Since President Biden dropped out of the re-election nearly three weeks ago, Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, has kept a low profile. But some experts believe that might give her the same advantage it gave Biden in 2020.
According to Cody Sargent, a Heritage Action for America spokesman, Harris is “running a similar play to Biden in 2020 where, of course, he used COVID as an excuse to stay in his basement the entire election.”
Sargent later added, “Harris is running a Trojan horse campaign,” Sargent continued. “She’s distracting people with Megan Thee Stallion and rolling out a vice president commercials that don’t really say anything, distracting them with this big shiny object and Trojan horse. But, then inside that horse is socialism, the most radical candidate to ever appear at the top of her presidential ticket, and she’s avoiding doing any media, any real interviews, any sit down.”
“So right now it’s working for her,” Sargent said. “Because we, unfortunately, have a compliant press in this country that’s openly pulling for her.”
With the exception of Trump, Harris spoke with reporters for less than two minutes on Thursday following an 18-day absence in which she did not speak to the press.
Truth Social ‘s former President Trump himself criticized her lack of appearances by writing, “Kamala refuses to do interviews because her team realizes she is unable to answer questions, much like Biden was not able to answer questions, but for different reasons.”
Trump said in his recent news conference after her return. Harris, in turn, answered questions briefly on the airport tarmac in Michigan, where he had a noticeably lengthy news conference. “I’ve talked to my team. I want us to get an interview scheduled before the end of the month,” Harris answered.
Now, according to a recent report, Harris is leading Trump in the betting markets for the first time since May 1 when President Biden was still running.
According to the average, Harris has a 50.6% chance of winning in the presidential election, while Trump has a 48.2% chance. Both Vice President Harris and Trump agreed to participate in a debate which will be hosted by ABC News next month.
