Kamala Harris Conducts First Solo Interview as Nominee

Kamala Harris conducted her first solo interview as the Democratic presidential nominee in Pennsylvania, addressing key issues such as the economy and gun control ahead of the November election. During the interview, she proposed a $50,000 tax deduction for small-business owners and a $25,000 down payment assistance for first-time homebuyers, though details about funding and qualification criteria were unclear. Harris faced criticism from Donald Trump, who remarked on her difficulty in answering questions and highlighted her previous proposal for a federal ban on food price gouging, which sparked backlash from economists. She expressed her support for constitutional gun rights while advocating for a ban on semi-automatic weapons, labeling them as tools of war. Additionally, Harris emphasized the need for unity over divisiveness in American leadership, contrasting her approach with Trump's rhetoric. The interview reflects her efforts to solidify her campaign message amid a tight race in battleground states.
