Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 57 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. Under pressure to sit down for a substantive interview after weeks of stonewalling, Harris finally ended her interview drought last month in Georgia when she was joined by running mate Tim Walz for a pre-taped piece with CNN’s Dana Bash that was a far cry from a traditional press conference.
Meanwhile, former President Trump has been more accessible, holding news conferences and lengthy interviews. Harris dodged questions about her economic policy in a recent interview in Philadelphia, citing her middle-class upbringing instead.
Conservative Radio Libre host Jorge Bonilla feels Harris should do a press conference but said it’s almost “irrelevant” because she continues to get a pass. Harris may never hold a formal press conference while still a candidate, following her ‘plexiglass basement’ strategy.
