"He's doing just what he said he was going to do."

On some issues, that is true.

But he did not promise to sink the market or to butcher the 401K's. He did not promise to send people to a gulag in El Salvador, even American citizens.

He did not promise to put the most incompetent people he could find, that would pledge loyalty to him, in the most important positions of our government.

He did not promise that he would put the richest man in the world in charge of cutting all our programs that help the people of this country.

He did not promise he was going to "run the world".

He did not promise he was going to steal everything he could get his greedy fingers on and play golf all the time.
