The American Dream is Slipping Away

September 9, 2024

Under Kamala Harris, the American Dream is slipping away and it’s hardworking families who are paying the price. Americans still overwhelmingly want what generations before them had-a home to call their own, the ability to raise a family, and a comfortable retirement. But Kamala Harris, with her disastrous policies, is singlehandedly destroying these aspirations.

A July Wall Street Journal/NORC poll of 1,502 U.S. adults reveals a staggering disconnect between what Americans want and what they can actually achieve under Kamala’s watch. While 89% of respondents believe owning a home is crucial to their vision of the future, only 10% think it’s even remotely achievable. Even worse, while 96% and 95% of Americans say financial security and retirement, respectively, are essential, less than 10% believe they can actually achieve either in Kamala’s America.

A dozen years ago, over half of Americans still believed the American Dream was within reach. Today, only about a third feel that way. 

What changed? Kamala Harris took office.

Under Kamala’s reign, homeownership is no longer a dream, but a fantasy. Owning a home is now a staggering 47% more expensive than renting. And that’s not because rent is cheap - rent has also soared under Kamala’s weak leadership, forcing millions to choose between paying rent or saving for a home they’ll likely never afford.

Who’s to blame? Kamala Harris and her reckless “Kamalanomics.” In the past 12 months alone, nearly 1.3 million workers have lost their jobs. The typical American family has been bled dry, losing over $28,000 due to Harris’ out-of-control inflation. And now, families need to earn $110,000 a year just to afford a typical home, leaving 65% of households locked out of the American Dream.

Kamala’s failed economic policies are crushing the American spirit, but Americans aren’t fooled. They know it’s time for a change. They’ll elect President Donald J. Trump in November to rescue the American Dream from Kamala’s nightmare and Make America Affordable Again. The choice is clear: Kamala’s America of financial ruin and stagnation or President Trump’s America of prosperity and hope that our country deserves.
