Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 14 days without holding a formal press conference since becoming the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee as of Sunday.
Harris announced that she had locked up the nomination late on July 22, declaring that she had won commitments of backing from a majority of the nearly 4,000 delegates to next month's Democratic National Convention. She has since hit the campaign trail, spoken at various events, and even chatted with reporters here and there, but hasn’t done a formal press conference or wide-ranging interview in the 13 days that have followed.
She also failed to appear at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago, where former President Trump made headlines on Wednesday with a heated question-and-answer session. On Thursday, she briefly addressed reporters at Joint Base Andrews as she and President Biden greeted Americans freed from Russia in a massive prisoner swap, including Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich.
"This is just an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy and strengthening alliances," Harris said. "This is an incredible day."
Harris, who became the likely nominee without receiving a single primary vote when President Biden announced he would step aside last month, has been so elusive that The New York Times published excerpts from an interview she conducted last year to see where her answers "land now."
Much of the Democratic Party — including governors, senators and House members as well as party leaders — quickly coalesced behind Harris following Biden's blockbuster news. But critics have started to take notice that Harris hasn’t faced tough questions since.

Biden 2020 plan
Hide as much as possible with few off script remarks
Any ice cream appearances on the schedule?
Let’s Go, Brandon FKH.
She did not receive a single popular vote. She has not appeared for any Q&As, nor any unscripted appearances. This is how the Dems intend to conduct the campaign. If she wins we are finished as a nation. The nation we have now at least is finished.
Oh, yes! Let’s see a word salad press conference. I heard her going on about “diplomacy” a couple of days ago. That was entertaining. Scary, but entertaining.
The search is on for an intelligent body double who can connect 3 sentences into a complete thought
“Can you or anyone, name one thing she has accomplished as Vice President?”
She had a campaign rally in Las Vegas in 2020 in which no supporters showed up.
Nobody likes her or thinks she could govern this country.
She’s just a face for the Democrat Crime Families to put out in front of people.
Which Biden adopted from Hilary.
I remember that every time Hilary made an appearance or had a press conference her standing in the polls dropped.
I believe that this is the new standard for Democrat Presidenntial nominees
The more the public understand who the Democrats are the less they like them.
Fifteen minutes of Kamala giving semi-scripted answers to scripted in advance questions by lap dog media is a MINEFIELD that she cannot survive.
She can’t even read prepared remarks without screwing up.
She referred to herself as prez at the congresswoman from Mars’ funeral.
She can’t.
She’s more unlikable every time she opens her mouth.
Nobody’s buying it and those that are are pretending.
She never talks policy and she won’t until she is put in a position where she is forced to talk policy.
Like a debate.
They got rid of Joe because the RAT policy is so bad that they needed Joe to take the blame so they could bring in this nitwit and try to sell her as more moderate. The idea is to hide their America ruining policy behind Kamala being black and a woman.
“Press conferences are, you know, these really important opportunities where, um, we come together and share information, right? And engaging and connecting and, you know, inspiring, and sometimes we ask questions and sometimes we answer them, but at the end of the day, it’s really about communicating.”
Very true!
Let’s go Brenda!
She has a real problem with marijuana and alcohol. She falls apart when the events are not scripted and carefully choreographed. Bit surprised she agreed to debate Trump. Strongly suspect she will find an excuse to cancel.A real debate would be very bad for her and the Democrats down ballot.
It worked for them once it’ll work for them a second time. How do I know their strategy will work again because the fix was in and nobody was held accountable. But I’ll tell you who was persecuted for raising a stink …Trump’s team ended up either being bankrupt or in jail never ending court filings billions of dollars awarded to the dominion company given to them by Fox …Tucker was fired all because of righteous anger. THEY were the only side that was held accountable and persecuted. It will happen again because people have been demonized in believing that if they resist stink they too will end up exactly like the people from 2020. So you see that’s how I know it’ll work again. And I can tell you Arizona, Georgia Pennsylvania and are already in the cackling hyena’s bag. Trump needs a big miracle from God like a pastor said because he is fighting a powerful satanic machine and he’s gonna need God to help him across the finish line.
Yet Democrats keep getting elected. I just can't understand it.
/s
She’s running as a blank sheet in hopes that enough Americans will just vote for generic democrat . She won’t be running the country anyways she’s just getting installed by permanent deep staters
