Trump's published economic policy points include reducing taxes for the middle class, increasing the child tax credit, and attempting to increase job opportunities by "slashing job-killing regulations". His campaign website argues that he increased "real wages" and household income, while poverty went down during his time in office. He promises to lower taxes, increase paychecks, and increase job opportunities.
Trump's campaign website argues that we cannot have free and open trade when some other countries are exploitative of it. He primarily focuses on changes he made during his time in office, including stopping the Trans-Pacific Partnership, replacing NAFTA with USMCA, and talks about fixing "unfair" foreign trade policies, and implementing tariffs. For his 2024 campaign, he promises to reduce reliance on China, specifically in the medical, security, and infrastructure industries.
