In an 80-minute speech packed with familiar pledges and new proposals, Donald Trump introduced a unique tax benefit aimed at supporting caregivers. Speaking at the mega rally at Madison Square Garden, the former president promised tax breaks for Americans caring for sick or elderly relatives in their homes, a new addition to his campaign’s list of economic incentives.
“Supporting our families is part of building a stronger nation,” he stated, emphasizing his intent to make it financially easier for families handling caregiving responsibilities.
Deductible Interest on U.S.-Built Car Loans
Another significant economic pledge made by Trump was a proposal to make interest on car loans tax-deductible, but only for vehicles manufactured in the United States.
In an attempt to stimulate American manufacturing and appeal to working-class voters, he declared, “I will make interest on car loans fully tax-deductible — but only if they build that particular automobile right here in the USA.” This pledge is the latest in a series of Trump’s “America First” economic strategies, designed to boost domestic production and keep jobs at home.
Rallying Familiar Themes: Education, Immigration, and Peace
Trump’s rally also returned to some of his most popular promises. He reiterated his commitment to ban what he called “transgender insanity” from schools, pledging to overhaul current educational policies. “We’re going to get transgender insanity the hell out of our schools,” he asserted, gaining strong reactions from his supporters.
On immigration, Trump doubled down on his vow to “stop the invasion” at the southern border, calling it a national crisis. He painted a picture of tighter border security and promised a return to strict immigration policies if he is re-elected.
Promises of Peace in Ukraine and the Middle East
Addressing global conflicts, Trump reaffirmed his commitment to restoring peace in both Ukraine and the Middle East. He spoke confidently about his ability to negotiate and resolve international tensions, expressing his intention to “restore peace and stability” in these regions, areas where he believes the current administration has faltered.
Trump Wants Death Penalty for Illegal Migrants Who Commit Murder
He also pledged to pursue the death penalty for illegal immigrants found guilty of murdering U.S. citizens.
He expressed this policy as part of his broader commitment to law and order, particularly in response to rising concerns about violent crime and border security. Trump emphasized that this measure would act as a deterrent, underscoring his view that stricter consequences are necessary to protect American lives.
