According to a campaign official, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump will remain in the spotlight even if Vice President Harris chooses not to participate in two proposed debates.

The official stated, “If Harris does not participate, we’ll conduct town halls.” Harris, as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, has officially committed to a debate on September 10 on ABC.

The New York Post reported that “the former president said during this week’s news conference at Mar-a-Lago that he agreed to a Sept. 4 debate on Fox News and a Sept. 25 debate on NBC.” And while Harris left the door open to do the NBC debate, she doesn’t appear likely to participate in the Fox event.

“Well, I’m glad that he’s finally agreed to a debate on Sept. 10,” she said Thursday. “I am happy to have that conversation about an additional debate, or after Sept. 10, for sure.”

That said, Harris is obviously being shielded by her campaign advisers, likely due to her history of verbal gaffes and cackling when she doesn’t know how to respond. She has yet to hold a formal press conference more than three weeks after she became the de facto Democratic nominee when President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and essentially anointed her his successor.

Said GOP strategist Matt Wolking in a statement to The Post: “Right now, they feel like it’s safer to keep her in a bubble and let the establishment media do her work for her.”

Trump’s campaign is well aware that Harris hasn’t bothered to hold a serious press conference, so officials have come up with a plan to force her into the open, so to speak. The campaign plans to put pressure on Harris begins with deploying Senator J.D. Vance to trail her on the campaign circuit, according to sources close to the Daily Caller.

While Trump has been active with media appearances and interviews recently, Vance’s role will be to contrast his policies with Harris’s and spotlight her tendency to avoid the media.
