Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton's views differ incredibly from various issues - what do they view about important topics?

Written By: Randall S. Rinehart

DONALD TRUMP:
Economy: Trump will renegotiate foreign trade deals to make them more favorable to the U.S. He proposes a 45% tariff on goods from China and wants to cut the tax rate for corporations.
Immigration: Trump promises to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and make Mexico foot the bill. He has also proposed a temporary ban on Muslims entering the U.S. from certain countries.
Environment: Trump calls climate change “not one of our big problems.” He would cancel the Paris climate deal and supports constructing a new oil pipeline to Canada.
ISIS: Trump has promised to defeat ISIS by bombing the oil fields that fund the group. He says he would send up to 30,000 more U.S. ground forces to fight them.
U.S. Role in the World: Trump has questioned the amount of U.S. spending on NATO. He says other countries must bear more of the cost of their own defense. Trump would tear up the nuclear deal with Iran.
Guns: Trump opposes a ban on assault rifles and thinks the right to carry a concealed weapon should apply in all 50 states.
HILLARY CLINTON:
Economy: Clinton favors raising the federal minimum wage to $12 an hour. She believes the wealthiest Americans should pay higher taxes and wants the government to fund infrastructure projects, such as roads, to provide jobs.
Immigration: Clinton supports a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. She has pledged to use her power as president to protect young people brought here illegally as children.
Environment: Clinton believes climate change is an “urgent threat.” She supports the recent deal made in Paris among 174 nations promising to reduce greenhouse gases.
ISIS: Clinton wants to step up the campaign of airstrikes against the terrorist group ISIS and increase support for Iraqi and local forces who are fighting them.
U.S. Role in the World: Clinton says the U.S. must continue to work with NATO and other U.S. allies to check aggression by China and Russia. She supports the deal with Iran to curb its nuclear program.
Guns: Clinton supports a ban on assault rifles, expanded background checks, and letting victims of gun violence sue gun makers.
