Political Campaign Promises

flagooner
Everything written by this member is a fact.
President Trump has done a quite remarkable job at making tangible efforts to fullfil his promises, especially in comparison to other recent Presidents.

The Democrats hate his positions on issues, but I consistently here his detractors complain that he isn't keeping his promises.
If that were the case, don't you think they'd be happy about it instead of crying?

    The trouble is most of his campaign promises were basically "free ponies". He's delivering ponies that cost ten thousand dollars each. So sure, he's delivering ponies, but in a way that is worse than no ponies at all.

    He may very well be re-elected, there are enough racists and backward fucks out there.

    Its not that he got elected by racists and backward fucks Icey. I'm not a fan of his, but the Democrats didnt put up a good candidate last time and can't seem to admit it. The left is going to destroy any moderate candidate that would have a chance of getting people in the middle part of the country to vote for them. You dont win votes by shouting them down and calling them stupid. You do it by convincing them that your ideas are better. That involves talking and listening to both sides.

    The Trump-conspired-with-Putin meme is disproven. The Obama-and-Hillary-used-intelligence-agencies-to-spy-on-Trump is about to be proven in detail.

    This is huge. Far worse than Watergate. It’s Banana Republic treason at the very highest levels of government. The proof is already irrefutable.

    Oh sure, hard core lefties will be in a state of denial but the 80% of voters who represent the Right and Independents will be outraged. Trump in a 2020 landslide. Democrats lose the House after only 2 years. Immigration reformed. The wall is built. Infrastructure Bill remakes America. Federal Courts get stacked with Originalists.

    I saw a yyyuuuuuggeee “Keep America Great” Trump 2020 banner on a bunch of construction trucks hauling rock to a site on the freeway today. Looks like he’s got more support from those outside the media, and it has nothing to do about race.

    For decades, Dems have claimed that everyone but white heterosexual males and Christians are victims. Women are victims. Gays are victims. Blacks are victims. Latinos are victims. Illegals are victims. Muslims are victims. Boo-freaking-hoo.

    Then, along comes Trump. He says everyone controls their own destiny. Everyone can be a success. He quickly establishes an economy where everyone can find work. Gain pride. Control their lives. Be beholden to no one. Walk tall.

    In 2020, we’ll discover which view of life the majority prefer.
  • JamesSD

    You mean Trump rode the tail end of the Obama boom after Obama had to rebuild everything from the last time we tried the whole Deregulate the banks thing.

    And yes if Trump gets re elected it will be on the backs of racists and misogynists because while some moderates like him, Deplorables love him.

    I do have legitimate concern the Democrats have a mediocre pool of candidates overall. There's no clear Silver Bullet to kill the beast. Beto may have the branding and the optics if a white man can slip through the nomination process. Trump will struggle if the Democrats elect a young virile white man. But if it's Kamala Harris? She's going to face more of a headwind than Hillary did.
  • mark94

    Kamala Harris ?

    Isn’t that the woman whose political career began when she was mistress to Willie Brown, a married man who was 40 years older than her ? Wasn’t she appointed to well-paying political jobs based solely on her, umm, relationship with Willie ?

    Wasn’t she raised in Canada, returning to the US as an adult ?

    Wasn’t her time as a prosecutor filled with controversy ?

    Didn’t she savage Brett Kavanaugh in the infamous, and deceitful, Supreme Court hearings ?

    Now, before the end of her first term as a Senator, she has declared that she wants to be President.

    But, of course, the only reason that anyone could oppose her elevation to President is racism. Anyone who opposes her is a racist and probably a Nazi.

    It's funny to hear the left complain and pretend to have all the answers. The facts are that since Trump took over, more people are working than ever before....the stock market is up as a result of his policies.....not those of the OBAMA administration. Obamacare is no longer mandatory and a good thing it isn't. The accusations of racism are all bullshit about a person who has received awards from AA organizations. The bullshit about the banning of muslims is hilarious because easy research would show you that the Obama administration did the same thing to the same countries. The bullshit about the "they're all animals" was specifically stated about MS13 members and not ALL MEXICANS....but too many people go by what the media tells them and they never go to the source and see what really happened.

    Muller says NO COLLUSION and the media is out there saying how they are sure there was still collusion. You can't see that? You can't see how you're being led like sheep? Think for yourselves. Find the information for yourselves and make your own decisions. See through the bullshit from people like AOC who thinks we can afford to get rid of air travel and all that other nonsense of hers. See through the idea that Trump voters are all racists and homophobes......you really think 63 million americans voted for Trump because they are racists.....you think that number didn't include people of color, homosexuals, etc.

    Sesta-fosta......you worry about that but then don't see what the left is offering? Look at the control they want of your life! They want to tell you what to drive, where to live, how to live, etc....you think they are going to do more to allow women to sell their bodies willingly?! How free was prostitution in the USSR, Cuba, China and other leftist countries? You think they'll let people choose for themselves?!

    The average American doesn't believe that you should be able to kill a child after it was born because the mother didn't want it and the doctor screwed up. They also don't think it should take 9 months to realize that you didn't want the baby. They aren't going to force you to have it if it was rape or incest or it's a danger to the mother....but they also don't buy that a woman doesn't know she's pregnant for 8 months.....it's about taking responsibility. You have unprotected sex, you know that pregnancy is a possibility and you need to get that checked out.....not wait until you've missed 5 periods and have a belly as big as your man's.

    The average American doesn't believe that every person who owns a gun is going to go on a rampage and start killing babies. All of this effort to take guns away from everyone when it clearly says in the constitution that we have the right to have them is going to push people away from the left. The average american is patriotic and isn't going to stand for having rights stripped away so blatantly.

    The average american is quiet and keeps their opinions to themselves. I think the left has misread the situation by listening to the media and big talkers. You listen to much to those who like to make a shit-ton of noise but don't realize that is really the minority. Most people just want to live their lives in the country they grew up believing was the best in the world. Most don't buy the bullshit but don't want the hassle of arguing with people who close their ears to logic and spout nonsense from their mouths freely. The squeaky wheel may get the grease....but eventually, the part will be replaced as being a constant problem.

    501Traveler, I think trying to please everyone is where the Democrats went wrong. Why would someone vote for Republican Light when they can just vote Republican? Moving to the right emboldened the far right and made the Democrats lose their identity. I think the party is finding itself again and thats a good thing. The Republicans are moving so far to the right hat they're alienating people.

    And I also wonder how many Trump supporters support SESTA-FOSTA lmfao

    Prim0,

    Just met with our financial advisor last week. After years of stagnant "growth?" under obama, it was grown by, almost unbelievably, over 66%. My numbers don't lie, so President Trump has been very good to us.

    That is something very personal, but what you say above is very astute.
  • twentyfive

    ^ what are you invested in that you’re up 66% in less than two years ?
  • lotsoffun201

    History shows all Democracies fail after roughly 200 years due to greed at the top. “Democratic Socialists” are running for President and have been elected to Congress. History always repeats itself. I’m fully expecting in the next 30 years the US will be some nebulous form of a socialist country.

    The conservative republicans have been trying to prevent it, and I believe Trump will be re elected but after that, who knows.

    You say "tomato", I say, well, "tomato" but with a different pronunciation.

    You say it's due to greed at the top, I say it's too many people that want too much for nothing.

    what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms. the remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. what signify a few lives lost in a century or two? the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it’s natural manure.

    Jefferson’s quote has to do with a citizenry remaining vigilant in holding politicians accountable. Your reference to the military has nothing to do with that. Weird.

    Not criticizing making a point you can’t shut down the opposition by calling them an enemy, they also have a stake in this country, repeating dogma, doesn’t make it true.

    25,

    No idea. I just let him do his thing and check the numbers. I took a lump sum retirement and let him do whatever. I've not touched it since he took over. I guess he could be robbing me blind. :)

    Seriously, he came highly recommended.
