Promises made, promises kept Pt.1
Never before has any President even made an honest effort to
keep the campaign promises they made until Trump.
Obama in 8 years only accomplished 43% of his promises.
In less than 4 years Trump is making good progress but I
will elaborate.
It depends upon how many promises Trump has actually made.
The left and liberal media have him up at over 300. Reality has
yet to sink in for them.
The level of obstruction aimed at Trump is an amazing testament
to his determination and dedication to the people of America. It's
been a disgusting display of hatred and desperation considering
their motives.
I'll try to pick out the truth from their exaggerations and
start there. This could take a couple of weeks.
**Trump said he would take care of our Veterans.
We now have 40% more vets employed. He has reduced veteran
suicides. He eliminated 100% of student loan debt for all
permanently disabled veterans.
He signed the Military Housing right Bill for military families
He funded $15M to help veteran farmers to own and operate farms
He signed VA Choice and Accountability Act.
Brought back 55 American remains from South Korea. He donates
his 1st quarter salary to the VA. Signed Exec. Order for vets to go
outside the VA for care anywhere based on time.
He expanded teleservices and same-day urgent care.
**Trump promised to cut taxes and create jobs. He has.
Gave tax relief to 82% of middle class. He doubled Child Tax
Credit and nearly doubled standard deductions. He cut taxes on
small businesses by 20% and provided funds for wage increases and
bonuses for 4.8 million workers. Made US companies more competitive
in the world market by reducing corporate tax rates that enabled
them to create millions of new jobs. *He removed the burdensome
Obamacare mandate. Unemployment rate was at 3.5% until the virus
and will be again. Trump created 650K manufacturing jobs that Obama
said were gone forever. Also created over a million more jobs than
there were people to fill them. Obama lowered the job participation
rate to hide his true unemployment number.
Trump created Safe Zones, the Women's Global Development and
Prosperity Initiative, federally funded apprenticeship and OJT
programs. And he saved the US $90 billion in regulatory costs.
**Immigration
He has built almost 300 miles of border barrier that Democrats
wanted until Trump did. I know what you are saying. Mexico would
pay for it. Think about this. Thousands of illegals were crossing
the border, costing the US $1 billion every 2 days and the Left
would NOT help. Trump made a deal with Mexico and they slowed the
flow down to a trickle, saving us billions. Trump wanted $25B to
build it but they said NO. Trump eliminated tariffs and has created
a way without the corruption of the Left. The reason behind their
obstruction is another story to do with cheating.
He removed us from several programs designed to circumvent our
Immigration laws. He rescinded DAPA and is winding down the Corrupt
DACA program. He is working on disqualifying sanctuary cities from
getting federal grants and funding.
He is now working on a merit-based immigration plan and to set
limits on those seeking citizenship until our economy comes back to
the growth path of pre-virus days.
He has actually arrested 2000 MS-13 members and 8,000 other
gang members. In 2017 ICE removed 226,119 illegals, in 2018 256,085
And Border Patrols have seized 3 million pounds of drugs.
There's still 11 million illegals here, they must go and come
back legally when they will be welcome.
**National Security and Defense
Trump said he would rebuild the military and he's done a great
job. Our military and their equipment was either non-existent or in
dire need of repair. He has spent trillions doing that.
If we are going to be the most powerful country in the world we
have to be able to back it up. He has modernized it and reduced our
presence in the Middle East and put our foot down on the Obama era
effort for world equality by sending money to over 50 nations with
billions of dollars and apologies. Someone has to be in charge.
To be on top you have to "Keep your friends close and your
enemies closer" He is doing well at that. He meets with leaders
around the world whenever he can. Xi, Putin, Un? It doesn't matter
because he has an agenda to KEEP us on top.
If someone aggresses against our people we respond. We don't
try to buy their cooperation, we demand it.
He has also created the 'Space Force' to protect our assets in
orbit around the earth.
He has also placed tariffs on countries that took advantage of
us and has weaponized several countries that border our enemies.
This is quite a project. I am sure I will miss some of his
promises but he is doing a great job and thanks to the media he
is receiving very little credit.
As we near election time, wait for the debates and do your own
research. You have been lied to and deserve the truth.
May God protect and bless this country.
Conservatively,
John
