Do you remember Donald Trump’s promise to America a year ago? Sadly, I do. | Opinion
Sacramento Bee ^ | July 19, 2025 | By David Mastio

Saturday is the one year anniversary of Trump’s historic third nomination as the Republican presidential candidate and the gripping nomination speech where he told a rapt audience about his brush with death not long before. The chairman of the Republican Party remembers it this way: “Just days after surviving an assassination attempt, President Trump accepted his third nomination for President, showcasing his unwavering commitment to our nation and to the American people,” said Michael Whatley. “President Trump campaigned on a bold vision for America: creating a strong economy, a strong border, and a strong America.

I am trying to recall any images of these past six months that bring to mind hope or healing or even a perfunctory attempt to bring people together

. On Sunday, Trump will have been in office for half a year and I recall:

Marines on the streets of San Francisco.

Masked ICE agents pulling U.S. citizens off the street

A person legally in the United States being thrown into a camp for writing an opinion column.

The Trump administration ignoring federal court orders.

A Congress passing laws on the barest of partisan majorities.

A Cabinet of half-wits and nut jobs who couldn’t get bipartisan support if their lives depended on it.

Broken promises to end war in Ukraine and the Middle East.

Bragging about a prison camp patrolled by alligators

Sounds good doesn’t it?

I didn’t cast my vote to have healing and unity. I cast it to curb the insanity that is ruining the country. In that respect, Trump is doing a great job just as he promised.

Trump hasn’t ignored any court orders. That’s a lie. He must be thinking of Biden.

America first is not what half the nation wants…. Cant force folks to understand. Trump is setting US CITIZENS up for success even if lots of them wont accept it. Just like his first term.

I thought it was Los Angeles.

Masked ICE agents pulling U.S. citizens off the street

What a bunch of hyperbolic Democrat B.S.

A person legally in the United States being thrown into a camp for writing an opinion column.

Huh? 🤔

Nope that was the previous Congress under Biden

Kamala Harris cast the most tie-breaking votes (33) of any vice president.

The only beef I have with DJT is his betrayal on releasing the Epstein files. Don’t give a _amn about a rumored list, just release the files.

Again,as to the rest — these are all great things.
