Kamala Claims Price Controls Will Fix Price Gouging, But Vance Quickly Responds

While speaking in North Carolina on Friday, Vice President Kamala Harris attempted to send an economic message to the American people. During this speech, she tried to address the economic struggles that have long plagued Joe Biden’s America by proposing a ban on price gouging.

Unfortunately for Harris, however, it didn’t take long for this to backfire on her in a big way. Just two days later, Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance (R-OH) went on Fox News to completely shred Harris’ ridiculous economic plan.

While speaking to the Fox News host Shannon Bream, Vance said that American voters are “much smarter” than Harris and her team think they are. He also pointed out that she was “proud” to cast the tie-breaking vote in 2022 for the Biden administration’s Inflation Reduction Act, which many have argued has not reduced inflation at all.

From The Daily Caller:
“Giving Kamala Harris control over inflation policy, Shannon, it’s like giving Jeffrey Epstein control over human trafficking policy. The American people are much smarter than that,” Vance said. “They don’t buy the idea that Kamala Harris represents a fresh start; she is more of the same.”

Vance summarized the Harris campaign’s economic argument as “forget how good things were” when Trump was president.

“Donald Trump was already president. He already secured the wall, he already implemented tariffs which brought back 12,000 American factories [that] were built during Donald Trump’s administration, and prices were low and take-home pay was high,” Vance told Bream.

Harris Wants Voters To Forget Amazing Trump Economy 

Not stopping there, Vance went on to say that “the entire argument of the Kamala Harris campaign boils down to ‘forget how good things were when Donald Trump was president.’ forget that we had rising take-home pay, forget that we had low inflation, forget that we had peace all over the world.”

Check out Vance’s full comments in the video below.

Like many things that Trump and Vance present, this is spot on. Democrats and the mainstream media have teamed up to try and gaslight into making American voters believe that life in Trump’s America was far worse than it has been under Biden. In reality, the complete opposite is true in various ways, particularly regarding the economy.

Trump is a businessman who runs this country like a business. He showed that during his presidency and until the COVID-19 global pandemic, the nation prospered economically because of that. In contrast, Harris is a radically liberal career politician who doesn’t know the first thing about creating a good economy. If she makes it to the White House, she’ll be far too focused on her own woke agenda to do anything to fix an American economy that has fallen into crisis under Biden.

Once again, Vance’s latest comments remind us that the stakes of this presidential election could not be higher. Any American voter who claims to care about the economy cannot vote for Harris in good conscience.

Key Takeaways:

  • Harris lays out her ridiculous economic plan.
  • Vance demolishes Harris’ ideas to tackle inflation.
  • Harris wants voters to forget how good the economy was under Trump.
