The Difference Between Campaigning and Governing

In August:
In August, he (Trump) held a press conference at his New Jersey golf course standing next to a table of grocery items where he attacked Vice President Kamala Harris' economic policies.
"Prices will come down,” Trump also told rallygoers during a speech in August. “You just watch. They’ll come down, and they’ll come down fast, not only with insurance, with everything.”In December
In an interview with Time Magazine for its Person of the Year spread, the 78 year old was asked whether he would consider his presidency a failure if costs don't come down for consumers.
"I don't think so. Look, they got them up, I'd like to bring them down. It's hard to bring things down once they're up," he said. "You know, it's very hard." -

the 78 year old
Too lazy to look it up, and it's almost bed time for me.
How many times did USA Today refer to mush-head as "The octogenarian," or the "80 year old?"
Sorry to derail but the bias is so obvious.
Now USA has to insert the age of the President-elect...because TDS.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Ending the war in Ukraine in 24 hours
Then
“That is a war that’s dying to be settled. I will get it settled before I even become president,” Trump said during a September debate with Vice President Kamala Harris in Philadelphia.
“I know [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelenskyy very well, and I know [Russian President Vladimir] Putin very well. I have a good relationship and they respect your president, OK, they respect me.Now
Mr Trump, who has repeatedly said he has good relations with Russian President Vladimir Putin, told reporters at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida this week his self-imposed 24-hour deadline on the conflict's resolution would be extended.
and
Donald Trump will aim to end the war in Ukraine within 100 days of re-entering the White House, the president-elect's pick for special peace envoy has said.
It followed Mr Trump, who had previously pledged he could solve the conflict within 24 hours, backtracking on that idea when he confirmed during a press conference talks would not begin until after his inauguration on January 20.

Mr. Trump continues to grow and get a little bit smarter every day.
He's certainly grown. Not sure about the other bit.

Well it’s also pretty historic. He will be the oldest person ever to be sworn in to the office. By a number of months. lol
