Presumably jealous of Kamala Harris’s surging poll numbers and domination of the news cycle, Donald Trump called a “general news conference” at Mar-a-Lago today and spent approximately an hour answering questions and delivering an unhinged mix of his stump speech, punctuated with attacks on his Democratic opponent (and past ones), and revisiting his favorite grievance — the reporting of crowd sizes.
Amid all of that, he said he has agreed to three presidential debates— on Fox News on September 4, ABC News on September 10, and NBC News on September 25. The Harris campaign has only agreed to the ABC News showdown and refused the Fox date.
Trump also claimed that he was ahead in the polls, whereas in reality, the numbers mostly favor the Democrats. The latest poll from Marquette University shows Harris leading by between four and eight percentage points.
Meanwhile, Harris and her running mate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz are actually out on the campaign trail having held large rallies in Philadelphia, Eau Claire, and Detroit this week. They next head to Phoenix and Las Vegas — managing to make stops in five of the key battleground states that will likely decide the election.
