On the campaign trail in 2016, President Donald Trump made numerous promises about what he would do when he reached the White House.
Stacker compiled data from PolitiFact s Trump-o-Meter, which continually tracks the promises President Donald Trump made in his 2016 campaign for president. For four years, PolitiFact s reporters kept track of the promises and researched whether each promise was kept, broken, compromised on, stalled, or in the works. Each slide provides a description of the promise, the status of the promise, a link to more information from PolitiFact s researchers on the promise, and our own research into the promise.

ATLANTA (CN) The 11th Circuit on Friday rejected a civil rights lawsuit filed by survivors of the 2018 Parkland school shooting, ruling that school and county officials who failed to help students during the shooting did not have a “custodial duty” to protect them.
In a unanimous decision, a three-judge panel of the Atlanta-based appeals court rejected an attempt by 15 former and current students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School to revive the suit against Broward County and various officials, including Superintendent of Schools Robert Runcie, former Sheriff Scott Israel, former school-resource officer Scot Peterson, and former school security monitor Andrew Medina.
