Trump's Campaign Promises
#1
1. Would end War in Ukraine before he takes office.
2. No taxes on tips.
3. No taxes on overtime.
4. No taxes on social security
5. Reduce Corporate tax rates.
6. Tariffs
7. Bring SALT back.
8. Eliminate the Dept of Education
9. Eliminate the IRS

How many of these can he keep?
#2
He will be able to keep more promises than Kamala will.

I'm not going to waste time debating the point, but I don't believe that Trump made all the promises that you listed. Did the list come from a reputable source, or from some propaganda source like MSNBC?

2 biggest for me
1 REDUCE THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT. BY A LOT.
Elon Musk hopefully can be a huge help.

2 Fix our broken immigration system. The first step is 100% finishing the wall on our southern border.

I have about 15-20 more but if he can just do these two I'll consider his second term to be a big success.

He didn't and the list is ridiculously over-simplistic.

I didn't think so. I listened to a lot of Trump's speeches and I definitely would have remembered a promise to eliminate the federal income tax. 

I don't vote for promises. I vote for accomplishments that I liked. Trump had many and Kamala has none. It was a very easy choice. I look forward to seeing Kamala certify the electors.

I remember hearing that about Elon Musk last night.  Really looking forward to seeing what he does.

I'm hoping that he ends the woke emails to everybody with a military email address. I recently received an email from an officer who included his preferred pronouns in his signature block. Asking woke officers to resign would be a great act and much appreciated my most of our men and women in the military.

Absolutely. A lot of those people will resign IMO rather than get fired or demoted to file clerk. Hopefully Mark Milley is the first to go away forever.

With Election Day around the corner, Trump talked about his interest in ending the federal income tax in two high-profile interviews this week, harking back to the late 19th century, when the US relied on tariffs to fund federal spending. The former president has vowed to broadly impose tariffs, arguing they can generate trillions of dollars in revenue.

Speaking with barbers in the Bronx, New York, in a segment aired on Fox News on Monday, Trump said, “There is a way, if what I’m planning comes out.”


A few days later, podcaster Joe Rogan asked Trump whether he was serious about replacing federal income taxes with tariffs.

“Yeah, sure, why not?” Trump said
during his interview Friday on “The Joe Rogan Experience.”

The bigger question is which one of these promises that he carries through will you and others of your ilk not whine and bellyache about

Trump did not promise to end the income tax. I listened to all of the Rogan interview and they're was no promise. They discussed tariffs and income taxes but to say that he promised to end the personal income taxes is not remotely true. 

I didn't vote for any promise and have no interest in discussing them. I will judge Trump on his actions, just as I judged his first term.

CNN and MSNBC are not accurate news sources. This campaign should have shown you that.
