President Donald Trump flipped the script on Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday, releasing his list of her “Kamala’s Project 2025” goals.
Trump shared the list on his X account to contrast her false claims that he is a supporter of a conservative list of policies known as Project 2025.
The list included, “Citizenship for 20 million illegals,” and a ban on gas-powered cars..
Other policies included her past focus on defunding police, banning fracking, transgender surgeries for minors and taxpayer-funded reparations.
In a separate post on X, Trump reminded voters that, “Day One for Kamala was 3 ½ years ago.”
He added visuals of the, “Cost of Kamala’s inflation on average family since 2021.” The Joint Economic Committee information cited an increase of $27,681 in Michigan, a $26,876 increase in Wisconsin and a $33,740 increase in Nevada.”
Other nationwide increases cited in Trump’s post included gasoline (up 51 percent), electricity (up 32 percent) and groceries (up 22 percent).
A Trump campaign statement released on Wednesday also blasted the Harris manufacturing plan.
“Kamala doesn’t support manufacturing. Kamala killed 24,000 manufacturing jobs last month alone — and after nearly four years, ‘created’ just 32,000 manufacturing jobs when taking into account jobs added back post-pandemic and massive downward revisions. In fact, manufacturing has been on the decline since she took office as the industry sees some of the fastest contractions on record,” it read.
“’Tax Queen’ Kamala’s plan to keep manufacturing jobs in America? A 33% tax hike on all domestic production, the largest capital gains tax hike in history, a wealth confiscation tax on unrealized capital gains, a massive national energy tax — and more,” it added.
An August commentary from the Heritage Foundation revealed major concerns related to the Biden-Harris administration’s manufacturing efforts.
“Under President Biden, government spending has increased by trillions of dollars, including hundreds of billions in manufacturing subsidies for politically favored industries such as green energy. This has artificially boosted key numbers like gross domestic product and construction spending in the manufacturing sector,” wrote EJ Antoni, Research Fellow at the Grover M. Hermann Center, and Peter St Onge, Visiting Fellow and Mark A. Kolokotrones Fellow.
“But, going by the history of political handouts, many of the new factories and facilities being built are not going to produce anything that consumers want, wasting resources that could have been used to truly build up our manufacturing base,” they added.
