Former president's new campaign promises shake up White House race dynamics
After Biden steps away from re-election bid‚ **Donald Trump** faces off against **Kamala Harris** in upcoming vote. Recent events changed campaign focus from democracy concerns to policy-based discussions
The presidential race took an un-expected turn when Joe Biden stepped back letting Kamala Harris challenge Donald Trump (whose got enough delegates to represent Republicans)
After mid-summer assassination try-out Trump changed his message from confrontation to unity‚ while Dems got push-back for their harsh words about democracy risks. The ex-president now focuses on day-to-day problems that worry average folks: money issues border control and safety
Here are his main promises:
- Re-do government structure with loyal workers
- Stop green energy support; get back to oil drilling
- Put 10% tax on foreign goods
- Start mass-deportation program
- Cut income tax and car-loan fees
- Make tough crime rules
- Change relations with NATO allies
Trump wants to clean-up whats he calls “the swamp“ – meaning government workers dont share his views. His plan includes special tests for new-hires and big changes in FBI‚ Justice dept (the Education one would be gone completely)
The border stuff is super-direct: more wall-building troops against drug groups and strict rules for newcomers. Heʼd give border agents better pay – like 10k sign-up bonus and bigger salary. About money things Trump says heʼll make US drill more oil stop helping green power projects; and put fees on stuff from other countries especially China
For world affairs Trumpʼs idea is simple – America comes first. Heʼs not too keen on helping NATO friends or Ukraine: saying Russia can do what it wants with countries that dont pay enough. Healthcare-wise he still wants to remove Obama-care but hasnt said what comes instead; though heʼd make family care-giving tax-free
About womenʼs health choices Trump stays in middle ground: letting each state pick its rules rather than making country-wide laws. He also wants to make test-tube baby help free for everyone
