So true! "And yet," if you think about what a conjunction is -- "a concurrence of events," according to Merriam-Webster -- your use of it makes perfect sense. Trump uses the "sleight of hand" trick, of saying one thing while doing another. Typically, thankfully, it is difficult for an honest, intelligent person, like you, like us!, to comprehend a manipulator like Trump, who deals only with an illusion of the truth (i.e., lies, misrepresentations, fraud). What your evidence-based, lengthy sentences represent is the actual truth, which results in a doubly long sentence ... which is what Trump's term now feels like.
