Former President Donald Trump visited Savannah to deliver an economic pitch to Georgia voters. Trump promised to rebuild manufacturing, impose heavy tariffs on exported goods, and offer tax reductions for companies investing in the US. The Harris campaign criticized his plan as a “Trump tax,” warning of increased costs for consumers.
Trump also targeted Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden for high inflation rates. He praised Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, signaling a reconciliation between the two Republicans. Trump’s campaign aims to win over suburban voters and swing states with a focus on the economy.
Meanwhile, the Harris campaign highlighted abortion rights as a key issue, with Mark Cuban criticizing Trump’s economic plan. Georgia voters listed the economy and abortion as their top concerns in a recent poll. Harris was favored on the abortion issue, while Trump won on the economy.
As Trump spoke in Savannah, Harris allies gathered in Atlanta to criticize his record on reproductive rights. Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms warned of the risks posed by another Trump term. The DNC funded billboards in Savannah linking Trump to the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
The upcoming election in Georgia promises to be a tight race, with Trump and Harris competing on economic policies and social issues. Both campaigns are mobilizing supporters and targeting key voter demographics.
