Broken Promises: part 1

Tl;Dr: Shout out where Trump’s actions violate campaign promises

There’s not much that will be more effective than showing Trump supporters how their support is being used in ways they didn’t vote for.

Here’s a great example: Trump’s Political Platform promises “Make America the dominant energy producer in the world, by far!”. The theory goes that if the U.S. makes more oil, natural gas, and coal it will make energy prices cheaper for people in the U.S. This is pretty basic economics: To decrease price, increase supply.

Sadly, the situation is more complicated than that:

• More than 75% of the export capacity of the U.S. is Financed by foreign countries. Profits from the export go there, not to the US
• China is the country that will benefit from price changes

The President is a powerful political figure – executive actions are designed to make timely, important changes. We need a president who will make well considered changes that help us. Looks like we’re headed in the wrong direction.
