Every time I see coverage of a Trump rally (which is often . . . Bozo does hold a lot of rallies) I see placards saying "Promises Made, Promises Kept" . . . like these:


Now if I remember, Bozo made quite a few promises during his 2016 presidential campaign but the 2 main ones were:

a) Make America Great Again

b) Build a wall along the Mexican border and make Mexico pay for it

Okay, the first one is highly subjective and not really measurable. Trumpanzees will squeal about how good the economy is (if you're already a very rich person who owns shares) while others might say that all the economic trends are just continuing the positive trajectory that Obama turned around after the Dubya disaster. Trumpanzees will tell you that ISIS is dead and Rocket Man is under control while others will point out some of Bozo's foreign policy humiliations like capitulating to Putin in Helsinki and getting openly laughed at by UN members. Either way, whether you're a Trumpanzee or not, I'm sure we can agree that this one is still in the balance and only time will tell whether Bozo kept his promise of making America great again.

The second one is a lot more clear cut. I've actually asked a few of the Trumpanzees on this board the same question on this thread but they're all dodging it. Where is this wall that Bozo promised to build which Mexico would pay for? Why is Bozo sending 15000 troops to the Mexican border at taxpayers expense when it would be so much more cost-effective to build a wall at Mexico's expense, as he promised?

Or is this yet another example of a pre-election promise that wasn't kept (like banning Muslim immigration) and if that is the case, why are the Trumpanzees attending Bozo's rallies waving those silly placards that are patently untrue?

Hmmm . . . if nothing else, I seem to have found a way to shut the Trumpanzees up . . . just ask them about the wall that Mexico was going to pay for.

So are you saying he won't build the wall or that Mexico won't pay for it?

Easily paid for by the new trade agreement....Prime Minister Clouseau er Trudeau chipped in. They have paid for it and haven't even figured it out. Trump in mid season form.

So why are the Trumpanzees waving those stupid banners saying "Promises Kept"?
Which pre-election promises has Bozo kept?
I can't think of one . . . unless he promised to play a lot of golf, watch Fox News and tweet all day.

If you look at his fiercest enemies,  he actually becomes likeable.

Draad, saying "whoosh" is usually meant to signify that the other person has missed the point and "whoosh" is the sound that the point makes as it flies high over his sloping forehead.
You seem to consistently use it for something else . . . which is both funny and ironic given that you miss the point so often.
My advice, don't try to mimic what other people say all the time and try to be original once in a while. Saying something intelligent on the odd occasion wouldn't hurt either . . .
