(VitalNews.org) – Donald Trump has said that he plans to stop United States businesses from offshoring jobs, and he’s also planned to take other countries’ jobs and factories through tariffs, a proposal that has received a lot of pushback.
One of the plans that former president Donald Trump pitched in Georgia was cutting the corporate rate from twenty-one percent down to fifteen percent. Vice President Kamala Harris has stated that she wants to raise the corporate tax rate to twenty-eight percent.
Trump said, “We’re putting America first.” He continued, “This new American industrialism will create millions and millions of jobs.”
Donald Trump has often pressed Kamala Harris on the economy, and he’s proposed using tariffs on imports to boost industry in the United States. However, U.S. economists have said that consumers in the United States would bear the cost of these tariffs.
“If you don’t make your product here, then you will have to pay a tariff, a very substantial tariff, when you send your product to the United States,” Trump said.
The former president hasn’t answered many specific questions regarding how this could change the impact or how much they cost. He also hasn’t spoken about what countries might be excluded and what China’s role would be.
The Republican nominee unveiled his plan in Georgia, a major battleground state, and has a port which is the busiest in the country for cargo that’s shipped in containers.
It’s the first battleground stop for Trump since the feud between Brian Kemp, the Republican Governor of Georgia, was squashed. Kemp has been endorsing Trump since they shook hands and made amends.
