Conservatives love to say Trump keeps his promises and, in a way, that’s what makes him so dangerous. Weaved between the nonsense, there are times he is true to his word. But far too many people never really listened to what those words meant. They didn’t question the promise to 'run America like a business' because they never questioned the man making it. They embraced The Art of the Deal not because it was a good book with any actual wisdom, but because they believed a rich man must be a smart man. That success equaled wisdom. That wealth was proof. But the book was never a blueprint, it was a warning. A gospel of ego, smoke, and debt. And now, with trillions wiped from the market, we’re living the consequences of their taking that promise seriously. Promises made. Promises kept.
