Both candidates presented misleading economic claims; Harris mischaracterized unemployment figures, and Trump falsely stated record inflation under Biden while denying a sales tax that experts link to consumer costs.
Trump propagated false narratives about migrant crime and baseless claims of migrants eating pets, while Harris criticized his political obstruction of a bipartisan border bill.
Trump made false accusations about 'execution after birth' and denied intentions for a national abortion ban, despite his judicial appointments leading to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
