Campaign Promises: President Donald Trump VS Kamala Harris

President Donald Trump and Kamala are both armed with grand plans to fix everything.

While some ideas could be pushed through with the magical stroke of a presidential pen, most of these promises will require Congress.

But does Kamala have the backing to make that happen?

And isn’t she supposed to be in the White House right now? Doesn’t she have any power right now to make things happen?

I guess she’s waiting to help out Americans if we vote her as President. ‘You want these prices down? Well I want to be President. Want to strike a deal?”

CBS News reports:

For months, former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have been making promises to the American people about what they’d do to improve the lives of Americans if elected president in the 2024 election. Their promises encompass climate, foreign policy, social issues, health care and, of course, taxes.

Some campaign promises may be fulfilled through the power of the pen with an executive action, while others would require congressional approval.

And some of her promises are very discriminating and prejudice.

Kamala proposes $20,000 "forgivable loans" to BLACK MEN ONLY in program called "The Opportunity Agenda"

I have a feeling that most Americans aren’t believing Kamala’s promises:

Even the media has a hard time swallowing what she’s selling:
