This is my issue with politics today. You just want to win. That's the only "promise" you care about.

That's not healthy for this country. 

Also, I'm going to need some advice on where to live if #14 happens. Didn't even realize my parents were 1 year short of citizenship when they had me until I asked them in ~2017 the last time this was an issue.

and then expects mature discourse 

Oh come on.  You really think that list from Penelope is highly vetted, accurate and meant for mature discourse?  You really believe that?  You then claim there is video evidence of each of these promises, but then call names when asked to verify.  Grow up.

Do you have a more preferred list of campaign promises from the guy you voted for? Our list or yours, I think it's important to track if people are doing what they said they would do or not. And trump has said quite a lot with his own mouth, multiple times. 

It's unfortunate to just claim it's a lie, but offer nothing to back up your claim.

As requested, here is a start on sourcing before I go back to my day job - #9 and #18 were the only 2 of the first 19 that I couldn't find a good source with a quote or video from DJT. I'll try to finish the rest later but needless to say, thus far, that list of 93 looks accurate:

#14 is worded incorrectly I believe, if you read that article you linked it just says he will end that law. It doesn't mention going on some witch hunt to find every citizen ever born to migrant parents.

Apology accepted.  I'm glad you pointed out that I did not call the list a lie.

Yes, meidias+ and this list we put together by a never Trumper (Ron Filipkoski).  There is going to be some bias in there if that is the source.  Would you agree or do you just accept everything that Ron listed is genuine and unbiased?

12. Interest rates on credit cards will be capped at 10%.  (I'm sure Ron didn't do this on purpose to mislead.)

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-wants-cap-credit-card-095900487.html  “While working Americans catch up, we’re going to put a temporary cap on credit card interest rates,” Trump spoke to a packed audience during a campaign rally in New York on Sept. 18.

@dieucla98 Thanks for all of the links. I think you will admit most of these aren't Trump videos or direct Trump quotes (like the above) but rather an article written on interpretation.

Goodbye federal funding for special needs kids. This is another policy that people have no understanding of the real impact - especially in rural communities 

They will get what they asked for, they will be absolutely indignant about the grisly consequences of their choices, and then they  will find a way to blame the Democrats like the feculent intellectual beggars they’ve always been.

61. $10,000 per child tax credit for home schooling. 

Is this what he said?  I thought it was first 10k of costs is tax deductible. An actual credit would be much more significant. 
And would also probably drive many more to try to home school, since they’d get paid 10k per child to do so, as long as their tax burden is sufficiently high. Or maybe the credit will apply into the negative and become a payout for some with several kids. 
Which in turn would fuck up public schooling (whether administered by federal or state agencies) and private schooling. 
 

Just first thoughts, but am I missing things here?

I guess if they want to make it retroactive and pay me 200,000 for the last 10 years of home schooling two kids I’ll accept it and use it to pay for their college.

Are you trying to draw a logical equivalence between what individuals are scared of and campaign promises made by the president-elect?

I gotta tell ya I’m puzzled 

I think tracking what one group of people think will happen over the next 4 years is just as interesting as tracking what the leader of the other group of people says will happen.

Is this what he said?  I thought it was first 10k of costs is tax deductible. An actual credit would be much more significant. 
And would also probably drive many more to try to home school, since they’d get paid 10k per child to do so, as long as their tax burden is sufficiently high. Or maybe the credit will apply into the negative and become a payout for some with several kids. 
Which in turn would fuck up public schooling (whether administered by federal or state agencies) and private schooling. 
 

Just first thoughts, but am I missing things here?

I guess if they want to make it retroactive and pay me 200,000 for the last 10 years of home schooling two kids I’ll accept it and use it to pay for their college. 

What do you get for home schooled college? On that list is a new Trump U, all online. Can I make my kids go there and get credits?
