Donald Trump accelerated his return to X on Sunday with a classic post offering a horror vision of what Kamala Harris would do if she beats him in November.
Much of her posts since returning to the site have seemed polished and PR-approved, but on Sunday she published a vintage post in which she wrote: “If you think things are expensive now, they will get 100 times WORSE if Kamala gets four years as president.”
“Under her plan, Kamala will implement Soviet-style price controls. Abolish private healthcare and sign California’s ridiculous tax policies into law, meaning ALL Americans will pay taxes on up to 80% of their income. If you want more CASH and less TAXES, VOTE TRUMP!”
About ten days ago, the vice president’s campaign unveiled Harris’ plan to ban price gouging at the federal level. It is a controversial policy that has drawn criticism from some economists who warned that such policies would not reduce food costs.
Economist Jason Furman, who served in the Obama administration, told the Washington Post that this could mean “greater shortages, reduced supply and, ultimately, the risk of higher prices and worse outcomes for consumers” if implemented in practice.

During her remarks, Harris said food prices remain too high. She said that as president she would “go after bad actors” and claimed that competition is “the lifeblood of our economy.”
But when she went to announce the price increase measure, the vice president ended up mispronouncing “speculation” instead of “measurement.”
“My plan will include new sanctions for opportunistic companies that take advantage of crises and break the rules, and we will support smaller food companies trying to comply with the rules and get ahead,” he said.
Harris praised some of the policies enacted during the Biden administration and said the U.S. economy has come a long way since the president took office during the coronavirus pandemic, with record job creation. But she acknowledged that prices remain too high.
Before her remarks, Republicans criticized the vice president for her economic agenda in a call with reporters. They accused her of copying Trump’s proposals and criticized other priorities, saying they “didn’t make sense.”
Republicans have pointed to inflation rates under the Trump administration compared to the Biden administration, blaming the current administration’s policies rather than supply chain challenges and shortages stemming from the coronavirus pandemic for high prices.
Trump, a former president and Republican candidate in 2024, returned to the social media platform, now owned by his close ally Elon Musk, just two weeks ago.
He had been banned from Twitter following the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Trump’s first post on X in nearly a year featured a highly produced, two-and-a-half-minute campaign ad.
The Republican candidate posted once on X in 2023, after Musk took over the site and shortly after he had his mugshot taken as part of the Georgia election interference case.
Shortly before noon on August 13, he resumed posting on his @RealDonaldTrump account, which now has 89.9 million followers.
Trump has gained more than eight million new followers since he started posting on X again.

The two and a half minute spot It was highly produced and included footage from Trump’s 2017 inauguration.
It also included news clips from the 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid and showed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tearing up Trump’s 2020 State of the Union address.
The ad showed Trump triumphantly entering an Ultimate Fighting Championship match with CEO Dana White, who introduced the Republican nominee at last month’s Republican National Convention.
In a later post, the former president asked: ‘Are you better off now than when I was president?’

Musk, who is also the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, endorsed Trump on the day the former president was shot at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“This is unscripted and unbounded in terms of topics, so it’s going to be very entertaining,” Musk wrote on X Sunday, previewing the interview with Trump.
Trump has stayed away from X so his supporters continue to flock to his own social media platform, Truth Social.
