Biden and Harris have announced a historic price reduction for medications, saving seniors and Medicare billions of dollars. Harris's role in the Inflation Reduction Act contributed to the agreement.

She is also running as the new Democratic presidential candidate and plans to present her economic program. A TV debate between Harris and her Republican opponent Vance is scheduled for October 1, while Trump and Harris will have a debate on September 10. Nikki Haley, a former Republican presidential candidate, has criticized Trump's campaign.

Harris's campaign team was targeted by a foreign cyber attack. Trump has compared Harris to his wife Melania, and a live interview between him and Musk was disrupted by a massive cyber attack.

Trump has made allegations against the Democrats over alleged AI manipulation of photos after a long absence.

Trump's Criticism on Harris and Campaign Update

At a press conference in New Jersey, Donald Trump criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for her handling of inflation under the Biden administration, questioning her priorities and policy management skills. Despite advice to focus on policy failures rather than personal attacks, Trump reiterated unsubstantiated claims against Harris. His campaign also welcomed Corey Lewandowski and others. Seeking to shift the campaign focus to economic competence, Trump falsely claimed record inflation under Biden and exaggerated the impact on American families. Meanwhile, Harris proposes a federal ban on grocery price gouging to combat high food prices. Trump's stock market crash prediction if Harris is elected was refuted by a Fox News graphic showing market growth, amidst his rants on various unrelated topics at the press conference.

As his standing in the polls slides, Trump ramps up false attacks ... election integrity

Former President Donald Trump, facing declining poll numbers, is making false claims about election integrity on his social media platform Truth Social to undermine a potential loss. He falsely accuses Vice President Kamala Harris of using AI to boost her popularity and claims Judge Juan Merchan is improperly gagging him. Trump's fixation on grievances over the 2020 election alienates swing voters and distracts from key issues like inflation. Despite Trump's confidence, polls show a close race, with Harris in a stronger position than Biden was. Trump also faces prosecution in New York for falsifying business records. The Republican National Committee has launched an 'election integrity program' instead of focusing on voter outreach. Republican strategist Stephen Lawson warns that Trump's focus on grievances rather than issues may lead to the same outcome. In Pennsylvania, a rivalry between Senators Fetterman and Shapiro shapes state and national politics. Trump defiantly defends personal attacks on VP Harris, claiming he is 'entitled' to insults. At a press conference, Trump made exaggerated or misleading claims about the economy. Despite calls to focus on policy issues, Trump continues to target Harris personally. CNN cuts away from Trump's press conference as his opening statement drags on.
