Trump's economy speech veers into familiar territory: Personal attacks against Harris and Biden

Former President of America, Donald Trump on Wednesday made what was projected as a speech about his future economic vision but rather gave side information about President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, the Minnesota governor, Tim Walz, and wind turbines. 
 
Standing in front of a cheering audience in Asheville, North Carolina, this is in line with the advice given by his supporters and strategists to center the attacks on policy disparities between Trump and Harris. Despite calling a few areas in which the two differ on policy, Trump’s comments were undercut by attacks on leading Democrats. 
 
“For four years, she’s cackled as this economy has burned,” Trump said of Harris. Perhaps that was the laughter of a lunatic I exclaimed to the woman who chuckled at my comment and replied It’s true she is crazy. 
 
He also referred to her, and Biden as ‘stupid’ while he also, later on, referred to Walz as ‘a clown. ’ 
 
In the same interview, Trump declared that Wednesday’s event “isn’t a rally. This is, we’re talking about a thing called the economy. They wanted to do a speech on the economy. 
 
He did not identify who "they" are, but he added: They been telling us it is the most important subject. Crime I believe falls somewhere in between. The border is right there, literally. We have a lot of important subjects because in our country, which, unfortunately, has turn into the Third World state. " 
 
Yes, Trump did a relatively poor job providing policy details, but he did present a few initiatives, one of which was a new, undisclosed aim. 
 
Thus, in the context of a second term headed by him, the United States will decide for an unthinkable goal: bringing energy and electricity costs down at least by half in the first 18 months, he said. 
 
He then added in a quick caveat: ‘And if it doesn’t work out, you say, ‘Oh, well, I voted for him. I still got it down a lot. ’ 
 
Trump said on Wednesday that he would also bring prices down with rapid approval for new energy infrastructure as well as more land for drilling, and decreased regulation to make the country energy-dominant. 
 
The U. S. already registers more production in crude oil than any other country in history, this is according to the U. S. Energy Information Administration. 
 
Trump targeted Harris and Biden’s policies on the economy and on the border — two issues that his supporters have suggested he should focus on more in his speeches on the trail. 
 
“Kamala has said, look, I will fight inflation and it will be Day One,” Trump remarked, “but Day One for Kamala was 3½ years ago. Why didn’t she do it?” 
 
Critic,” he said, “that’s all she is. ” 
 
Trump also said that if Harris takes the presidency, ‘the outcome shall be a Kamala economic breakdown, a type of depression similar to what occurred in 1929’ He had once made the same prediction over Biden in 2020. 
 
They also contained numerous other asides – such as his regularly voiced dislike of subsidising wind and solar energy – and a jibe at Biden with reference to the Democratic Party’s nominating convention in Chicago the following week. 
 
‘You know when he’s speaking? On Monday’, Monday is — that’s the worst day, but that’s what they do and it’s their own form of — it’s just another, I guess, relatively, it’s a minor form of cheating,’ he said.
