Donald Trump has questioned whether voters are better off now than they were four years ago, using this as his closing argument leading up to the election. Both Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have tried to convince the electorate of their vastly different visions for the country, with Trump focusing on polarizing messages such as illegal immigration and personal attacks on Harris. These messages aim to highlight what Trump sees as his policy achievements and plans, including ending taxes on tips and reducing energy prices significantly in his first year.
Harris, on the other hand, has focused on a more traditional campaign approach, highlighting unity and consensus messaging. She has featured major celebrities at her rallies and planned a “closing argument” speech in Washington, D.C. at a location symbolizing a turning point away from extremism. However, Trump’s untraditional campaign tactics have been effective in mobilizing his base, even as he faces criticism for personal attacks, lies, and distortions in his final campaign pitch.
Despite facing backlash for racist rhetoric at a rally, Trump remains proud of his campaigning style, which is seen as a mix of personal attacks, aggressive politics, and policy assertions. His unscripted and rambling approach contrasts with Harris’ more disciplined and focused campaign style. Both candidates are making their final appeals to voters as the election draws near, with Trump aiming to close out what could be his third presidential campaign with rally speeches and aggressive messaging.
