Former president Donald Trump and the Republican Party solidified their policy positions at the Republican National Convention in July. That includes a plan to “build the greatest economy in history.”
Trump’s economic policies are centered around a few ideas: drilling for energy sources in all forms, larger tariffs on foreign imports and imposing tax cuts.
PBS News correspondent Lisa Desjardins explains how those policy points could be implemented if Trump were elected president again.
