<ul class="summary-list"><li>High costs are a critical concern for voters in the presidential election.</li><li>Detailed below is what <keyword id="19919589" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="harris" source="keywords">Harris</keyword> and <keyword id="19906203" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="trump" source="keywords">Trump</keyword> have proposed to lower costs for Americans.</li></ul>While the pace of inflation has slowed, Americans continue to struggle with high prices at gas stations, grocery stores, and more. Those high prices have become a key issue for voters as the presidential election approaches. Both Donald Trump and <keyword id="20307089" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="kamala-harris" source="keywords">Kamala Harris</keyword> have outlined plans they say will lower costs for Americans through various policies. In the second installment of BI's five-part series for the final stretch before the election, Business Insider is looking at the ways each candidate will impact how much things cost. From the Democratic perspective, an economic policy <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://kamalaharris.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Policy_Book_Economic-Opportunity.pdf">book</a> released by the Harris campaign said that she and her VP pick, Minnesota Governor <keyword id="20346532" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="tim-walz" source="keywords">Tim Walz</keyword>, "know that prices are still too high for middle-class families, which is why their top economic priorities will be lowering the costs of everyday needs." When reached for comment, the Harris campaign referred Business Insider to remarks on previously announced policies. Meanwhile, on the other side, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-platform-social-security-medicare-retirement-age-end-inflation-2024-7">Trump's platform</a> — which was adopted by the Republican National Committee in July — outlined 20 principles the former president would prioritize in a second term, one of which is: "End inflation, and make America affordable again." <keyword id="23762136" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="taylor-rogers" source="keywords">Taylor Rogers</keyword>, the Republican National Committee spokesperson, told BI in a statement that "Trump will once again cut taxes and unleash American energy to lower prices on groceries and other goods when we send him back to the White House." Here's how a Trump or Harris presidency would impact how much a handful of things cost, based on economic policy proposals the candidates have released. <h2>Groceries</h2>High food costs have remained a key concern for voters. According to a Pew Research Center <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/09/09/economic-ratings-and-concerns/">survey</a> conducted from the end of August to early September of over 9,000 adults, 74% of respondents said they were concerned about the high costs of groceries. In August, Harris released a plan to tackle high food costs by implementing a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/grocery-costs-inflation-kamala-harris-ban-price-gouging-election-trump-2024-8">federal ban on price gouging for groceries</a> during national emergencies. Dan Scheitrum, an associate agribusiness professor studying grocery price gouging at California Polytechnic State University, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-lower-grocery-prices-inflation-harris-price-gouging-proposal-2024-8">previously told BI</a> that Harris' proposal might not help much outside of a crisis, like a natural disaster or pandemic. "If you were to try and cut down grocery prices today, there's no state of emergency. So most price gouging protections wouldn't apply at all," Scheitrum said. Trump, on the other hand, said during a town hall in September that he would lower grocery prices by restricting food imports to bolster domestic producers. "Our farmers are being absolutely decimated right now. And, you know, one of the reasons is we allow a lot of farm product into our country," Trump said. When asked how he would lower grocery prices more recently during a Pennsylvania town hall in October, Trump's wide-ranging answer largely focused on immigration while saying that "we're going to do a lot of things" to manage high grocery prices. While details are minimal on Trump's plan to restrict food imports, it's on par with the former president's commitment to bolster tariffs in a second term — and it's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/where-does-trump-vance-stand-on-china-tariffs-inflation-taxes-2024-7">faced criticism from experts</a> who have said it would actually boost inflation. <h2>Housing</h2>High housing costs are another key issue. According to Harris' economic policy book, she would reduce rent and mortgage prices by building 3 million new housing units and expanding the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit, which allows private and nonprofit developers to build affordable rental housing. "Right now, a serious housing shortage is part of what is driving up cost," Harris said at a Las Vegas campaign event in September. Additionally, according to her campaign, Harris plans to give Americans up to $25,000 in down-payment assistance to help them finance their purchase of a home. Trump's platform said the former president would address housing affordability by promoting "homeownership through Tax Incentives and support for first-time buyers, and cut unnecessary Regulations that raise housing costs." The platform did not specify which regulations Trump would cut, but he said during a speech at the Economic Club of New York in September that "regulation costs 30% of a new home, and we will open up portions of federal land for large-scale housing construction." Rogers, the RNC spokesperson, told BI that Trump will "secure the border, ban mortgages for illegal immigrants who drive up the price of housing, and eliminate federal regulations driving up housing costs," and reiterated the promise to open up federal land for building. <h2>Imported goods</h2>Trump has pledged to impose a broad-based tariff ranging from 10-20% on all imports, potentially hiking the prices of most goods brought in from other countries. Imported goods that could be affected by the tariffs span a wide range of products. According to the Census Bureau, major US import categories that would be impacted include automobiles ($320 billion so far this year), drugs for human and veterinary use ($155 billion), food and beverage ($140 billion), furniture ($27 billion) and household appliances ($25 billion). And it's not just popular consumer goods that would cost more. Economists are also worried about the potential impact on imported iron and steel mill products. If those become more expensive, so would the products that use them as components. While Trump has insisted that other countries would pay for the tariffs, a wide range of economists agree that the price increases would largely fall on American businesses and households. For example, an <a target="_blank" href="https://taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/tpc-trump-tariffs-would-raise-household-taxes-and-slow-imports">analysis</a> from the Tax Policy Center found that all income groups would pay higher taxes as a result of Trump's tariffs, with the lowest-income households paying about $320 more in taxes and middle-income households paying $1,350 more. Harris has not offered much detail on her tariff plans. However, Biden implemented increased tariffs on products like steel, aluminum, and semiconductors, and Harris would likely continue those actions if she wins the election. Trump and Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, the GOP vice presidential nominee, have<a target="_blank" href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/full-vp-debate-transcript-walz-vance-2024/"> pointed out</a> that the Biden administration has maintained Trump-era tariffs on Chinese goods — in fact, Biden increased tariffs on roughly $15 billion of Chinese imports. <h2>Gas</h2>Few prices are more closely watched in politics than the cost of filling up at the gas station. Gas prices have spiked at times during the Biden-Harris administration, including in the summer of 2022, when they peaked at a national average over $5 a gallonbefore sliding back down to roughly $3 a gallon. Energy prices are also notoriously tricky because presidents don't have the power to control complex global and regional markets. Even when the White House taps the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, it's more of a symbolic gesture. Trump has <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/drill-baby-drill-donald-trump-oil-gas-rnc/story?id=112108980">promised</a> to "drill baby drill," vowing to empower the fossil fuel industry by cutting regulations and issuing more leases for drilling on federal lands. It's unclear how much more appetite oil producers have for expanding production. The Biden-Harris administration has also presided over a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/what-bidens-oil-record-means-for-the-industrys-future/">record high</a> for US oil production. Harris has vowed to go even further, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/energy-wonks-rejoice-harris-campaigns-on-permitting-reform/">calling</a> for more permitting reform. She also supports more federal subsidies for renewable energy. <h2>Prescription drugs</h2>As a candidate in 2016, Trump repeatedly promised to give the federal government the power to negotiate prescription drug prices, although he did not push through that measure as president. In the White House, Trump initially broke with the pharmaceuticalindustry by proposing to tie Medicare drug prices to international standards, but he has since <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://insidehealthpolicy.com/daily-news/trump-campaign-trump-won-t-pursue-most-favored-nation-policy-drugs">backed away</a> from theambitious cost-controlling policy. Sen. JD Vance, the GOP vice presidential nominee, has talked up drug pricing transparency. Harris has promised to expand two provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act, allowing Medicare to negotiate some drugs' prices. She wants to expand the law's $2,000 cap on drug spending and $35 monthly cap on insulin to all Americans. Correction: October 29, 2024 — An earlier version of this story misidentified one of the major US import categories. The category valued at $320 billion so far this year was automobiles, not a separate category involving drugs.

"The short answer is we don't know for sure — and probably not," said Mark Harvey, author of "Celebrity Influence: Politics, Persuasion, and Issue-Based Advocacy."Celebrity endorsements date back to Al Jolson's support for Warren Harding in the 1920 election, Harvey said, but most people vote on party identity, ideology, and issues.Cayce Myers, a public relations professor at Virginia Tech, told BI that celebrity endorsements tend to have "minimum impact." They can amplify attention and enthusiasm, but "it will not make you like a candidate that you already do not like."Democrats have more and higher-profile celebrity endorsements, Harvey said. But Trump's victory in 2016 shows how other factors prevail.<h2 id="08e814e6-5cce-4fd4-853c-ebfc1d3b0266">There could be some exceptions this year</h2>There could be some situations where an endorsement might matter, given the historically thin margins of this year's race.If the election comes down to a small number of votes, last-minute celebrity support could be "significant" on the voter turnout and fundraising fronts, Myers said.While there's little data on the issue, Harvey said <a target="_blank" class="" href="http://www.stat.columbia.edu/~gelman/stuff_for_blog/celebrityendorsements_garthwaitemoore.pdf">studies</a> have found an endorsement did unequivocally impact one race: when Oprah Winfrey came out for Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic Primary.Loren Kajikawa, a professor of music and culture at George Washington University, said music can provide a unique window into a candidate's persona.Harris "doesn't really make her identity a big part of explicitly her pitch to voters," he said, but aligning with Beyoncé — "another strong black female" — could reinforce her historic candidacy in a way that Swift's endorsement didn't.The Harris campaign is also being strategic by hosting events in celebrities' hometowns, Harvey said, with Eminem in Detroit, Julia Roberts in Georgia, and Beyoncé in Houston.The Friday rally remains unconfirmed, but it appears to have all of the makings of one of Beyoncé's masterfully-curated, eleventh-hour reveals — complete with a nod to her "Cowboy Carter" <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYG3YiyqY7U">duet partner</a>."Beyoncé knows how to make an entrance," Kajikawa said.

Surprising facts about the vice president's official residence, where Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff live

Set in a 20,000-seat stadium in the heart of deep-blue New York City, the former president's rally was intended to be part of a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-blue-cities-minority-voters-republican-campaign-2024-10">triumphant closing pitch</a>, one that highlighted his growing support among minority voters while generating media coverage about how Trump's economic message is resonating with voters in urban areas. Instead, things went off the rails. In the hours before Trump spoke, several guest speakers made offensive remarks. The radio host Sid Rosenberg, who once called the second gentleman Doug Emhoff “a crappy Jew,” said at the rally that Democrats are “a bunch of degenerates, lowlives, Jew-haters and lowlives. Every one of them. Every one of them.” <keyword id="19928515" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Tucker-Carlson" source="keywords">Tucker Carlson</keyword> mockingly described Vice President <keyword id="20307089" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kamala-Harris" source="keywords">Kamala Harris</keyword> as someone who would be "the first Samoan-Malaysian, low-IQ, former California prosecutor ever to be elected president." And Tony Hinchcliffe, a pro-Trump comedian, said Puerto Rico was a "floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean." Hinchcliffe's comments generated the most attention, drowning out coverage of Trump's actual speech and forcing the campaign to make the rare move of distancing itself from a rally speaker. "This joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign," Danielle Alvarez, a senior Trump campaign advisor, said in a statement. Coincidentally, Harris on Sunday was courting Puerto Rican voters in Philadelphia, where she announced a <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://x.com/KamalaHarris/status/1850667728417546296">new set of proposals</a> to boost the territory's economy. Pennsylvania is home to more than 450,000 Puerto Ricans, according to US Census data, the most of any major swing state. Multiple <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/puerto-rican-stars-support-kamala-harris-amid-trump-rally-controversy-2024-10">Puerto Rican celebrities</a>, including the rapper and singer Bad Bunny, showed support for Harris on Sunday. With just over one week to go until the election, Democrats may have just been handed one last opportunity to shake up the narrative of a presidential election that's grown calcified in recent weeks, with Trump slowly <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/2024/national/">eating into</a> a polling lead that Harris built after the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kamala-harris-donald-trump-presidential-debate-takeaways-2024-9">presidential debate</a> in September. "A week in politics is an absolute lifetime," said Mike Nellis, a Democratic strategist and the founder and CEO of the Democratic campaign firm Authentic, adding that Harris now "has an opportunity to reframe the race." <h2>'I want everyone in Philadelphia to see that clip'</h2>It remains to be seen whether and how Puerto Rican voters will respond to what happened on Sunday. Hinchcliffe, who did not respond to a request for comment, <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/TonyHinchcliffe/status/1850641658599399587">wrote on X</a> that Democrats have "no sense of humor" and that his joke had been "taken out of context." But several Republicans immediately saw the remarks as a liability, issuing condemnations on social media as the rally remained ongoing. That included Sen. Rick Scott and Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, both Republicans from Florida, which is home to more than 1.1 million Puerto Ricans. Rep. Anthony D'Esposito, a Republican of Puerto Rican descent who represents a swing district on Long Island, also <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/ANTHONYDESPO/status/1850705066610553073">condemned</a> the remarks. While Pennsylvania is home to the largest Puerto Rican population in a swing state — with communities in cities like Philadelphia and Reading — there are also more than 100,000 Puerto Ricans living in North Carolina and Georgia, two "Sun Belt" swing states. Trump has been trying this year to broaden his appeal among Latino voters, including by holding a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-bronx-campaign-event-gop-nyc-inflation-2024-5">rally in the Bronx</a> in May. He has primarily leaned into the economy, given that many voters maintain a positive view of the economy under the former president's tenure. Polling has <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/harris-trump-blue-wall-economic-message-unions-michigan-pennsylvania-wisconsin-2024-10">generally given Trump the edge</a> over Harris when it comes to handling the issue. Democrats have been quick to seize on Hinchcliffe's comments. During a <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1850636070137762225">Twitch stream</a> with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Gov. Tim Walz noted that there are "hundreds of thousands of Puerto Ricans across — in battleground states, that need to send them a message on this." "I want everyone in Philadelphia to see that clip," said Ocasio-Cortez, who is Puerto Rican. What remains to be seen is whether Democrats will put resources into making sure that happens. Spokespeople for the Harris campaign, along with Senate and House Democrats' campaign arms, did not respond to Business Insider's inquiries as to whether they would. But Nellis, the Democratic strategist, said that there's still time for Harris in particular to capitalize on the moment. "The Harris campaign has been pretty good about cutting new TV ads really quickly, so if they need to get stuff up on TV, they certainly can," Nellis said. Digital ads, however, could be more tricky. Beginning at 12:01am Pacific Time on Tuesday, Meta will not <a target="_blank" href="https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2024/09/30/upcoming-2024-restriction-period-for-us-ads/">allow campaigns to run any new political ads</a> on their social networks. That blackout period will last a week until 11:59pm on Election Night. Harris is set to deliver her own "closing argument" speech on Tuesday on the Ellipse in Washington, DC, where Trump held a rally shortly before a mob of his supporters stormed the US Capitol on January 6. Correction: October 29, 2024 — An earlier version of this story misstated the timing of a comment Sid Rosenberg made about Doug Emhoff. Rosenberg called Emhoff “a crappy Jew” on his radio show in July, not at the rally.

Lean In did not provide further comment when reached by Business Insider.<a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/joe-biden-dropping-out-what-happens-next-2024-7">President Joe Biden</a> announced Sunday he was withdrawing from the race after weeks of speculation and pressure from Democrats following his poor debate performance in June. Biden quickly threw his support behind Harris to become the Democratic nominee in his place.<a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/kamala-harris-raises-81-million-in-24-hours-breaks-record-2024-7">Harris's campaign</a> has already been met with enthusiasm by the party and donors, drawing in a record $81 million in a single day.Harris delivered her <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1eaJbaEMzEZGX">first campaign speech</a> on Monday at her Delaware campaign headquarters. She touched on issues that included abortion rights and healthcare, and said she and Trump have "two different visions of the future of our country," adding he wants "to take our country backward to a time before many of our fellow Americans had full freedoms and rights."Biden also spoke via zoom during the speech, telling Harris, "I'm watching you, kid. I love you."Sandberg is among the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/business-leaders-billionaires-respond-biden-drops-out-elon-musk-2024-7#george-and-alex-soros-16">tech and business leaders</a> who have spoken out since Biden dropped out of the race and Harris entered it.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Nancy Pelosi has endorsed VP Kamala Harris to be the Democratic presidential nominee.</li><li>The former House speaker played a major role in the effort to push Biden aside.</li></ul>Vice President Kamala Harris just landed another major endorsement as she <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/joe-biden-dropping-out-what-happens-next-2024-7">barrels toward</a> the Democratic nomination: former Speaker Nancy Pelosi.In a statement, Pelosi noted that she'd known Harris "for decades" — Harris began her political career in San Francisco, which Pelosi has represented in Congress since the 1980s."Kamala Harris as a woman in politics is brilliantly astute — and I have full confidence that she will lead us to victory in November," Pelosi said.The former House speaker <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/biden-pelosi-lord-almighty-step-aside-election-2024-7">played a major behind-the-scenes role</a> in the intra-Democratic push to get President Joe Biden to withdraw from the race.But that role was, at times, public, too. After Biden appeared to tamp down calls for his withdrawal two weeks ago, Pelosi <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/pelosi-biden-presidential-race-democrats-debate-2024-7">went on Morning Joe</a> and seemingly reopened the issue once more.When Biden withdrew on Sunday, Pelosi did not immediately endorse Harris — she had <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/07/19/pelosi-support-open-nomination-biden-drop-out-00169893">reportedly</a> expressed support for a more wide-open nomination process in private.Yet that appears unlikely to happen, with Harris locking down the support of most Democratic senators and House members over the last 24 hours.
