Did you count? Seriously. What is his (kept promises) / (all promises) value? How does it compare to that value for previous presidents? I'm sure that you have all the numbers on hand. Let's see them.
Trump’s many broken promises - Vox
- As a candidate, Trump promised to raise taxes on the rich; as president, he promised tax changes that at a minimum wouldn’t benefit the rich.
- Trump promised to break up America’s largest banks by reinstated old Glass-Steagall regulations that prevented financial conglomerates from operating in multiple lines of business.
- Trump promised price controls on prescription drugs.
- Trump promised to “take the oil” from Iraq to reduce the financial burden of US military policy.
- Trump promised many times that he would release his tax returns and promised to put his wealth into a blind trust.
- Trump vowed rollback of climate change regulations but said he was committed to upholding clean air and clean water goals.
