The Trump Tracker

The Trump Tracker
I believe the same software was used to track Justin Trudeau's election promises, and here's one for Trump: https://trumptracker.github.io/

Honestly though, skimming through some of his policy promises, there are quite a few I'd stand behind:

Propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress;
A requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing regulations must be eliminated;
A 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government service;
A lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government;
A complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.
I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership

There's quite a few on there, the above are just from the first page.

RE: The Trump Tracker
well, not taking the lobbyists out and lining them up against a brick wall and shooting them seems a little bit too much like coddling them.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

RE: The Trump Tracker
Have there been similar ones of these done for Obama? Would be interested to see how it would compare in 4 years time.

As I always say, you don't get the chance to be picky choosy with these guys. You have to buy the whole package. There certainly are rightwing politicians claiming to do one or two things I can stand behind too, but it would mean buying more than 90 percent of claims I would be ashamed to be associated with.

RE: The Trump Tracker
You know what I'd like to see when he's trying to get congressional term limits? How about making it so that Congress can't stick riders into bills, or remove entire sections. A bill should be passed as it was first presented, and if it doesn't pass, it has to go back to the drawing board.

I feel like too many bills (including Obamacare) were ruined because they were changed too many times before being voted on. It's like asking a really good architect to design a house, and then letting a load of your friends modify sections of the blueprint before building it, and then blaming the architect when parts of the house start collapsing.

It honestly seems to depend on how poor you are and where you live (because some states rejected the money they were supposed to use for boosting healthcare). There are 20 million people who couldn't afford insurance before, that are now insured.
