NextImg:Trump seen as a rare promise keeper, especially with new voters - Washington Examiner

It has taken him longer than he said it would, but President Donald Trump is starting to check off his list of campaign promises, and most voters are giving him credit for keeping his word.

Deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, the keeper of Trump’s list, said that the president has clicked through many of his 20 key promises in just five months and is working to secure all of them with the help of the recently passed Big Beautiful Bill Act.

“No president in all of American history has done more to fulfill his campaign vows in so short a time,” he recently posted on X.

Most voters agree.

In a new Cygnal survey shared with Secrets on Wednesday, half of voters said that Trump makes good on campaign promises “better than most politicians.” And a sizable 38% said that he does so “much better than most.”

But more importantly for Trump politically, voters new to Trump and MAGA are really impressed.

“Among Trump switchers and newcomers (didn’t vote Trump in 2020 but did in 2024), 78% say he keeps promises better than most,” said the survey analysis. And swing voters by a 2-to-1 margin agree, said Cygnal.

“Fictional Frank Underwood once opined that promises are immune to changing circumstances. Donald Trump is the only president in recent memory who not only understands this but also uses it as the ramrod for his agenda,” said pollster and Cygnal President, Brent Buchanan.

“Trump was able to not only attract first time voters in 2024 but also convert some would-be Harris voters, and when you look at this data, there’s little question that among his most attractive qualities is voters’ beliefs that he keeps his promises from the campaign and could care less about what the D.C. establishments thinks about enacting his agenda. For Trump, it really is all about the voters and proving he’ll do what he set out to,” he added.

His promise to close the border is among the top issues that Trump gets credit for, likely because he has stopped all border incursions.

On that issue, Cygnal said that over 70% of voters are on Trump’s side and believe individuals entering the United States without legal permission have broken the law.

What’s more, 60% support deporting those border crossers and, added the analysis, “Hispanic voters are now 11 points more likely to support deportation than two months ago.”

But he has a problem with how those targeted for deportation are being rounded up, especially among the so-called “Karens” of the nation, white women.

“Who are the voters most apoplectic about the recent ICE raids? While voters are split overall, it’s mostly women — specifically, older women moved from +32 net on generic deportation to net-even while non-college educated women moved from +26 net to net-even,” said Cygnal.
