Political Positions
LiberalConservative
Economy & Taxes
Supports reducing the size of government, rein in spending, and cutting regulatory burdens to help families and farms; favors stopping what he calls wasteful foreign spending and returning power to states. Positions emphasize fiscal restraint and pro-growth, limited-government economic approaches rather than tax increases or expanded redistribution.
Healthcare
Supports lowering health care costs through increased price transparency and patient-centered reforms while reducing federal involvement and returning authority to states. Emphasizes prioritizing patients over bureaucrats and insurers rather than expanding federal entitlement programs.

Immigration & Border
Supports stronger border security and tighter immigration controls, arguing mass immigration (including H‑1B programs) harms American workers and undercuts wages. Campaign materials say he will “keep our border secure” and prioritize stopping migrant crime while reforming immigration to serve American citizens’ interests.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports a right-to-life position from conception and opposes abortion access; strongly opposes expansion of mail-in abortion pills and rejects assisted suicide.
Climate & Energy
Supports expanding domestic energy production and describes advancing “American energy dominance” while also endorsing stewardship of public lands and waters. Emphasizes energy growth and reduced regulation as part of an economic and ‘America First’ agenda. Statements focus on promoting fossil fuel production and domestic energy rather than aggressive emissions targets or Green New Deal–style policies.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate explicitly frames the Second Amendment as non-negotiable, states he will protect it from weakening, and endorses constitutional carry and the right to self-defense. His campaign materials emphasize defending the Second Amendment and opposing measures that would limit gun rights.
