Why this matters: These are positions the candidate has stated publicly — on their campaign website or in public statements — summarized in plain words with a link to where they said it. Issues they haven't spoken about publicly are left out.
Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.
Each issue has its own range of views. A position is marked on that range only when the candidate's own statement clearly matches one option; there is no overall left–right score.
Taxes and Budget
His campaign website says federal spending is too high, that cutting it should come first, and that the government should spend less and pay down the national debt.6,
- Increase overall federal spending
- Hold overall spending near current levels
- Cut overall federal spending
- Cut spending enough to balance the budget within 10 years
His campaign website says the tax system should be simpler, with few rates and no deductions, and suggests one way to get there: a flat tax plus a sales tax, with everyone refunded the tax on income below the poverty line, and no other taxes.7
- Replace the current income tax with a single flat rate or a national sales tax
- Cut rates further, including the top rate
- Keep current rates
- Raise rates on high incomes only (for example, above $400,000)
Social Security and Medicare
His campaign website says Social Security is going broke and needs changes to stay available, including raising the age of eligibility for healthy people who are still working.7
- Raise the full retirement age
- Keep it at 67
Health Care
His campaign website says he prefers market-based health care, such as high-deductible plans with health savings accounts, and says a government single-payer system would assure care for everyone but limit choice and require rationing. It also says he would let states experiment with their own ways of regulating health insurance and care, and let people who want Medicare pay the premium to use it.7
Crime, Policing and Prisons
His campaign website says drug prohibition should end, with drugs legalized or decriminalized at the federal level and enforcement decisions made locally.7
Abortion and Reproductive Health
His campaign website says he agrees with the pro-choice view that government should not force women to give birth in every situation and with the pro-life view that the fetus's rights must be weighed too. It says a balanced policy could make abortion illegal after a certain stage of pregnancy, with attention to the mother's health.7
His campaign website says a balanced abortion policy could include keeping government out of funding abortions.7
His campaign website says a balanced abortion policy could include letting different states adopt different regulations based on their residents' views.7
Family and Social Policy
His campaign website says government should not decide whom individuals marry or require religious organizations to marry particular couples, and that any two people who want to marry should be free to.7
- Keep same-sex marriage legal in every state
- Let each state decide whether to allow it
- Recognize only marriages between one man and one woman
Elections and Government Reform
Foreign Policy and Defense
His campaign website says the war between Russia and Ukraine could end by peaceful means, that continuing or widening it is bad for both Ukraine and the United States, and that the country should seek better options. It says American support for fighting on harms Ukrainian families and that giving Ukraine enough support to win could risk nuclear war.7
His campaign website says the United States should offer to withdraw from NATO as part of a peaceful resolution of the war in Ukraine, saying Europe does not need American protection.7
- Keep the full US commitment to defend all NATO allies, and keep US forces in Europe
- Stay in NATO, but tie US support to allies meeting their defense spending pledges
- Stay in NATO, but bring many US troops home and have European allies lead their own defense
- Leave NATO
His campaign website lists ending sanctions on Iran and Cuba among the policies that could foster peaceful relations, saying the sanctions hurt people there and have not changed their governments' policies for the better.7
His campaign website says the United States should stop supporting Israel's conduct toward Palestinian families, which it describes as mistreatment and killing, and says he believes the Israeli government's current policy is wrong both morally and strategically.7
Guns
His campaign website says the government should not confiscate guns from law-abiding citizens and that some regulations may be reasonable. It says gun owners have told him that background checks, safety courses and waiting periods could be helpful approaches, and that rules can differ by state.7
Education
His campaign website says rules about which teams transgender girls join in sports matter far less than the federal debt and should not distract from it.7
§4Money
Why this matters: Campaigns report where their money comes from and how much they have left. Outside groups that spend on their own, without coordinating with the campaign, report that too.
