I copied and pasted this from a Facebook post. Just thought it was worth sharing.
"I will build a great wall on our our southern border and Mexico will pay for it." NEVER HAPPENED. "I look very forward to sharing my financials because they are huge.". NEVER HAPPENED. "Infrastructure... we're going to start spending on infrastructure BIG." ... NEVER EVEN TRIED_ "You'll have health care like you've never seen." ... STILL HAVEN'T SEEN IT. "If I lose to Joe Biden you'll never see me again." WE CAN ONLY WISH. At some point you just have to call BS on his nonsense.

The only one that came reasonably close was the wall. Even though Mexico didn't pay for it, we got a good portion of it done.
He should have passed massive infrastructure bills his first two years when he controlled both houses. I always wonder why he and Obama didn't take more advantage of a fully controlled legislative branch.
Let's not forget they all lie. Biden said he would cure cancer in his first term. I just buried a friend last week who had cancer. Don't make promises the medical world can't deliver.
Rained out of golf this morning so I'm a little crabby. Sorry. LOLPromises Made, Promises Kept! Republicans stood, the liberal left wept.
Biden di not say he would cure cancer. That was posted way out of context. It was said when he was talking about medical care and the importance of things like curing cancer.
Yes, they all lie or misquote facts, but no one has ever came close to the bold face lies that Trump spouts out daily. He is still claiming the last election was rigged. he has no record to run on, his entire platform seems to be to scare voters by his mostly made up fear of the boarder. I do think that is an issue, but when Biden had a bi partisan plan, Trump told his congress to oppose it so he could win in the election. Tells me he is not all that concerned with the border. He is much more concerned with winning the election.
Did you see that BI PARTISAN vote in how Kamala botched the border??Fetterman Calls Out His Unhinged Party Over Anti-ICE Stance, Dunks All Over Mamdani.
Opinionated - I'm sorry for the loss of your friend. I think Biden's intention was on spending on research, treatment, etc... probably a poor choice of words that could easily be taken out of context.
Yes, they all lie, unfortunately it's a part of being a politician. What bothers me most are lies that easily exposed as untrue. I sometimes wonder if Trump really believes some of the blatant lies he tells or if he assumes his followers will simply accept or overlook them.
Hopefully you can get your golf game in another day this week. The rain surprised me... but I've pretty much stopped paying attention to the forecast anymore.

Excuse me, but in regards to this:
"I will build a great wall on our our southern border and Mexico will pay for it."
I never heard Trump say that Mexico would be paying for the wall in pesos.I speak American English, so my pronunciation sounds like, “I” RAN and “I” RACK. Carte blanche
