10 QUESTIONS FOR KAMALA HARRIS – Last night, CNN announced that Kamala has mustered up the courage to sit for a *joint* interview – after 39 days of hiding out from reporters.


Team Trump has 10 questions Dana Bash must ask Kamala Harris:


  1. If you are capable of lowering prices for Americans, why haven’t you done it in the 3½ years you have been in office?
  2. You say housing affordability would be a “Day One priority” if you were elected. Why is it not a priority now? Housing isn’t affordable for the average American in 99 percent of the nation.
  3. You co-sponsored Medicare-for-All and the Green New Deal? Do you still support these multi-trillion-dollar takeovers of the American economy?
  4. You talk a lot about “freedom.” What about the freedoms of Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, and Jocelyn Nungaray? These women were killed by illegal immigrants who were let into the country under your watch.
  5. President Trump didn't need a “border bill” to secure the border. Why did you support executive actions like stopping construction of the border wall and halting deportations that intentionally unsecured the border?
  6. Trump was the first president in decades to start no new wars. Under your watch, wars are popping up in Europe and the Middle East. Why is that?
  7. Why did you conceal Joe Biden's cognitive decline from the American people?
  8. You supported the Defund the Police movement and have said that more police doesn’t mean more safety. Why do you want fewer police officers?
  9. You’ve called for getting rid of cash bail and your campaign hasn’t backed away from it. Why do you still support such a radical view?
  10. You have sent anonymous aides out to claim you've abandoned the radically liberal positions that you've held for decades. Do you think lying to the American people is the best strategy?

Kamala Harris has a lot to answer for. These ten questions are only the beginning. Kamala must answer these questions, or she’ll prove (again) that she is unfit to be president of the United States. The American people deserve nothing less.

THE PRESIDENT AND DR. PHIL – President Trump recently sat down with Dr. Phil to discuss his vision for the country and the stakes for the American people this November.


Here are some highlights:



See the full must-watch interview here.

KAMALA MUST APOLOGIZE – Kamala Harris doesn’t just want to defund the police or take police out of schools. In 2020, she compared policing to slavery, lynching, and Jim Crow.


The National Association of Police Organizations is now calling on Kamala Harris to apologize for these disturbing comments.



In their words, “Vice President Harris: For your information, it is America’s law enforcement officers who daily combat deadly human trafficking, child abuse, abductions, illegal sweat shops, and modern slavery. Far from being today’s cruel slavers, the men and women of America’s police agencies are the single biggest force for public safety, freedom, and liberty in our nation.”

KAMALA VS. THE AMERICAN DREAM – A new report shows that home prices soared to another record high in June. Team Trump Rapid Response had reaction to “the most unaffordable housing market in history.”


The facts:

  • The cost of homeownership is at its highest in three decades – with the median housing payment increasing by nearly $1,000/month and overall housing costs up nearly 50% since Kamala took office.
  • The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate is around 6.5% –  a 135% jump since President Trump left office (2.77%).
  • The median home sales price was $412,300 in the second quarter of 2024 – a 22% jump since President Trump left office ($338,600 in the final quarter of 2020).
  • Americans need a six-figure salary to afford the typical home in nearly half of all U.S. states – a 50% jump over the last four years.
  • Almost half of all renters say they simply cannot afford to buy a home in this economy.

Meanwhile, economists warn Kamala’s so-called housing “assistance” plan would only worsen the affordability crisis by squeezing demand and causing prices to rise even more.


When President Trump left office, mortgage rates were low and housing was affordable. Kamala took office and brought the American Dream to the brink of extinction, and now she wants to finish the job of destroying it altogether.

THEY ARE LIES, NOT “FLIP-FLOPS” – Kamala Harris’s campaign has tried to erase her radical record from history. These desperate and fake pivots won’t work. They aren’t “flip-flops;” they are flat-out lies. She is too weak to defend her record because it is indefensible.


Team Trump is out with the facts:

  • MYTH: Kamala does not support an electric vehicle mandate.
  • MYTH: Kamala supports building the border wall.
  • MYTH: Kamala supports no taxes on tips.
  • MYTH: Kamala “would not ban fracking.”
    • Fact: Kamala has an unequivocal record of opposing fracking; in her words, “there is no question I am in favor of banning fracking.” Even today, her spokesman indicated she actually still opposes fracking despite comments from anonymous staffers.
  • MYTH: Kamala no longer supports eliminating hundreds of millions of Americans’ healthcare plans.
  • MYTH: Kamala won’t defund the police.
    • Fact: Kamala is a proud member of defunding the police, applauding municipalities who cut police budgets and calling for fewer cops on the streets.
  • MYTH: Kamala “no longer supports” the main tenants of the Green New Deal.
    • Fact: Kamala bragged that her Green New Deal was the most extreme, and even promised to eliminate the filibuster to force it through.
  • MYTH: Kamala doesn't support mandatory gun confiscation.
    • Fact: Kamala repeatedly said gun confiscation was a “good idea,” and pledged to take executive action to unilaterally implement it.

And that’s just the start of her flat-out lies to the American people. Reminder: Kamala has yet to personally disavow any of her dangerously liberal record.

KAMALA VS. SCHOOL SAFETY – Kamala wants to endanger our kids by getting “police officers out of schools.” Watch the video here.


KAMALA AGAINST FRACKING – Having trouble keeping up with Kamala’s lies about fracking? We don’t blame you. Bottom line: Yes, Kamala Harris still supports a ban on fracking; her top campaign spokesman just confirmed it.



In contrast, President Trump will unleash the power of American industry, roll back the regulatory stranglehold, and restore American energy dominance once again. For more, check out this piece from Team Trump.

 


TRUMP’S SOCIAL MEDIA DOMINATION – Don’t believe the fake news, President Trump is dominating on social media, and the metrics prove it.



This election is a contrast between “fake, fake, fake” Kamala Harris, and President Trump, who will “fight, fight, fight” for America!
