Donald Trump recently took the proverbial gloves off when it comes to Kamala Harris’ economic competence, dubbing her promises to support blue-collar workers as little more than hot air. He pointed out her lengthy tenure as Vice President, suggesting that the time for empty pledges is over. After nearly four years in the White House, it’s baffling why Harris hasn’t put her supposed plans into action. It seems she’s been too busy with grandstanding rather than making tangible changes to help struggling American families.
In a fiery speech in North Carolina, Trump made it crystal clear that he isn’t buying what Harris is selling. She’s planning to reveal her grand “vision” to boost the manufacturing sector and stimulate the economy, but Trump asks the tough question: where has she been all this time? The American people, particularly those in the manufacturing sector, need results now— not just talk of future plans. According to Trump, if Harris truly has a plan, she better hurry up and implement it instead of making speeches that echo through the halls of power.

Waiting for Harris to step up on immigration isn’t much different. As her first stop as the Democratic presidential nominee is set to be the U.S.-Mexico border, many are left scratching their heads wondering why it took this long and what, if anything, she plans to actually do. With the economy and immigration ranking high on voters’ lists of concerns, Trump reminded the audience that poll after poll shows Americans have more faith in his leadership on these issues than in Harris or Biden.
Despite a few glimmers of optimism surrounding inflation reduction and rising wages, listeners were treated to Trump’s signature fiery rhetoric warning that Harris has been nothing short of a disaster. Referred to as the “tax queen” and a “one-woman economic wrecking ball,” he accused her of being out of touch with the economic struggles faced by everyday Americans. As Harris gears up for another round of finger-pointing at Trump’s tariffs, he asserts that without his previous policies, manufacturing workers in North Carolina would have been left in the lurch.
What separates Trump from Harris, according to his recent remarks, is his proven track record. He suggested that those corporate tax cuts he plans, dropping the rate from 21% to 15% for companies relocating to the U.S., are designed to not just keep jobs at home but also encourage businesses to think twice before heading overseas. His assertion that such a plan would lead to foreign companies relocating their factories back to the U.S. reinforces the belief that his administration values American labor above all.
With Trump’s bold vision to reclaim American manufacturing and boost the economy, he portrays himself as the savior workers need. He confidently predicted that under his policies, it wouldn’t be American workers who feared losing jobs but foreign workers looking over their shoulders. In his eyes, the message is clear: America is coming back, and it’s time to bring the jobs and factories along for the ride.
