How Trump and Harris differ on key US policies ahead of historic face-off

 • 316 views

Two candidates show stark differences in their approach to major US issues as election day gets closer. Their contrasting views on immigration border control and international relations set-up an interesting match-up

Next weeks election puts Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in a direct match-up with very different ideas about Americas future

Immigration sits at the top of both candidates agendas: Trump promises a day-one border shutdown and what he calls “the biggest-ever deportation program“ (using National Guard and maybe military forces) While Harris supports a more measured approach — focusing on fixing whats she calls a broken system and backing the recent bi-partisan border deal

Their Ukraine positions show a clear split: Trump wants a quick end to what he calls a proxy-battle; promising a one-day ceasefire solution. Harris has met with Volodymyr Zelensky seven times and backs continued support saying “we cant let Putin win“

Do not come

Harris warning to migrants in Guatemala

On abortion Trump changed his mind a few times but now says its up to each state to decide — meaning some places might have 6-week limits. Harris takes a pro-choice stand and made history as first VP to visit an abortion clinic early-2024

The economy shows big gaps too: Trump wants up-to 60% tariffs on Chinese goods and plans to keep his 2017 tax-cuts. Harris backs Joe Bidens middle-class focused plan and wont raise taxes for people making under $400k per-year

Their Israel-Gaza views differ sharply — Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem and made peace deals with UAE and others. Harris supports Israel but talks more about civilian deaths calling it a “human catastrophe“

Climate policy shows another split: Trump wants to “drill baby drill“ and end green programs on his first day. Harris backs clean energy but changed her mind on fracking. Their foreign policy differs too: Trump likes “America First“ while Harris supports working with nato and other allies
