During a speech in Asheville, North Carolina, former President Trump linked Kamala Harris to Joe Biden's economic record, claiming they are a 'team' responsible for inflation and a potential 'economic crash.' Trump made vague promises for his second term, including slashing energy prices and keeping the Affordable Care Act.

However, the economy has been in a sustained upswing under Biden. Trump acknowledged his energy price goal may not work out, repeatedly insulted Harris, and pushed the baseless idea of Biden's comeback.

He also suggested crime and the border may be more important issues than the economy. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris plans to focus on lowering the costs of groceries, housing, and healthcare in her economic plan.

She aims to address the housing crisis, maintain Biden's tax pledge, and counter Trump's attempt to tie her to Biden's record. Trump's speech in North Carolina was marked by personal attacks on Harris and a mix of policy proposals and rambling delivery.
