Seth Meyers slams Trump's many broken promises in an 11-minute deep dive
Wondering why Trump has announced even more restrictions that could stop legal immigrants entering the U.S.?
Seth Meyers has an idea. In the deep dive above, he argues that the president is toughening his stance on immigration because he's been unable to deliver on any of the other promises he's made to his voters — from reforming healthcare to stopping factories from closing down.
"Trump inflicts cruelty on desperate migrants fleeing poverty and violence because first, he's a racist, and racism is literally at the core of his ideology," concludes Meyers. "And second, he's failed at literally everything else he's promised to do.
"You need a plan to expand healthcare, save manufacturing jobs? You can't just do it by tweeting or yelling at people."

ReplyDeleteBroken promises? Are you referring to obama, he didn't accomplish a single campaign promise at least not the ones the public knew of. He fulfilled his promises to Muslim countries by weakening America.
ReplyDeleteFailed at what Seth?
ReplyDeleteOh, he's kept some promises. Like:
ReplyDelete- dismantling the EPA.
- killing any progress we were making with Cuba.
But he's failed at keeping these promises:
- defunding Planned Parenthood
- ending birthright citizenship
- building a wall and having Mexico pay for it
- establish a commission on Radical Islam
- cancel funding to "sanctuary cities"
- enact a Constitutional amendment for term limits
- impose death penalty for cop killers
- appoint special prosecutor to investigate Hillary
- make no cuts to Medicare
- invest $550 billion in infrastructure
Mashable is a joke.
