Vice President Kamala Harris is currently in Pennsylvania preparing for the upcoming debate scheduled to take place in Philadelphia in three days. Meanwhile, former President Trump is on the campaign trail in Wisconsin, where he is about to hold a rally.
During his rally in Wisconsin, Trump is expected to focus on the theme of 'draining the swamp,' a term commonly used by Republicans to criticize political corruption. He aims to tie Harris to this narrative and emphasize her connection to Joe Biden's policies. Additionally, Trump will address economic issues, a topic where he polls better than Harris.
Wisconsin is a crucial battleground state that Trump won in 2016 but lost to Biden in 2020. Recent polls show Harris leading Trump in Wisconsin, indicating a competitive race in the state.
Trump recently outlined some of his economic proposals, including imposing tariffs on imports, reducing regulations, and further lowering the corporate tax rate to 15%. However, critics argue that these policies could lead to increased inflation.
Despite Trump's aversion to formal debate preparation, he has been engaging in policy sessions with advisors, experts, and allies to get ready for the upcoming debate. He has also sought insights from former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, who has provided him with information on Harris' debate style.
Trump's campaign asserts that his interactions with the public and sharpening of policy positions during events like rallies serve as a form of preparation for the debate. The key points Trump addresses during his rally in Wisconsin are likely to be reiterated during the debate in Philadelphia on Tuesday.
