President Donald J. Trump to Hold a Rally in Wilmington, NC on Jobs, Inflation, and the Economy

September 13, 2024

President Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America, will hold a rally in Wilmington, NC on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at 2:00PM EST. 

 

Under Kamala Harris, the American Dream is slipping away and it’s hardworking North Carolinians who are paying the price. Americans still overwhelmingly want what generations before them had—a home to call their own, the ability to raise a family, and a comfortable retirement. But Kamala Harris, with her disastrous policies, is singlehandedly destroying these aspirations.

 

North Carolinians are trapped in a nightmare where both housing costs and rent prices have skyrocketed beyond control. Since Kamala Harris and Joe Biden took office, home prices have surged by 40%, jumping from an average of $240,374 to a staggering $335,760. And for those looking to rent? The situation is just as grim. There are 326,751 extremely low-income households in North Carolina, yet only 130,930 affordable rental homes available, leaving a brutal gap that offers just 40 affordable homes for every 100 struggling families. It’s no wonder that over 70% of these families are forced to spend more than half their income just to keep a roof over their heads.

 

A recent report from the North Carolina Housing Coalition showed that nearly half of North Carolina renters are being crushed under the weight of unaffordable rents. Fair market rent has skyrocketed by 38% in the last five years. It’s no surprise that over half of North Carolinians are tightening their belts as inflation decimates their financial stability, with 50.2% identifying it as the most pressing issue facing the state. Kamala Harris is failing North Carolina, plain and simple.

 

President Trump can be trusted to restore the American Dream because he has a real plan to defeat inflation, bring down mortgage rates, and make purchasing a home more affordable.
