Wall Street Journal: “Vice President Kamala Harris, who accepted the Democratic nomination on Thursday, has in her brief campaign offered a set of ideas and impulses about the course she would pursue as president, but with less detail than many candidates have provided in the past.”
“That may leave policy-focused voters frustrated as they consider how she would pay for her economic proposals, including an expanded child tax credit and help for first-time home buyers. She also hasn’t specified how she would handle pressing foreign policy matters, such as countering the rise of China and dealing with the Israel-Hamas war.”
“The Republican nominee, former President Donald Trump, for his part also has been scant with details: He has proposed ending taxes on Social Security benefits, but he hasn’t said how he’d cover the cost—estimated by independent analysts at $1.6 trillion or more—or handle the additional instability it would cause to the program’s solvency.”
