Republican presidential candidate Gov. Ron DeSantis rattled off a list of what he deemed to be broken 2016 campaign promises by former President Donald Trump, saying he’d rather attack the GOP front-runner on the issues than personality.
"Substantively, we've been very frank about our differences with respect to the former president," the Florida governor said. "I mean, for example, he promised to drain the swamp – it got worse. He did not drain the swamp.
"He promised to have Mexico pay for a border wall. They did like 50 miles of wall. There's massive expanses still there," he continued. "He said he was going to eliminate the national debt. They added almost $8 trillion to the debt in four years.
"And of course, in 2020, he turned the country over to Dr. [Anthony] Fauci, and those lockdowns and the borrowing and printing really set us on a bad course," he added. "I've been very, very frank at that."

Were you better off under Obama than you were Trump? Were you better off under Trump than Obama? Are you better off under Biden than you were under Trump?
Have you been on the Mexican border? I have. There are sections with simply Barbwire, sections with practically nothing, sections with some form of a fence or wall. Trump came in promising to build a wall, to get Mexico to pay for it he had opportunities to negotiate a deal with Congress, which we wouldn’t have liked, but he could’ve gotten the wall built. The end of his term saw less than 500 miles built most of it just fixing existing wall. Sorry that doesn’t work is 1500 miles that are in need of securing. The fact that he didn’t finish what he promised, made it easy for Biden to open the border which Trump left open. And the idea that Trump would do different in a second term with regards to the border is ludicrous. Whether DeSantis or someone else can accomplish something, we can only hope.
Again with the false statements. Specifically Trump said that Hillary is now out of the game and he doesn’t like to use the same name for two people. It’s beautiful that she’s gone & Biden is vastly more crooked than Hillary ever was. The above was clearly said at the three most recent Trump appearances.
Anyway, to ‘drain the swamp’ and actually drain it not just talk about it takes legislation.
I went bankrupt and got divorced under Trump. I am struggling under Biden. Let’s not go there.
BANNON KNEW!
No one I. Politics would even be talking about illegals at all wi th I it Trump…

The former head of the Capitol Police claimed, under oath, that six times they requested National Guard troops ahead of January 6th, and all six times he was refused by security officials at The Capitol Building.
When you gaslight you lose all credibility.
over 300 miles of wall have been built, though just 5 miles are new
Attorney General Sally Yates bamboozled Pence, who then bamboozled Trump into believing Flynn had been compromised by the Russians and lied about it. It was all a set up and Trump's inability to see that allowed the Obama/Biden cabal to make Trump jump for the next 2 1/2 years as they set the Russia Russia Russia hoax in place.
If Trump had told Gates to stuff it, what a different world it would be.
Hey Ronnie....when are you going to say “we have a felon occupying the White House?”
Was your wife a President Trump hater?
A better question is: Does your wife know you’re gay?
He kept more promises than the last 3 presidents combined.
