The number of campaign promises Trump has kept and achieved in just his first term is unbelievable to me. I thought the political process is fucked, that no thing substantial could actually be done. Time and time against Trump proved me wrong. If you told me all the things hes achieved back in 2016 I really wouldve thought you were off your rockers.

I can't think of a single "politician" that has actually worked to keep promises in my lifetime, let alone a POTUS.

The only thing Trump has disappointed me on is the deficit, it's gotten larger, and we're on track to having added as many trillions of $$ as Obama did in his eight years in only four years.

That's my biggest criticism I have for him and honestly didnt even think he was conservative when he ran in 2016. He also never really promised to lower the deficit did he?

I remember him running on taking out NAFTA, TPP, "what have you got to lose" (for the black community, the f'ing balls man), pro 2A, law and order, economy/manufacturing, border protection, China, and you knew he was anti PC culture, off the top of my head.

Pretty much fulfilled every major promise and then some which was no small feat.

I think he did promise to lower the deficit. To be fair, I remember it slowing down before the COVID debacle, but still we need to lower our spending even more. For example, we're investing trillions into defense of countries on the other side of the world (like Scandinavia)

Thanks for the info, it's good to keep it real. It's a good answer to one of those "Can you say anything bad about Trump" situations.
