when it comes to the real barometer of presidential truthfulness — keeping his promises — Trump is a paragon of honesty. For better or worse, since taking office, Trump has done exactly what he promised he would.
Trump kept his promise to move the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, something his three immediate predecessors also promised yet failed to do. He promised to “crush and destroy ISIS,” and two years later, he is on the verge of eliminating the Islamic State’s physical caliphate.
He promised to impose a travel ban on countries he saw as posing a terrorist threat, and after several false starts, the final version of his ban was upheld by the Supreme Court. He promised to punish Syria if it used chemical weapons on its people, and, unlike his immediate predecessor, he followed through — not once but twice.
Trump pledged to nominate Supreme Court justices “in the mold of Justice [Antonin] Scalia,” and now Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh sit on the high court. Trump pledged to fill the federal appellate courts with young, conservative judges, and so far the Senate has confirmed 29 — more than any recent president at this point in his administration.
Trump vowed to pass historic tax reforms and signed the first major overhaul of the tax code in three decades. He vowed an unprecedented regulatory rollback, with a strict policy to eliminate two existing regulations for every new regulation. In his first year, he achieved $8.1 billion in lifetime regulatory savings and is on track to achieve an additional $9.8 billion this year.

it’s called winning.
God bless Donald J. Trump. The best President in U.S. history

Was Thiessen a never Trumper at some point?
God Bless my President!
I believe he was or at least a skeptic. That’s what happens when you let your record do the talking.
Best President in my lifetime, and Truman was president when I was born.
Trump should point to the economy and ask why are the Democrats fighting him tooth and nail instead of celebrating what’s good for America and Americans. Keep driving that wedge and more people to the Trump Train!
Well, yeah.
He’s the hardest working President we’ve ever had... God Bless President Trump...
