I don't remember Trump supporters complaining so much when Trump refused to debate Haley, Christie, Vivek et. al. during the primaries. Was he hiding then? Was he afraid to be exposed when he had to face tough questions in a live setting? I don't know, his people seemed OK with it.
It's funny how they are accusing Harris of hiding, when she's out with voters every single day, at a pace that the geriatric Trump can only envy from his air conditioned sitting room in Palm Beach.
look, harris had no campaign a month ago. She had two weeks to pull together a campaign that didn't exist, and hire a veep. Trump had a year and a half to do that. Unheard of. 3 wks vs 70ish weeks. Patience, grasshopper. What she is doing is working like a charm. A historic climb in the polls. Historic. And she is winning.
Also, it's much easier for trump to do interviews because he just makes up stuff. He doesnt' have to study up on policy because he just makes up stuff and his people, you included, don't care if it's all lies.
Harris and the Dems don't work like that. What she says will be taken seriously and she wants to tell the truth, not lies. Unlike trump. So she is studying up on policy and making sure she is up to speed on everything.
You are saying she was cast into her new role just like yesterday. And even if yesterday, how hard is it to just sit with the interviewer and answer questions? Just give-and-take with the interviewer. She is like the greatest DA ever. An unscripted interview should be a walk in the park.
I am afraid you Dems will be tooling around town in early 2025 and your bright and shiny car breaks down on the side of the road. And you realized "just maybe I should have looked at it more closely before put everything into it." She sure looked purdy on the showroom floor but I think I maybe bought a clunker. What a fool I was.
I'll take my chances with a new car over one that I know is a piece of sh*t.

The interview thing is important to them because Trump is afraid to campaign. I don't blame him. The last time he campaigned, someone from his own party tried to kill him.

And now (literally right now on CNN) people from his own party are trying to "kill him" as a candidate, making the rounds on television to talk about the work of "Republicans for Harris." They are creating the permission structure for Republicans to vote for her.
While many won't go that far, they will leave the President line on the ballot blank, or will write in someone else. Either way, it is terrible news for don-OLD DUMP.
Republicans for Harris is hosting a Zoom call tonight to teach other Republicans how to woo GOP voters to Harris.
Trumpers do not care whatsoever about what Kamala Harris would say about anything in a Press conference. They would find fault with everything.
Instead, they need dirt and they need dirt fast because Trump is a hot mess locked down in Mar A Lardo because any appearance by him in public is an unmitigated disaster.
Harris is brilliant to keep the press in need. Her campaign knows that this "why won't she talk to us"? is a winner. This is entertainment media manipulation 101. Keep the crowd waiting and elevate your stature....
There are some very smart people advising the Harris campaign.
The media needs Harris far more than she needs the media. Trump has used this knowledge to his advantage for 9 years. He picks and chooses when to speak. And he picks and chooses who gets to ask him questions. The media is entirely derelict in their duties covering Trump and allowing him to manipulate them. It is brilliant for her to not allow Trump to set the narratives and then sit in front of Microphones responding to the 10 latest right wing smears. She is setting her own narratives. And the media is having fits.
I hope this is her strategy moving forward - keep hiding. I'm sure nobody will wonder why she doesn't give interviews or answer questions about policy. Voters love when politicians hide from them.
I hope the liberal sheep keep coping and coming up with rationalizations as to why their candidate is hiding from them. It only makes their party look more crazy.
Trump is a master campaigner and brilliant vote getter. Why just yesterday he congratulated Elon Musk for harshly firing his own employees that wanted better work conditions by trying to form a union.

As a venture capitalist, JD Vance repeatedly touted his guiding principles for investing in a company: A business should not only turn a profit, it should also help American communities.
Vance was an investor and board member of a start up in Eastern Kentucky which not only went bankrupt within a few years, but reportedly forced workers to work in unhealthy conditions and ended up hiring migrants from Central America. Vance's people say he wasn't involved in the day to day operations of the company; that may be true, but we'll see if this story gains traction and ends up being another black eye for Vance and the Trump campaign.
