Presidential Policies Summary (Major Update)
Presidential Prospective Policies: A Summary Comparison
Presidential Policy Comparison (Author Major Update)
Introduction
In the complex landscape of American politics, understanding the probable policy positions of presidential candidates is crucial for voters. This report aims to present a factual comparison of the policies proposed by former Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald J. Trump as they seek the presidency. The objective is to inform voters about policy differences that will seriously affect absolutely critical decisions for the future of the United States.
1. Abortion Rights
Kamala Harris advocates for restoring the alleged constitutional right to abortion, as previously protected under Roe v. Wade. She supports the Equality Act to ensure rights for the LGBT community and DEI. Although Harris has not birthed a child, she is for total unrestricted abortion up to the end of 9th month of pregnancy, and government financing of abortions.
Donald J. Trump prefers to leave abortion regulations to the states, except in instances of rape, incest, and the health of the mother, following recent Supreme Court decisions. He does not support what he claims is Communist/Marxist Diversity Equity Inclusion (DEI) ideas.
2. Border Security
Kamala Harris faced challenges with over ten million illegal crossings and related serious crimes and youth illegal drug deaths during her four years as VP. Despite her efforts, critics argue that her policies have not effectively stemmed the flow of illegal migration or drugs.
Donald J. Trump aims to secure the border through barriers and enforcing immigration policies, including returning millions of illegal criminals to back to their countries of origin. (Surveys show that sixty million, or 16% of the population, were not born in the U S, which will cause economic, criminal, education, employment and security issues, as reported in France's demographic shifts in population) Opposition in Congress has hindered Trump's efforts, although he was successful in stopping the illegal invasion of the U.S. border in 2017-2020.
3. Higher Education
Kamala Harris supports providing unlimited free higher education, despite Supreme Court rulings questioning the constitutionality of executive's authority to allocate funds without congressional approval. Leading democrats plan to “stack the court” with more liberal justices and limit the retirement age of future justices.
Donald J. Trump adheres to Supreme Court decisions and does not support unilateral executive action to fund higher education, which he believes is an attempt by Biden-Harris team to “buy youth votes.” He supports funding more trade schools that offer high incomes.
4. National Healthcare
News Summaries
Healthcare Declines in U.S. A new report by the Commonwealth Fund reveals the United States ranks the lowest among 10 high-income nations in key health care metrics, despite spending the most on health care. The U.S. lags significantly in health outcomes and access to care, with Americans experiencing the shortest life expectancies and highest rates of deaths.
When Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsed former President Donald Trump for the presidency, he told people to support Trump against Kamala Harris based on what he sees as a “war on our children.” Healthy boys and girls are having their genitals and sexual organs destroyed, and Kamala and her Democratic allies in the Senate not only thinks that is acceptable but are forcing taxpayers to pay for it.
Kamala Harris plans to expand "Obamacare" nationwide, reducing private healthcare and significantly increasing welfare costs, and the U.S. debt. Interest alone on our debt has now reached one trillion dollars, and inflation associated with Medicare and Social Security, among other uncontrolled Fed spending, will be unsustainable. That's our biggest future risk!
Donald J. Trump seeks congressional approval for reforms that support greater private medical insurance and strengthens Medicare and Social Security financially without expanding national healthcare and inflation. When RFK, Jr. is on Trump's team, his goal with Elon Musk, will be to improve Fed efficiency and stop Marxist ideology “war on our children.”
5. Energy Security
Kamala Harris supports International Green Climate Agreements and renewable energy initiatives, though she has faced criticism for her shifting stance on fracking in an attempt to pacify Pennsylvania voters. All international agreements require congressional approval.
Donald J. Trump opposes spending on climate change initiatives without robust scientific validation, emphasizing the critical need of fossil fuels for essential industry and military requirements, while questioning the impact of renewable energy policies on poorer nations.
6. Affordable Housing
Kamala Harris proposes extensive federal financial support of up to $25,000 for new buyers of housing, although such costly plans would require congressional approval. It is perhaps a revival of failed mortgage lending policies from the Bush and Obama administrations.
Donald J. Trump does not support expansive federal spending on housing, arguing it risks severe economic instability, which occurred before the 2009 Obama administration, which deceptively offered the poor unaffordable "idealistic" mortgages, which later ballooned.
7. Crime and Punishment
President Joe Biden nominated the Southern Florida U.S. Attorney investigation into the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, who in 2022 was the man in charge of the same office that worked with federal officials on an investigation that led to the Mar-a-Lago raid on Trump previously.
Former President Donald Trump and his campaign called out Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden after it was?revealed?that Iran supplied Trump’s opponents with “stolen material” from inside Trump’s campaign.
Kamala Harris has evolved from a strict California Prosecutor to “Defund the Police” policy in recent criminal justice posture. She continues to support initiatives aimed at significantly lowering bail and reducing incarceration rates for many criminal offenses.

Donald J. Trump emphasizes law and order, advocating for “Fund the Police” against crime and supports the prompt use of the National Guard to assist in domestic disturbances when requested by states, such as the prior Seattle riots.
8. Economy and Inflation
Biden highlights significant economic progress:
President Joe Biden highlighted significant economic progress during his tenure, backed by legislative efforts like the American Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act. While the Federal Reserve's recent interest rate cuts signal a positive shift, it is not a declaration of victory but rather progress. Biden acknowledged ongoing economic challenges, especially in reducing costs for families and addressing childcare and housing issues.
Biden-Kamala Harris Inflation Reduction Act policies have actually seriously increased inflation rates to a high of 9.1 percent, with recent decreases attributed to economic improvements after the Covid-19 pandemic, after the drastic Biden-Harris mandates over schools, churches, small businesses and military personnel, which harmed the economy.
Teamsters refraining from endorsing any candidate
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters has made history by refraining from endorsing any candidate, marking the first time in nearly 30 years they have not backed a presidential nominee, citing dissatisfaction with both Trump and Harris. Internal polling revealed a shift among Teamsters members from supporting Biden to a majority favoring Trump after Biden's exit from the race.
Donald J. Trump's administration policies will focus on significantly reducing government regulations and taxes, which were effective in economic growth and controlling inflation.
9. Military Defense
Iran-backed plot to assassinate Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
Moti Maman, a 73-year-old Israeli businessman, has been arrested and indicted for participating in an Iran-backed plot to assassinate Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and high-ranking officials, including Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar. Maman reportedly traveled to Iran twice, where Iranian intelligence offered him tasks involving violent actions against Israeli targets, proposing a payment of $1 million.
Kamala Harris supports a strong military but emphasizes strategic international engagement with NATO and other alliances rather than unilateral military actions. The Biden-Harris abrupt withdrawal in Afghanistan and support of Iranian Agreement, with pacifying billions in payments (not approved by congress.) has caused loss of military creditability, greater funding of terrorism, which ultimately led to Ukraine-Russia and Iran-Israel major military conflicts.?
Donald J. Trump policy advocates for increased military funding and a more isolationist stance, focusing more on “America First” in conflicts in China, Europe, and the Middle East. He supports a much stronger military to avoid future conflicts and is against appeasement efforts by the former Obama and Biden-Harris with Iran. Trump believes in a “Peace through Strength” policy, which has avoided wars during his earlier administration.
10. Post-Modernism Ideology Practices
Privacy legislation is needed to protect consumers from abusive data practices.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has released a comprehensive report accusing nine major social media and video streaming companies, including Meta, Tik-Tok, and YouTube, of engaging in extensive surveillance practices to monetize user data. These companies collect, store, and monetize vast amounts of personal data, often without adequate safeguards. The FTC found that these practices are especially troubling for children and teenagers not provided with privacy protections.
Harris praised popular Hip-Hop (Diddy) Combs for hosting a fundraiser for her campaign. Sean 'Diddy' Combs was recently arrested in New York and charged with major sex trafficking and racketeering after a grand jury indictment. The charges detail allegations that Combs induced women and male sex workers into drugged sexual performances, and other alleged acts, such as using videos for bribes or black mail against well-known personalities.
Kamala Harris claims she always kept her values. What are her values? She is against Christian moral beliefs. She supports abortion including the 9th month. She's for same-sex marriage and LGBT. Her new Marxist beliefs include support for Critical Race Theory and Woke ideology.
Donald J. Trump is strongly against Socialism, Communism, and Marxism “Utopian Ideology.” He is against CRT and Woke, and Communist failed ideas. He supports Capitalism, free speech, free press, freedom of religion, free markets and public candid discussion of all ideas.
Conclusion: This report highlights the significant policy distinctions between Kamala Harris and Donald J. Trump, providing voters with limited insights into their potential presidential agendas. As the election approaches, understanding these policies is essential for making informed decisions about the future leadership of the United States.
