Former President Donald Trump is forging ahead with another press conference as his 2024 rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, continues to duck substantive engagements with reporters.
According to his campaign, Trump will hold a press conference at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, at 4:30 p.m. ET on Thursday. Trump’s last press conference was last week, when he spent more than an hour talking with journalists at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, and he spoke with Tesla CEO Elon Musk on X Spaces for roughly two hours on Monday.
Trump’s willingness to take on questions, whether they be from reporters or tech billionaires, makes for a stark contrast with Harris, who has for the most part avoided taking questions during the more than three weeks of her presidential campaign that began after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race following a fumbling debate performance.
