The majority of promises/ intentions made by all candidates require an Act of Congress and funding.

Sometimes Congress won't play ball even when the majority and POTUS are aligned by party.

And some initiatives are never pursued, once elected.

No POTUS has ever fulfilled all promises/ intentions.

No matter who is elected, only thing certain is that some of their campaign words will haunt them and some intentions/ promises will not be realized. And sometimes that's not a bad thing.

Donald Trump "Go first, I'm a gentleman" REALLY? After that sexual assault locker room talk you're a gentleman. He's just lying again. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

How old are you??? This is how men talk behind closed doors or "locker rooms". Where is the surprise in this?
I work for a govt agency, and hear this stuff all the time.

Saying something, lusting. And doing something(bill Clinton) are two different things.

yep, that's weird and kind of scary.

OrganicSmallHome wins! With one post virtually every three minutes since the thread started, you win!

Donald beat Hillary tonight though, and I am surprised.

He somehow convinced us that he merely said these things as locker room talk, and didn't actually do these horrible things.

I didn't think he did some of these things, who saw him do these things? Too hard to prove. Water under the bridge now.

Trump somehow brought his supporters back and reminded us all who he's running against.
