Broken Promises by President Trump
What follows is a list of broken promises and failed policies that have occurred on Trump’s watch:
The last Spending Bill was a HUGE political disaster for Trump as it was a catastrophe for the American people. The Military-Industrial Complex as always was the BIG winner.
The National Debt has ballooned under Trump. It’s now well over $21,000,000,000,000! The US Govt borrowed over $1 trillion in 2018 and much more in 2019.
Trillion Dollar Budget Deficits are returning according to the CBO.
Trade Deficits are also hitting a 10-year high.
The so-called ‘successful’ Tax Bill was mainly a giveaway to Corporate America and the super wealthy. The rich and powerful will only get richer from that Democrat-approved legislation. Really, why would the Democrats ever give Trump a legislative win unless their own unconscionable enrichment was guaranteed.
Obamacare was not repealed even with Republican majorities in both chambers. Why not? And now we’re stuck with it forever because of Trump’s willful incompetence.
The Border Wall remains as elusive today as it was when Trump first promised it. He really has no intention of building a wall or a fence or anything…and never did!
The DACA debate remains just that—a debate. There’s been no real movement.
As for federal Immigration Policy, almost every Trump executive order has been thwarted. He floats measures that are destined to fail… … …by purposeful design.
As for Abortion, not only is the criminal Planned Parenthood abortion factory still up and running, Infanticide-permitting laws are now approved in states both large and small.
Next, there is President Trump’s Gun Control, and the right to bear arms. Yes, he’s already foisting his own version of gun control stealthily on the nation. For instance, Trump directed AG Sessions to craft a new federal policy that was quietly restrictive. The right to purchase bump stocks has been revoked; so have silencers been shut down. Even the age allowed to buy assault weapons has been raised, but they can still go to war. There are other serious gun control measures in the works that have not yet been put out by the POTUS but we’ve heard his strong support of the state’s Red Flag Laws.
Draining the swamp was the most important promise that Trump made — REPEATEDLY — during the 2016 election cycle. “Lock her up!” was his campaign mantra that compelled many to get on the Trump train that is now a out-an-out train wreck. Not only did he not lock up Hillary, she’s out and about stomping the campaign circuit as though she’s running for POTUS in 2020. Only Trump associates have been arrested, prosecuted, convicted and incarcerated for crimes they did not even commit. Meanwhile, the self-incriminated coup plotters and obvious traitors are still on the loose conducted their soft coup. Quite UNBELIEVABLE ! ! !
Contrary to draining the swamp, the Trump administration has aggressively gone after the most courageous whistleblowers of our times such as Julian Assange. Trump’s DoJ has promised to put Assange behind bars for the rest of his natural life (Remember, without WikiLeaks Trump would have lost 2016). Furthermore, Trump has only tweeted about the countless and profound violations of the Second Amendment where it is conservatives exclusively who are illicitly censored, never liberals. His stunning lack of executive action in this regard is as reprehensible as it is despicable (as long as Trump still has his own Twitter account he cares not a whit about the intensifying censorship of the Right).

This is just a partial list of broken promises and failed policy-making. A comprehensive list would be 10 times as long. Here’s another excellent takes on Trump’s broken promises.
