The Harris and Trump debate showdown focused on these key economic policies
==========
The first presidential debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump occurred on September 11, 2024. The debate centered on economic issues, with both candidates defending their records. Harris emphasized her middle-class upbringing and proposed an 'opportunity economy' with tax cuts for families and small businesses. Trump promised tax cuts and tariffs on other countries, particularly China, denying claims of a 'Trump sales tax.' Harris criticized Trump's presidency for trade deficits and inflation, while Trump blamed the Biden-Harris administration for high inflation. Harris proposed increasing the child tax credit from $2,000 to $6,000 and a $50,000 tax deduction for small businesses. The debate also included personal attacks, with Trump labeling Harris a Marxist and Harris referencing Trump's wealthy background. Voters will soon weigh in on the debate performance as early ballots are distributed.
