Trump's Promises and Political Reality
Donald Trump's political history indicates that many of his promises may not come to fruition. For instance, during his presidency, he failed to construct a significant border wall and did not receive payment from Mexico as he claimed. Such instances raise skepticism about his future capabilities in fulfilling promises if elected again in 2025. Ultimately, voters are encouraged to assess Trump based on his past actions rather than his rhetoric.
