Trump slams Harris on economy ahead of major policy rollout

"Under Kamala Harris and crooked Joe Biden, the American Dream is dead. You don't hear about the American Dream anymore -- it's dead," Trump said in Asheville, a liberal enclave in the crucial swing state of North Carolina. Trump conceded that inflation was "starting to maybe get under control" but also claimed that Harris "has crackled as the American economy has burned" -- possibly meaning "cackled," a word he has used to describe her laugh. He yelled," the Harris campaign said in a statement. "Building up the middle class will be the defining goal of Vice President Harris's presidency," Harris campaign spokesman Ammar Moussa said in a statement.
