In a move that is likely to send the political elite into another bout of hysterics, Donald Trump has announced that Peter Navarro is making a triumphant return as his Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing. This decision could be likened to inviting back the best quarterback after watching the opposing team pile on too many points. After all, who better to lead the charge on making America economically robust again than a man who has already been through the fire—or, in this case, the federal prison system?
Navarro enters this role armed with years of experience and a reputation for getting things done—two things that have become increasingly rare in a swamp seemingly resistant to any meaningful action. Trump wasn’t shy about trumpeting Navarro’s accomplishments during his first term, highlighting how the Harvard-educated economist knocked it out of the park with his aggressive “Buy American, Hire American” policies. Those policies not only renegotiated trade deals like NAFTA but also executed tariff actions with a speed that left his rivals scrambling. In essence, Navarro knows how to swing a hammer, and he aims to keep striking down the wall of unfair trade practices that have plagued American workers.
It’s also worth noting that while many had Navarro pegged as a casualty of the political war against Trump, he continues to bounce back like a seasoned boxer refusing to stay down. After serving four months behind bars for sticking to his guns—literally refusing to comply with a subpoena from House Democrats about January 6—he’s emerged not just unscathed, but with a flair for the dramatic. Peter didn’t just step back onto the political scene; he charged in with a fiery speech at the Republican National Convention, proclaiming he went to prison for the American people.

The left’s collective meltdown over Navarro’s appointment probably resembles a toddler being denied a candy bar. They love to decry his methods, but Navarro’s record speaks for itself: he’s all in when it comes to protecting American labor. It’s almost as if the establishment finds him a threat, not because of his policies, but because he actually gets results and doesn’t fold under pressure—something they inconveniently find hard to do.
With Navarro back in his corner, it seems Trump is doubling down on an agenda designed for the working-class American, which may leave the elites scratching their heads—from either confusion or outright fear. In the hands of a proven warrior like Navarro, the vision for revitalizing American manufacturing and trade not only feels feasible but frankly inevitable. And as they say, if you want to make an omelet, sometimes you have to crack a few eggs—Navarro appears ready to crack every last one of them.
