🇺🇸The Great American Promise Scam: Documented Proofs of How Presidential Candidates Betray Voters

⚠️Dont Trust, verify⬇️

Imagine signing a contract where one side is free to lie, break promises, and face zero consequences. This is the American presidential campaign system, where the numbers reveal a devastating trend: recent presidents have fulfilled a steadily declining percentage of their promises – from George W. Bush’s 59% to Obama’s 48%, Trump’s 36%, and Biden’s current 32%. This isn’t due to inability, but a system that legally shields candidates from any real accountability.

Ironically, the #FirstAmendment, intended to protect honest discourse, allows presidential hopefuls to make grand promises without a shred of obligation to deliver. This means that statements made during campaigns cannot be legally enforced as contracts or binding obligations. This isn’t just about a few broken commitments – it’s a structurally protected loophole that transforms campaign speeches into consequence-free marketing pitches. Candidates stand on stage, selling promises they never intend to keep, backed by a legal shield that turns public trust into an unreturned deposit in a system built to protect deception. This applies to your beloved #Harris and #Trump.

🚩The Declining Trust: A 20-Year Spiral

🇺🇸Joe Biden (2020-2024)

🤑Economic Promise: “Support for the middle class” – Promised meaningful support for working families but has failed to pass essential policies, like affordable childcare and expanded healthcare, while corporate profits soar and wealth inequality deepens.
🚸Economic Relief Promise: “Immediate student loan relief” – Biden promised significant student debt forgiveness but has only provided limited relief, impacting a fraction of borrowers.
🩸Defense & Military Promise: “Return to diplomacy” – While pledging diplomacy, #Biden has authorized over $17 billion in military aid to #Israel, bolstering its military arsenal and supporting genocidal actions in occupied territories, further inflaming Middle East tensions and humanitarian crises.

🇺🇸Donald Trump (2016-2020)

👩🏾‍🌾Immigration Promise: “Mexico will pay for the wall” – Instead, American taxpayers shouldered the $11 billion cost, while immigration reform promises went unfulfilled.
💵Anti-Establishment Promise: “Drain the swamp” – Trump appointed numerous billionaires, corporate insiders, and former Goldman Sachs executives to top positions, despite his anti-establishment rhetoric. While, the Trump Organization had indirect ties with Goldman Sachs through investments in commercial properties.
🩸Defense & Military Promise: “End endless wars” – While Trump withdrew some troops, the U.S. remained heavily engaged in global conflicts. His administration increased drone strikes, with thousands of attacks primarily targeting the Middle East, and escalated tensions with Iran, culminating in the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani, which nearly led to war.

🇺🇸Barack Obama (2008-2016)

🤬Transparency Promise: “Most transparent administration in history” – Obama’s administration set records for denying Freedom of Information requests, expanded #NSA #surveillance, and failed to close #Guantanamo Bay despite repeated promises.
🤑Economic & Social Justice Promise: “Hope and Change” for struggling Americans – While Main Street suffered through foreclosures and rising inequality, Obama’s administration prioritized $29 trillion in #WallStreet bailouts, leaving 5 million families without #homes.
🩸#Defense & #Military Promise: “End the wars in #Iraq and #Afghanistan” – Instead, the wars continued and costs surged under #Obama, with U.S. operations expanding to seven countries, mainly in the #MiddleEast. His administration dropped 26,171 bombs in 2016 alone, with thousands of civilian casualties and a record number of drone #assassinations.

🇺🇸George W. Bush (2000-2008)

🌍Foreign #Policy Promise: “No nation building” – Launched two costly wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that continue to impact the Middle East and the U.S. economy, totaling $8 trillion and costing thousands of lives.
🤑Domestic Economic Promise: “Compassionate conservatism” – Bush’s administration prioritized #tax cuts for the wealthy while military engagements drained federal resources, leaving vital social programs underfunded.
🩸Defense & Military Promise: “Quick, decisive victory in Iraq” – #Bush’s wars led to spiraling costs and massive U.S. operations in the Middle East, including tens of thousands of drone strikes. #Bombing campaigns, especially in Iraq, took a heavy civilian toll. The Bush family has historic ties to major defense contractors, profiting indirectly from the defense industry’s surge during the War on #Terror.

⚠️Each broken promise isn’t just a statistic – it represents millions of shattered lives, empty wallets, and betrayed voters, all protected by a legal system that elevates political deception to an art form. This is not an accidental flaw; it’s an institutionally crafted mechanism that allows candidates to say what voters want to hear, knowing full well they may never follow through. So the next time you hear a campaign promise, remember: it’s not a commitment – it’s a legally protected sales pitch wrapped in the flag of constitutional protection.

I could trace over a century of broken promises by different U.S. presidents, but just look at the last twenty years. The message is clear: history repeats, and empty promises remain. Learn from this – don’t get fooled again.
