  1. Economic: Harris said she believes in the ambition, desires, and dreams of the American people, which is why she envisions and actually has a plan to build what she calls an opportunity economy. Trump, on the other hand, said that the U.S. economy is in bad shape due to inflation, which can be called a national destroyer. (Democratic Party) has destroyed the economy.

  2. Immigration: Harris said that Trump talks a lot about immigration issues today, even though it is not the topic he raised. Trump said that our country is lost, we are a failed country, and he is referring to people who enter the U.S. illegally.

  3. Abortion: Harris said she assures people that once Congress passes a bill to restore protection for Roe v. Wade (a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that abortion is not unconstitutional), as President of the United States, she will proudly sign it into law. She also accused Trump of lying about not supporting a ban on abortion and said that once he is elected president, he will sign a national abortion ban.

  4. Assassination: Trump said regarding the previous assassination attempt, "I might get shot in the head because of the things they (Democratic Party) say about me."

  5. Tariffs: Defending his tariff proposal, Trump said, "They won't raise prices." Harris, on the other hand, claimed that Trump triggered a trade war.

  6. Taxation: Harris emphasized that providing a $50,000 tax credit for small business owners is a wise move. She attacked Trump's proposals, such as tax cuts for businesses, and believed that these proposals would harm American middle-class families.

  7. Energy: Harris stated that it is necessary to invest in multiple energy sources to reduce dependence on foreign oil. The domestic oil production in the U.S. has seen the largest increase in history. Trump accused that if Harris is elected, "fossil fuels will disappear," and he expressed his desire to repeal the Clean Energy Act, reclaim unused funds, and promised to declare a national energy emergency after being elected to increase U.S. oil and gas production significantly, "achieving a substantial increase in domestic energy supply."

  8. Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Harris said that a ceasefire agreement is needed on the Gaza issue and called for the release of hostages. She will always give Israel the ability to defend itself, but we must have a "two-state solution" to solve the Israeli-Palestinian issue. Trump criticized that if Harris is elected, he believes Israel will no longer exist within two years. At the same time, Trump criticized Iran for spreading money everywhere, pointing to the Houthi armed forces and Yemen
