I like the idea but it is obviously biased with &quot;promises &quot;such as<p>&gt;&quot;If I become president, we&#x27;re all going to be saying &#x27;Merry Christmas&#x27; again.&quot;

I wonder if people actually think he&#x27;s going to do what he said. The guy has a history of talking bullshit to get what he wants. He just said all the right things and made a bunch of promises to become president. He doesn&#x27;t care about following through. Why would he? His promises were a means to an end. Trump has a history of fucking people over and now it&#x27;s our turn.

This may be satire, but I actually like this idea. In all fairness, I was very surprised to run into his &quot;contract with Americans&quot; only <i>after</i> the elections. A lot of people attacked him on the basis that he didn&#x27;t have any proposition other than building a wall. You may disagree with some or even most points (I certainly do), but they are there.

This was very likely inspired by <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.trudeaumetre.ca" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.trudeaumetre.ca</a>, which so far has done a great job watchdogging the Canadian government.

Trump was full of flaws, failure, and fraud as as a businessman and it went ignored by his supporters. It&#x27;s naive to think that his performance or his earnestness as a president will mean anything to them.<p>This is thinking from the era that was still at least ostensibly about truth and facts. Future elections need be about no more than who can give poor people the loudest, simplest explanation for why they&#x27;re poor.

Great stuff, my only recommendation would be to link to sources where he said these things.

Great idea. The list needs improvement, though, and editing. Check out the erroneous entries on the unsorted tab, for instance.<p>A lot of these items are subjective, as well. What, for instance, qualifies someone as a &quot;great legal scholar?&quot;

God, I hope Trump does not fulfill any of the promises he made, even the favorably liberal ones. I am hoping it was all for the show and he is not serious about doing any of it.

Some seem hard to track:<p>&gt; Global warming is real, but it&#x27;s not man-made.<p>And quite some are bound to be broken:<p>&gt; The wealthy should pay more.<p>&gt; Cut taxes for the wealthy big time.

I can&#x27;t tell if this is meant to be satirical or not, but if it isn&#x27;t, you forgot a <i>yuge</i> one that I&#x27;d like him to keep and for everyone to pressure him to keep it:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.donaldjtrump.com&#x2F;press-releases&#x2F;donald-j.-trumps-five-point-plan-for-ethics-reform" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.donaldjtrump.com&#x2F;press-releases&#x2F;donald-j.-trumps...</a>

Has anyone done something like this during Obama&#x27;s administration?
