Harris went all-in on the middle class. She shared her personal story of being a “middle-class kid,” pledging tax cuts for families and deductions for small businesses. In contrast, she portrayed Trump as the “billionaire’s buddy”, focused more on helping the ultra-rich. 
The Vice President stated that it is time for a *new generation of leadership* and argued that Trump’s policies were a thing of the past. The former President in a reply mentioned that&nbsp; 80-90% of Americans thought the economy was better under him. YouGov/CBS News polls show that&nbsp; 65% thought the economy was good under Trump.
