[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish Walz had been more forceful on the economy which is biggest concern for undecided voters.

Economy has grown three times faster under than Trump. Trump also inherited a national economy that was in the black from
Obama and created a trillion dollar budget deficit with his tax break for billionaires. Harris/ Walz have many more policy ideas to help the middle class.  [/quote]

BBC: 
Between January 2017 and January 2021, average annual growth rate was 2.3%.
This period includes the slowdown and recovery of the economy as a result of the Covid pandemic.
Under the Biden administration so far, this figure is 2.2% - so almost the same.

One thing I can't figure:
Trump says tariffs on goods manufactured abroad, Vance said this will bring back jobs from the low paid workers in California. Tariffs would make those goods more expensive to Americans. But producing them in the US to get rid of cheap labor would also cause them to be more expensive. How does this work?

Vance also ignored the rapid growth of manufacturing jobs under Biden-Harris that has already taken place as a result of the legislation the democrats passed 9and that the GOP opposed)[/quote]
