In reply to the discussion: Immigrants drive Nebraska's economy. Trump's mass deportations pledge is a threat [View all]Aussie105
(6,579 posts)23. Oh, don't worry!
Trump promised the red states he would look after them, and he wouldn't let them down, surely?
I mean, they voted for him, so now he is obliged to look after them, right?
Superfluous thingy:
Why are people so gullible?
Pre-election politics: Promise the Great Unwashed anything, just to get their vote.
After you win: Ignore them. Make excuses. Point out the promises are impractical, and you didn't really mean it. Anyway, get over it, you voters aren't that important.
