Perhaps the most shocking thing about the list of Trump's promises is the extent to which it displays ignorance about the Constitution & federalism. That said, Trump did say he would like to terminate the Constitution, so I suppose MAGA folks cld push back w/that.
I have compiled a list of 93 campaign promises Trump has made ON VIDEO. Many of these are pretty shocking, but nobody chose to make these an issue in the campaign, absurdly choosing instead to focus on Project 2025 from a 3rd party group. https://t.co/E2wumuEq0u

Interesting that even with all the Trump supporting “whales” who have thrown money into the various “election markets”, Trump has dropped 10 pts in Polymarket in this past week
“A republic, if you can keep it.”
Benjamin Franklin’s response to the question, “Well Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?” on the day the Constitutional Convention delegates signed their draft.
Counties already denying certification of elections across the US. THIS is rather concerning and points to the US election system ending up in uncharted territory. #electiondenialism#USelection2024 https://t.co/xRbYqwmgA0
