During a recent interview, President Trump claimed he did not guarantee “no new wars” during his campaign. However, numerous statements from 2024 demonstrate repeated and explicit promises that the United States would not engage in any wars under his leadership. While some remarks contained nuance about ending “endless” wars, he unequivocally pledged on multiple occasions to have “no more wars.” This direct promise was made across various platforms, including social media posts, convention speeches, rallies, and interviews, even after his electoral victory.

President Donald Trump denied breaking campaign promises regarding war, asserting during a “Meet the Press” interview that his conflict with Iran would not be “endless.” He characterized the ongoing dispute as a disagreement over language concerning Iran’s future nuclear material acquisition capabilities.

Complicating matters, the Strait of Hormuz remains closed by Iran, significantly disrupting global shipping and contributing to elevated prices for goods and fuel in the U.S.

The ongoing war, which has led to significant disruptions in global shipping, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz, has also resulted in elevated prices for goods and fuel impacting American consumers and industries.

It appears there’s a considerable amount of discussion around statements made regarding the initiation of new wars. The central theme is a claim that he never actually promised “no new wars.” This is a significant point of contention, especially given past campaign rhetoric that many recall as being quite definitive on the matter.
The narrative often presented was one of ending conflicts, not perpetuating them. Phrases like “I’m not going to start a war. I’m going to stop wars” and promises to prevent Americans from fighting and dying in “stupid foreign wars that never end” are frequently brought up. These weren’t just passing remarks; they were often highlighted during rallies and speeches, resonating with an audience weary of prolonged military engagements abroad.… Continue reading
A brewery owner in Wisconsin has thrown his hat into the ring for the state’s gubernatorial race, and his campaign is already making waves, thanks to a rather bold and unconventional promise. He’s declared that if Donald Trump were to pass away, he’d be offering free beer to everyone. This declaration, while certainly attention-grabbing, has sparked a wide range of reactions, highlighting both enthusiasm for his political aspirations and significant skepticism regarding his approach.
The notion of a political candidate leveraging the death of a former president for a free beer giveaway is, to say the least, unusual. For some, this promise is a symbol of pent-up frustration and a desire for a decisive end to a particular political era.… Continue reading
President Trump has reportedly abandoned key campaign promises, stating the U.S. cannot afford childcare, Medicaid, and Medicare due to ongoing wars and other expenses. This stance, contradicting his earlier pledges to alleviate these costs, is seen as a significant misstep. Democrats are urged to capitalize on this failure and Trump’s low approval ratings on the economy to galvanize voters and potentially achieve a “blue wave” in the upcoming midterm elections by highlighting their own plans for affordability and domestic well-being.

It argues that his actions have contradicted these promises, citing increased prices for goods and gas, job losses during his tenure, and a historical trend of economic underperformance under Republican presidents compared to Democrats. The author contends that tax cuts benefiting the wealthy, rather than the general population, have exacerbated debt and contributed to economic crises.

In early November, President Trump mentioned the possibility of $2,000 rebate checks for Americans, funded by tariff revenues. However, when questioned about this in a recent interview, he initially appeared to draw a blank before stating that the administration aimed to issue the checks “toward the end of the year.” This followed a November Truth Social post where he outlined the plan, claiming substantial tariff income would facilitate the payouts. While the administration maintained the funds, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent had previously cast doubt on the plan, suggesting that Americans save the money to avoid inflation.

No tax on tips. It sounds simple, right? Almost too good to be true. And, as it turns out, that’s because it was. The promise, a shiny bauble dangled before a hungry electorate, came with a hefty dose of “fine print,” transforming a seemingly straightforward proposition into a complex and, for many, disappointing reality.
The devil, as they say, is in the details. In this case, the details revealed that the “no tax on tips” pledge wasn’t a complete exemption. Instead, it was capped at a specific income level, meaning that those whose earnings exceeded a certain threshold would still be subject to taxation on their tips.… Continue reading

The remarks were reported by NBC’s Peter Alexander on TODAY.
