LARRY KUDLOW: Both Reagan and Trump pledged to make America strong again at home and abroad
Kudlow says Trump will rip Biden's high inflation
Larry Kudlow: Trump vows to revitalize the cities
FOX Business host Larry Kudlow says former President Trump will blast President Biden over high inflation at his Bronx, N.Y., event on 'Kudlow.'
In the summer of 1980, candidate Ronald Reagan went to the South Bronx to campaign.
Guess where?
It was only two blocks from Crotona Park, where Donald Trump is scheduled to rally tonight.
Reagan criticized the hapless Jimmy Carter for failing to revitalize urban areas, comparing the South Bronx to London after World War II.
President Jimmy Carter and his Republican challenger, Ronald Reagan, shake hands as they greet one another before their debate on the stage of the Music Hall in Cleveland, Ohio.
Donald Trump has also said many times in his campaign against Joe Biden that, if elected president again, he intends to revitalize the cities through enterprise zones, lower taxes, liberating small, minority-owned businesses from the Biden burdens of regulatory red tape, a new era of law and order — including closing the catastrophic Biden illegal immigration — and backing school choice.
Reagan, back in that summer of 1980, blasted Carter for hyper-inflation and promised to deregulate oil prices and slash tax rates.
He did, oil crashed, and the economy soared!
Trump will be blasting Biden tonight over high inflation and has promised to restore "drill, baby, drill" in order to bring down high energy prices and conquer inflation.

Both Reagan and Trump pledged to make America strong again at home and abroad.
Mr. Reagan carried New York by 3 percentage points in his 44-state landslide in 1980, and in 1984 carried New York by 9 points in his 49-state uber-landslide.
I have no idea if Mr. Trump can carry New York.
But I do know that he's only down 9 points in a recent poll compared to a 23-point loss back in 2020.
And I also know that Mr. Trump's rally in the South Bronx tonight is sending a message nationwide.

It's a shot across the country that his working-men’s coalition, based on the economy, crime and immigration, is going to be making huge inroads into the Biden Democrats' old-time minority coalition — just like Reagan did.
