The Kamala Harris campaign has attributed the weak jobs report from July to former President Donald Trump, despite him leaving office over three years ago.
The Labor Department reported an addition of only 114,000 jobs, falling short of the anticipated 175,000.
Campaign spokesperson James Singer criticized Trump for his presidency’s impact on the economy and claimed that his proposed Project 2025 agenda would harm the middle class by increasing taxes and cutting health care and Social Security.

Singer emphasized that while progress has been made, Vice President Harris aims to prioritize building the middle class, targeting corporate price gouging, banning hidden fees, and capping excessive rent and drug costs.
“Donald Trump failed Americans as president, costing our economy millions of jobs, and bringing us to the brink of recession,” Harris campaign spokesperson James Singer said.
“Now, he’s promising even more damage with a Project 2025 agenda that will decimate the middle class and increase taxes on working families, while ripping away health care, raising prescription drug costs, and cutting Social Security and Medicare — all while making his billionaire donors richer.”
Singer added, “We’ve made significant progress, but Vice President Harris knows there’s more work to do to lower costs for families.”
Harris “will make building up the middle class the defining goal of her presidency, taking on greedy corporations that are price gouging consumers, banning hidden fees, and capping unfair rent increases and drug costs,” Singer said.
