Donald Trump, the felon, is scrambling for something, anything, to slow the Kamala-mentum threatening to engulf him. His current shtick, amplified by his lightweight running mate and his MAGA media enablers, is to assail Harris for failing to chat at length with the press corps he hates. Three weeks into her sudden candidacy, she has yet to hold a news conference or sit for interviews.
Trump thinks he knows why. During his lovefest with Elon Musk, he said: “She’s not smart. She’s not a smart person, by the way.
” The dolt who thinks Harris’ crowds are fake and windmills cause cancer is obviously ill-qualified to judge anyone else’s intelligence. Indeed, right now, Harris is smart enough to know she doesn’t need to fence with the Fourth Estate. Seriously, why should she? She and Coach Walz are packing their rallies, raising piles of money, and stomping Trump’s eggshell ego.
and in the scant time since Joe Biden stepped down, she has been quite busy behind the scenes — little things like picking a running mate, uniting the party, talking with donors, stoking grassroots support, crafting a stump speech, planning the national convention and fleshing out a platform. Rest assured, Harris will meet the press on her own timetable. With the wind at her back, she has that luxury.
Does the average targeted voter give a hoot that Harris hasn’t conducted any interviews? Nope. The polls tell the story. She has surged to the lead in three key swing states — Pennsylvania.
