He also notes working relationships with leaders such as Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader Thune, as well as governors Ron DeSantis in Florida and Glenn Youngkin in Virginia. He frames these relationships as part of a broader strategy to move policy from concept to implementation.

The column argues that Democrats are in disarray and leaning further left, giving Trump space to claim the political center and set the agenda on key issues like border security, school safety, and economic growth. Hewitt says Trump’s focus on a pragmatic, "one big" policy goal and adherence to constitutional norms reflects his approach to governing, not a pure ideological campaign. He emphasizes that Trump is driven by delivering tangible results and that he has shown willingness to work through court decisions as part of the process.

The piece appears in Fox News Opinion as part of the Morning Glory segment and serves as a platform for Hewitt’s broader commentary on Constitution, national security, and American politics. Hewitt, a veteran broadcaster and former presidential debate moderator, describes Trump’s public conversations as highly accessible and notes that voters hear his messages clearly, even when parts provoke controversy. The column closes by pointing readers toward Hewitt’s radio and TV show for additional coverage.
