Trump Holds Transparent News Conference While Kamala Harris Dodges Questions!

Trump’s News Conference at Mar-a-Lago

Well, folks, Thursday afternoon is about to get interesting! Former President Trump is set to host a general news conference at Mar-a-Lago. The Trump campaign says this move presents a “stark contrast” with Vice President Kamala Harris, who has been playing hide-and-seek with the media since being picked as the Democratic presidential nominee.

“I will be doing a General News Conference at 2:00 P.M. at Mar-a-Lago, Palm Beach. Thank you!” Trump announced on his Truth Social Thursday morning.

According to a Trump campaign source, the former president and Republican nominee is having some private chats with big-shot journalists before the conference.

Kamala Harris: A Notable Absence from the Media Spotlight

Meanwhile, let’s talk about Kamala Harris. It’s been 18 days since she became the Democrat Nominee, and she has yet to have a real press conference. That’s right, not a single formal sit-down with the media!

The pause button was hit on President Biden’s re-election bid on July 21, leaving Harris as the last one standing for the Democrats. But she’s been hard to pin down. She’s been on the campaign trail, giving small talks here and there, but nothing substantial for the media. Even the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago missed her presence, unlike Trump, who had his fiery question-and-answer session there just last week.

Harris-Walz Partnership: Still No Press Conference

This week, she got more headlines by teaming up with Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate. But guess what? Still no formal questioning from the press. This has GOP vice-presidential candidate JD Vance shaking his head. He’s calling on the media to get Harris in front of a mic.

“Until she does, you guys have got to stop giving her a honeymoon and pretending that she is something she isn’t,” he said at a press conference in Detroit on Wednesday.

Vance’s Tarmac Encounter: A Bold Move

Vance even tried to catch her on a Wisconsin tarmac, where both their planes were parked. He was there to catch a glimpse of Air Force Two—calling it his “future plane.” Talk about confidence!

“Hey, guys. How are you?” Vance casually greeted reporters. “I just wanted to check out my future plane, but I also wanted to go say hello to the vice president and ask her why Kamala Harris refuses to answer questions from the media?”

Vance added that he felt a bit sorry for Harris’ press pack, suggesting they must be pretty lonely with her avoiding questions all the time. “I, at least, have enough respect for you all, and for the American people you report to, to come and talk to you and to answer some questions. So I thought her reporters might actually benefit from that as well.” Classic Vance.
