I think it will be interesting to follow these promises for the next few years.

Below is a concise, numbered list of his promises in the video above:

1. Repeal and Replace ObamaCare

2. Stop treating Israel a 2nd Class citizen

3. Have the US Embassy move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem

4. Constitutional Amendment to Impose Term Limits on all members of Congress

5. Negotiate NAFTA

6. Label China as a Currency Manipulator

7. Change NATO for the better

8. Place a hiring freeze on government employees

9. Give Middle Class some tax breaks

10. Have a 5-year ban on on government offices doing lobbying

11. Withdraw support for the TPP

12. On day one start rounding criminals immigrants

13. Lifetime Ban of White House officials from lobbying for foreign countries

14. Build an impenetrable Wall on the Southern border

We already treat Israel like a first class citizen. So, Trump can check that one off. (Though it would help if he'd not make anti-semitic remarks again.)

[Haruo]

We should be treating all people as first-class citizens, and nation-states as just that. Does he say what class ticket he'll give Mexico?

[KeithE]

There are actually 282 promises he made during the campaign.

Stop treating Israel like a second class citizen? And then he proposes to allow Russia to increase their military presence in Syria, to help against ISIS without consulting the Israelis? Wonder how they feel about having a large Russian military force right on their border? I always thought that after Tim Layahe's series of books came out, Russia was the "Gog and Magog" of the battle of Armageddon, so a lot of prominent evangelical leaders are either not paying much attention, or their position goes in whatever direction the wind blows depending on the political gain they get from it. Kind of like their flip flop on whether character matters in a candidate. It depends on whether it is someone they support or not.

[Haruo]

I thought Gog was Russia and Magog was East Germany.

Yeah, for literal inerrantists they sure have a tough time keeping the script straight.

[KeithE]

Has accomplished already:
6,8,11

Has worked towards in substantial ways but not finished:
1,2(arguably),5,14,15,16

Has not yet done anything substantial towards promises yet:
3,4,7,9,20

Signs are that he will do nothing about:
10,13,17,18

I really don’t know:
12,19

Not bad in terms of promises being fulfilled, but many of those promises are wrong, imo - like building walls and calling China names.
