The right wingers love to claim trump is keeping his promises.. I would love to know what those promises are, I find none that an American should like..

but even I, a totally objective viewer of the orange fog bank, can find a number that he has not and seems to have no intention of keeping..

Now if they are not still overwhelmed by the DNA test that trump refuses to pay up on as he promised many times.

let us all have a quick look at a letter from my congressman Nolan..

>>>>>

Like so many other Americans, those of us who serve on the House T***sportation and Infrastructure committee are wondering – wh**ever happened to the President’s promise of a $1 trillion infrastructure bill? The answer, 21 months after the President took office, is “nothing.” The President and GOP leaders have earned an “F” for their failure to deliver.

A healthy infrastructure is the foundation of jobs and economic growth, and states rely on the federal government for the lion’s share of funds to fix deteriorating highways, roads, bridges, airports, rail lines, t***sit systems and water treatment facilities.

If you commute from the 8th District down I-35 to the Twin Cities, congestion will cost you about 41 extra hours in rush-hour traffic every year, along with an additional $1,332 in gasoline and wear and tear on your vehicle. Shipping delays due to highway and rail tie-ups cost Minnesota businesses millions of dollars every year.

Because situations like these are so common throughout the nation, the Civil Engineers recommend an investment of at least $3.5 trillion to bring our infrastructure up to 21st Century standards that match what China and the European Union are doing.

To put that $3.5 trillion figure into perspective, we have already spent more than $6 trillion on wars of choice in Iraq and Afghanistan. With interest and the continuing cost of our involvement and care of our wounded military Veterans, that figure is estimated to reach nearly $16 trillion over the next 20 years.

As I have said so many times before, it’s time to put a stop to these endless wars of choice and start reinvesting in America – in infrastructure, human development, medical research, education, addressing c*****e c****e, and so many other urgent national priorities to help ensure a better life for future generations.

We will keep you posted as events proceed. Meanwhile, I want to hear your thoughts. Feel free to contact any of our offices listed below or send me an email.

If you want to keep track of promises made start paying attention.Where do you get off asking someone else to keep track of them for you.You liberals are showing your true character by continually defending the abhorrent behavior of the Democratic Party.

Conservatives support war. They don't support anything else and so long as they are in charge nothing will ever get done in terms of infrastructure, though our military will be the best. Oh by the way. Here in Dallas Obama's infrastructure bill rebuilt a big chunk of 635 north which cut an hour off going to see my cardiologist. Just saying. Oh wait, didn't cons say it was a complete failure...unless you need your cardiologist...

Actually, this is one promise I would have loved to see him keep because it is the only one that would actually benefit this country. You guys do understand that the job of president is to benefit the country not simply placate the wants and wishes of one ideology--else any promises aren't worth spit.

you need to get out more...635 and the 35 north funding was negotiated by Rep. Michael Burgess
We here in North TX succeeded in slowing construction down, starting back in 95.

Had plans been carried forward as was proposed it would have been a YUGE mess.

Snip>>>Federal Highway Administrator Helps Open LBJ Express Project
Urges Congress to provide long-term investment, end patchwork t***sportation legislation

DALLAS – Federal Highway Administrator Gregory Nadeau, with state and local officials, helped open Dallas’ LBJ Express project today, which rebuilt one of the busiest highways in north Texas. The $2.6 billion project, which relied on nearly $1.2 billion in federal assistance, is expected to improve mobility by nearly doubling existing roadway capacity. The project used the design-build delivery method, an innovation supported by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under its “Every Day Counts” partnership which fosters the use of underutilized innovations to shorten the project delivery process, enhance roadway safety, reduce congestion and improve environmental sustainability.

“Innovative financing can help replace and repair our country’s crumbling infrastructure, but we also need long term infrastructure funding to get more projects like this one off the starting blocks,” said U.S. T***sportation Secretary Anthony Foxx. “Congress is back from summer recess and now we need them to get to work on long-term t***sportation funding that will help build more projects like this one, providing good jobs and fueling the nation’s economy.”

Earlier this year, the Obama Administration proposed the GROW AMERICA Act to address the nation’s infrastructure deficit with a $478 billion, six-year surface t***sportation reauthorization proposal. The Act would provide critical investments to fix our decaying roads and crumbling bridges and ensure the safety of our t***sportation systems. Sixty-five percent of America’s major roads are rated in less than good condition, while one in four bridges require significant repair or cannot handle today’s traffic and 45 percent of Americans do not have access to t***sit. Such programs will help communities keep pace with our expanding economy, our growing population and the traveling needs of the public.

GROW AMERICA provides funding for enhanced credit programs by providing $6 billion over six years for the T***sportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) program, an investment that could support $60 billion in loans.

“Managing growth means managing mobility,” said Administrator Nadeau. “LBJ Express is leading the way with new and improved lanes and roads that will give travelers options in getting to and from Dallas safely.”

The LBJ Express project, which used funds from an $850 million TIFIA loan, spans 16 miles and includes the finance, construction, operation and maintenance of a corridor of frontage roads, general purpose lanes and tolled managed lanes from Greenville Avenue to Luna Road on I-635 and 13 miles of tolled managed lanes from Northwest Highway to Valwood Parkway on I-35. The managed lanes will use variable tolling to keep traffic moving at a goal of 50 mph.


Conservatives continue to express how such projects were abject failures even though they provided jobs and have been vital in upgrading our infrastructure--work that likely would still be floundering if conservative hands were part of it...

He promised to release his tax returns, to replace the ACA with something much, much better, to reduce prescription drug costs, to get a new nuclear deal with Iran, and the list continues. Trump did keep his promises to his rich friends..............................the rest of us got screwed.
