Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 49 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 when she was joined by running mate Tim Walz for a pre-taped piece with CNN’s Dana Bash last Thursday in Georgia that was a far cry from a traditional press conference.
“She should absolutely hold regular press conferences. Americans have the right and need to know what her policy stances are,” conservative influencer Tim Young told Fox News Digital.
“Anyone who wants to lead the free world should be able to handle questions from the press,” Young continued. “If Kamala can’t handle real questions from the press, she absolutely can’t handle negotiations with foreign leaders.”
