Tweety is keeping the easy promises, and failing on the hard ones.
"The biggest lie Trump tells is that he’s kept his promises"
A raft of populist pledges have been left on the cutting room floor.

"President Donald Trump is such a hard-core liar that Wednesday morning on Twitter he quoted a Marc Thiessen column defending his honesty that literally contains the line, “Don’t get me wrong, Trump lies all the time.”"
"Thiessen downplays Trump’s routine dishonesty with the dismissal that “in part, it’s a New York thing — everything is the biggest and the best.”
As a New Yorker, I have to say that it is not actually true that people in New York act like sociopathic liars (and imagine the uproar in conservative media if I sniffily dismissed complaints about Bill Clinton’s dishonesty by saying he’s from Arkansas).
But more to the point is Thiessen’s argument — quoted by Trump — that he delivers on his promises. That’s important since one big problem in politics with having a well-deserved reputation as a liar is that if a liar leads your political movement, you are liable to be betrayed. Thiessen, and Trump himself, wants to reassure supporters that even though Trump may be a huge liar, he won’t break faith with them."
Promises Tweety has not kept are the hard ones, so unlike most politicians, he ignores th hard ones. H's doing what is easy. Tweety is not keeping the IMPORTANT promises, ones with the most impact for the nation.
" - As a candidate, Trump promised to raise taxes on the rich; as president, he promised tax changes that at a minimum wouldn’t benefit the rich.
- Trump promised to break up America’s largest banks by reinstated old Glass-Steagall regulations that prevented financial conglomerates from operating in multiple lines of business.
- Trump promised price controls on prescription drugs.
- Trump promised to “take the oil” from Iraq to reduce the financial burden of US military policy.
- Trump promised many times that he would release his tax returns and promised to put his wealth into a blind trust.
- Trump vowed rollback of climate change regulations but said he was committed to upholding clean air and clean water goals.
- Trump promised a $1 trillion infrastructure package."
What would we expect from ANY politician. They cannot always do what they promise.
Who is Tweety's puppeteer? Telling him what to do? Why did Tweety betray the LGBTQ community he promised to protect!
Why is Tweety only doing what is easy?
He is not accomplishing what he promised, at least not the hard promises.
