Frankly, as the ladies say, I am “exhausted” after a week of assassination attempts, Secret Service blame dodging, and Donald Trump infuriating the noblesse by ad-libbing his acceptance speech.
But it all comes down to this. If we elect Donald Trump president in November we are likely voting for three things.
First, we are voting to stop illegal immigration.
Second, we are voting to stop the Green New Scam.
Third, we are voting to grow the economy.
Okay, I can think of some more.
Fourth, we are going to push back against woke.

Fifth, we are going to abolish the Department of Education.
Sixth, we are going to attack the regulatory state.
And that’s about it. No, wait!
Seventh, we will find out what Elon Musk and Peter Thiel are really up to. Did Peter Thiel promote JD Vance to be his patsy, as Sundance thinks, or to crush his wokey enemies, and see them driven before him…
Are we going to reform entitlements? Not really, not until Social Security and Medicare run out of other peoples’ money.
Are we going to ban abortion? Please. Overturning Roe v. Wade has just returned the issue of abortion to the states. Donald Trump has indicated that he’s in the middle on abortion.
Now, if I had my druthers, I’d privatize Social Security and Medicare so that Americans planned for their own retirement. I’d end government education and tell the neighborhood mothers to get to work. I’d end government welfare and tell billionaires to pay for it and devoted activists to manage it.
And the reason is simple. I believe that government only knows how to punish its enemies and gift its friends. That’s what communism was all about, only there was one small problem. A top-down government-directed economy is so stupid that there is only enough loot to distribute among party leaders. The rest of society goes without.
A top-down globalist-directed economy provides for a chicken in every pot and a car in every suburban garage. At least it did.
Back in the day, I used to be a straight-up libertarian, getting my ideas from Austrian economics and Mises and Hayek. But I realize today that in the real world you can’t reduce everything to the market and to mutual-aid organizations.
