"THREAD: Millions of Americans voted for @realDonaldTrump because they expected him to deliver, and millions who didn't vote for him need him to deliver -- when is he going to come through for them? Think about it:"

".@realDonaldTrump promised the American people a better health care system -- better quality at lower prices. As premiums jump double digits in state after state, it's clear he hasn't delivered on that promise."

".@realDonaldTrump promised to protect Medicaid and Medicare from cuts and then proposed cutting both of those programs. Just recently, the President backed off a commitment to let Medicare negotiate lower prices for prescriptions drugs."

".@realDonaldTrump promised his tax bill would be a middle-class miracle -- instead, the #GOPTaxScam was mostly a giveaway to corporations and the wealthy. Already, we're seeing higher premiums and rising gas prices eat away at any meager tax benefit middle-class families received."

"How about #infrastructure? @realDonaldTrump promised a $3 trillion infrastructure bill to build gleaming new roads, bridges & tunnels. It took him over a year to propose a detailed infrastructure plan & when he did, it wasn't even close to a trillion. And it's gone nowhere."

"Even on trade, where @realDonaldTrump & I mostly agree on policy, he hasn't delivered. After talking a big game on China, promising to be very tough, this weekend the president completely backed off."

"Did he #DraintheSwamp? Nope. @realDonaldTrump filled the federal govt with industry lobbyists & rich execs with sprawling conflicts of interest. His cabinet secretaries have enjoyed luxuries on the taxpayers' dime. And his Administration hardly even vets its candidates."

"What else? There has been no "bill of love" for the #Dreamers. The President never stood up to the NRA. There is no check from Mexico for a border wall."

"So I'm asking: Are you better off today than the day @realDonaldTrump became president? Most people aren't. Costs are going up and so many of his promises just aren't being fulfilled."
