What views do politicians have on the development of the US economy
Trump began by criticizing Biden. Accused him of reducing business and rising prices.
We are now seeing rising prices for energy and gasoline. If she (Harris – Channel 24) wins, everything will go down on the first day, Trump said.
He added that Kamala Harris does not have an economic plan, but “just copied Biden's plan,” and called Harris a “Marxist.” He also added that he is going to “significantly reduce taxes”: “We had a very strong economy, then the pandemic started. This is the first such situation since 1970, the first time so many people have died.”
Harris responded that she plans to build an “economy of opportunity.” This is about tax breaks for young families and assistance to small businesses, which are “the backbone of the American economy.” Harris reproached Trump for planning to “cut taxes for billionaires and large corporations” in return.
We are focusing on investments in US-based technologies to win the race of Artificial Intelligence, quantum computing to support the American workforce, and American technologies, Harris emphasized.
The Democrat also called one of Trump's mistakes during his presidency – deals with China.
