What can voters expect?

Dejection over our presidential options gets us nowhere. Dejection should not turn into rejection.

Your vote remains your voice. Make the most of it.

I studiously avoided watching the Republican convention, although I did watch Donald Trump deliver his speech which provided an accurate description of the country’s many problems and the need to fix them.

I did not hear a cogent plan of action, but it doesn’t matter. All efforts will be met with fanatical resistance on the part of the Left should Trump be elected.

Trump keeps his cards close to the vest as he must in light of the incoherent nattering that pursues him like a swarm of hornets.

I also avoided viewing the Democratic convention, knowing I have already heard the Left’s diatribes about race, economic inequality, and social justice.

If one wants to understand Hillary, replay any Obama lecture. Same boring stuff.

Blocking the Democratic march to glory is the newest scandal perpetrated this time by Debbie Wasserman Shultz.

It seems Deb, as DNC chairperson, conspired to find ways to edge out Bernie Sanders in favor of her darling, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

So much for democracy and fair play, but that is how the hard Left rolls.

Understand, if Wasserman Shultz was any farther Left, she would tumble off the coast of California. She and Clinton are simpatico when it comes to everything.

Bernie and the Bernienistas are understandably burned, having evidence aplenty that the Democratic system is indeed rigged in favor of the mainstream wannabe. Indeed, Bernie and his flock threaten a revolution at the polls despite the high fives. There is bad blood.

The current teaser is Bernie as a write-in to protest the unfairness of it all.

I would love that, not because I am a Sanders supporter, but because, just once, I would like to see Clinton pay for her political sins.

Please, let’s not pretend Hillary wasn’t privy to Debbie’s shenanigans. After Wasserman Shultz resigned the DNC chairmanship under pressure, she joined the Clinton campaign.

It was a short walk.

Is HRC crooked?

Picture a dog’s hind leg.

She makes Nixon look like a Sunday school teacher, but one must recognize to whom she is inextricably linked.

I am bone weary of the Clintons, Bernie the Whiner, the Obamas, and the whole culture of redistribution and social engineering.

Now, let’s imagine for a moment all that is swept away in November. What could we expect from a Trump administration?

I am confident we would not be bored. Nor will we be lectured.

I am certain Trump’s gruff bluster of the campaign will be replaced by a new leadership style reflective of getting down to business. Trump will rise to the challenge of the office with his customary verve.

Trump will charge the hill; leading from behind will stop.

Common sense and “can do” will replace a dysfunctional socialist ideology.

I expect to see a knitted strategy for economic resurrection unfold. I believe bad trade agreements will become more balanced. The gutting of American industry will stop. More people will find careers in secure positions as jobs stay home.

The trade deficit will go down.

Trump will cause our allies to become more allied by raising expectations. NATO will be more of a partnership against terrorism than it is now.

Some regulatory chains on energy production will fall off. Coal miners, for example, will go back to work.

Big government won’t disappear, but it will become more efficient and businesslike. The number and influence of bureaucrats will drop.

The GDP will get off its anemic growth. The business and industrial sectors of the economy will become more dynamic. Building will be boisterous.

No one knows business better than Donald Trump, and, yes, the business of America is business. Production, entrepreneurship, and a rising GDP pays for social programs, not politicians. Trump knows that; Clinton doesn’t want to.

The socialist tenet of redistributing existing wealth will be replaced by the accumulation of it through work and a renewed standard of expectations.

Capitalism will stop being a bad word.

The pace of debt accumulation will likely slow, but won’t end. However, Trump will not more than double our national debt in eight years as Obama did in his attempt to spend us into prosperity.

ObamaCare will be reformed but not ended.

The middle class will have a chance.

That I can tell you.

So what say we give Trump a fair shot. That’s more than Debbie Wasserman Shultz gave sad Bernie Sanders.
