Donald Trump, aiming to pivot from a week overshadowed by Kamala Harris, presented his tax and health proposals to gain traction in the U.S. presidential race.

Addressing supporters at a Mexican restaurant in Las Vegas, the Republican candidate detailed his plan to eliminate taxes on tips for service employees and courted Hispanic voters in Nevada, a critical battleground state. Trump's tax proposal aligns with his economic agenda, which his advisers urge him to emphasize over personal attacks on his opponent, Kamala Harris.

Later in Arizona, Trump reiterated his tax pledge and announced plans to investigate presidential assassination attempts and chronic health issues, seemingly appealing to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s supporters. Trump's policy-driven events come as Harris boosts her campaign with substantial fundraising and a lead in several battleground states, all while he strives to reclaim media attention.
