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.
