With such a solid case for Trump and against Harris, why is Harris a challenge for Trump? The answer is character, or at least perceived character.
When you are close with someone, defining their character is simple. But for most of us, to determine the character of President Trump or Vice President Harris, the best we can do is rely on information from their recorded history or other people.
The most reliable source for defining someone’s character is their actions, which for a political candidate who has a record, in addition to personal actions, we must consider the policies they worked to advance and the good or harm that came from them. As seen in the policy comparisons above, Trump’s policies present a far better character than Harris.
The least reliable source would be an adversary, especially when power is at stake, as is the case with elections. Yet, for millions of Americans they have learned about Trump’s character almost entirely from his adversaries’ perspective and millions have become so terrified of Trump being president that they have almost no interest in how America and the world did under Trump vs. Harris. They are fixed on “Trump must be defeated!” And for some, at any cost. The number of people who expressed disappointment that Trump was not successfully assassinated is shocking!
