, they (politicians) generally dont fulfill their campaign promises

That is true. Most pols don't keep their promises. Some don't even try.

But how does that make Trump better than the pols? Once he gets elected, he's a pol too. How many of his promises do you think he'll keep. Make Mexico pay for the wall? All the other stuff?

Not to mention his gleeful support for gov. taking over private homes, ethanol subsidies, and a number other issues he's taken the anti-conservative stand on. He is directly pandering to Iowa voters on the ethanol issue. Sounds like a typical pol to me.

What reason do we have to believe he won't keep his promises...Does Trump have a history of lying to people???

Even if Trump is successful in only one of his claims, that one more thing that his opponents even intend to accomplish...

We can't lose with Trump...If he does nothing, he's still just as good as the opposition...

“But how does that make Trump better than the pols? Once he gets elected, he’s a pol too.”

True, which is why there should be no career politicians. None. You can’t trust anyone with ongoing power, unfortunately.
