Former President and Republican candidate for the US presidential elections, Donald Trump (2017-2021), said this Thursday that if Democratic candidate Kamala Harris wins the elections, he will apply policies “of Venezuela or the Soviet Union (USSR)” in the United States.
Harris “is coming in with the Maduro plan. We call it the Maduro plan, it’s something straight out of Venezuela or the Soviet Union,” Trump said at a press conference at his private golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, alluding to his rival’s “communist price control proposal.”
The site is located just over 70 kilometers from New York City and is where the former president spent the night after suffering an assassination attempt last month in Pennsylvania.
Trump began his speech at the golf club with a speech focused on the country’s economic situation, and referred to the candidate’s proposal, put forward by her campaign today, on a federal ban on corporate speculation on food prices in her first 100 days as president.
Days ago, during his interview on X with Elon Musk, Trump hinted that he could flee to Venezuela if he loses the elections this November.
“If something happens with this election, something that would be a horror show, we’ll see you next time in Venezuela,” Trump said of the Latin American country, believing that it would be much safer than in a US governed by Harris.
Following the Venezuelan presidential election, Trump said it was “neither free nor fair” and blamed his Democratic rival, Vice President Harris.
In a message on the social network Truth, Trump insulted the vice president, whom he called “crazy Kamala Harris” and accused her of having closed with Maduro “one of the worst agreements of all time.”
“Crazy Kamala helped lead the release of Maduro’s top money launderer and his two convicted drug-dealing nephews in exchange for an obviously false promise of free and fair elections for the people of Venezuela,” he opined at the time.
