Trump"s Strategy: Highlighting Successes Against Harris in 2024

In a recent opinion piece, Lindsey Graham argues that Donald Trump should focus on his record of successes to defeat Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. He emphasizes that the Biden-Harris administration has faced significant criticism, particularly regarding the economy, with a Harvard-Harris poll indicating that 60% of voters perceive it as weak. Graham points out that Harris and Biden are responsible for rising grocery and utility prices, which have been exacerbated by government policies. Graham also highlights the deteriorating situation at the southern border, which has seen record illegal crossings since Harris took office. He criticizes her handling of immigration, noting that drug trafficking has surged during her tenure. Furthermore, he mentions her past support for the Green New Deal, which he claims would harm Pennsylvania's economy, and her previous endorsement of Medicare for All, which contradicts her current stance against single-payer health insurance. The opinion piece also addresses Harris's recent actions, including her absence during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address to Congress, which Graham interprets as a negative signal to terrorist organizations in the Middle East. He argues that these failures and contradictions should be central to Trump's campaign strategy. Ultimately, Graham concludes that a vigorous policy debate, rather than personal attacks, will be crucial for Trump to effectively challenge Harris and secure a victory in the election.
