FWIW, Trump knew Harris wasn’t going to attend the conference and had been denied the request to participate over Zoom. He posted about it and seemed to think the optics would be good for him and bad for her.
She’s been the presumptive nominee for I think less than 2 weeks. She’ll do interviews eventually.
Biden was the one who brought her race and gender before selecting her to be a VP. He hurt her badly with that stupid announcement.

That’s it.
She’s Indian-American isn’t she? She looks more Indian than Black to me, too. Look at her hair.
If her trolls are going to keep screaming anti-White screeds while she makes her entire candidacy about her descriptors, she might want to develop a thicker skin. Unless she’s ashamed of her Indian heritage that is.
Just WOW. Speechless.
She was raised by her Brahmin mother, raised Hindu, speaks Hindi — and her father also has Indian ancestry. She wasn’t even raised in the United States from the time she was 12. She can identify however she wants, but she is not a product of the African-American experience, and certainly not ADOS.
She is not even part of the American immigrant experience, in that neither of her Ph.D. parents became U.S. citizens.

As a Brahmin, the dirty little secret is that she is against anti-caste legislation in the United States. Someone should ask her about that, if she ever does give an unscripted interview.

lol there was NOTHING pro about that. he actually could have prepped and had a great answer explaining why Black people should vote for him, pointing to hard economic facts and things like immigration policy. But he bloviated and lashed out because that’s literally all he can do when facing an adversary.
Trump doesn't prep because he's lazy.
He's not lazy he's a narcissist. He believe he knows everything and doesn't need to prep. There's a VERY big difference between the two.
He does not need a week in a bunker like Joe to prepare. And this is what his voters like about him. He comes very open about who he is. He is not hiding it or pretending to be someone else. Meanwhile, Harris had not have any single press conference in 11 days since she became a presumptive nominee. Because she is being prepped. Which is totally fine and appeal to a different group as well.
You’re implying that he answered questions and was effective. He was not. He demonstrated his declining cognitive state, his emotional instability, and his racism. He put on a remarkably poor performance.
I would like to see an analysis of changes in his speech patterns since he was elected in 2016. At that time experts observed extreme differences between how he spoke in the 80s and 90s and then. He used to speak in complex sentences, he used to use multi-syllabic words. By 2016, not any more. This included unscripted speech. A lot of people saying he "tells it like it is" is just people responding to him speaking at the equivalent of a 4th grade reading level. And some of that might be touching on primitive emotional responses?--unspoken biases against groups of people or just their sense of grievance?
https://www.statnews.com/2017/05/23/donald-trump-speaking-style-interviews/:
In interviews Trump gave in the 1980s and 1990s (with Tom Brokaw, David Letterman, Oprah Winfrey, Charlie Rose, and others), he spoke articulately, used sophisticated vocabulary, inserted dependent clauses into his sentences without losing his train of thought, and strung together sentences into a polished paragraph, which — and this is no mean feat — would have scanned just fine in print. This was so even when reporters asked tough questions about, for instance, his divorce, his brush with bankruptcy, and why he doesn’t build housing for working-class Americans.
Example (1992 with charlie Rose)
“Ross Perot, he made some monumental mistakes. Had he not dropped out of the election, had he not made the gaffes about the watch dogs and the guard dogs, if he didn’t have three or four bad days — and they were real bad days — he could have conceivably won this crazy election.”
Now, Trump’s vocabulary is simpler. He repeats himself over and over, and lurches from one subject to an unrelated one, as in this answer during an interview with the Associated Press last month:
“People want the border wall. My base definitely wants the border wall, my base really wants it — you’ve been to many of the rallies. OK, the thing they want more than anything is the wall. My base, which is a big base; I think my base is 45 percent. You know, it’s funny. The Democrats, they have a big advantage in the Electoral College. Big, big, big advantage. … The Electoral College is very difficult for a Republican to win, and I will tell you, the people want to see it. They want to see the wall.”
Interesting example. He's simply not capable of this type of sentence anymore. “Ross Perot, he made some monumental mistakes. Had he not dropped out of the election, had he not made the gaffes about the watch dogs and the guard dogs, if he didn’t have three or four bad days — and they were real bad days — he could have conceivably won this crazy election.” Obvious cognitive regression.

lol.. thanks for the laugh this morning.
Do you see Harris going on conservative network and open herself to questions? We all know it is not happening.
This was not a “liberal network.”
That distinction is immaterial. It was a hostile group of people from the outset and he knew it would be so. Harris would never do the same. She can’t even hold a press conference.

The fact that Republicans see a room full of journalists as hostile territory is pretty telling.

NP but here’s the thing. I honestly don’t think Trump knew it would be a hostile group. Everyone else did- but he is such a textbook narcissist with a strong God complex that he really thinks all ‘blacks’ love him. And love what he did as president. He isn’t faking that part.
