I never promised you a rose garden

Person 1: I can't believe I married you, this is not the life I signed up for!

Person 2: Oh yeah? Well, I never promised you a rose garden.

Promiseering

Promiseering is the cynical use of promises to obtain consent or support from a base for a short term course of action that secures a position of leverage for the promiser, with the option of abandoning the promise when the leverage is obtained.
During election campaigns, some politicians may resort to promiseering tactics to secure the vote for themselves.
