Why Harris may win US election
However, Kamala Harris has a strong chance of winning the US presidential election, and here are five reasons why:
Strong fundraising numbers
Harris's campaign has raised over $1 billion, surpassing Trump's $853 million, with a significant portion coming from small-dollar donations.
This impressive fundraising haul demonstrates her ability to mobilize grassroots support.
Broad democratic support
As the official Democratic nominee, Harris has secured endorsements from key party leaders and stakeholders, solidifying her position as the party's unified choice.
Progressive policy platform
Harris advocates for national protections, LGBT+ rights, gun control, and legislation to address climate change, resonating with progressive voters.
Her "populist" economic agenda, including measures to cap prescription drug costs and expand the child tax credit, may also appeal to a broader audience.
Effective campaign strategy
Harris's campaign has strategically utilized social media, leveraging internet memes and catchy slogans to boost enthusiasm and connect with younger voters.
Her choice of running mate, Tim Walz, has also helped expand her support base.
Contrast with Donald Trump
Harris's campaign has highlighted the differences between her policy proposals and Trump's, potentially appealing to voters seeking change.
By emphasizing her commitment to issues like healthcare, education, and social justice, Harris may attract voters dissatisfied with Trump's presidency.
Trump says 'obnoxious' tariffs will bring factories to US
In a recent report on YEN.com.gh US Republican candidate Donald Trump has said that companies will drop plans to build factories overseas when faced with the threat of high tariffs on shipping goods to the United States.
"The higher the tariff, the more likely it is that the company will come into the United States," the former president Trump told an audience at the Economic Club of Chicago.
"You make it so high, so horrible, so obnoxious" companies will "come right away," he added.
During the hour-long interview, Trump pushed back at arguments that tariffs would hike costs for consumers and punish businesses faced with higher-priced imports.
