Former President Donald Trump’s campaign has devised a strategy to push Vice President Kamala Harris into the spotlight, given her reluctance to hold a substantive press conference since President Joe Biden ended his reelection bid and endorsed her as his successor.

According to sources close to the Daily Caller, the plan involves sending Senator J.D. Vance to follow Harris on the campaign trail. While Trump has been actively engaging with the media, Vance’s role will be to highlight policy differences and draw attention to Harris’s tendency to avoid media scrutiny.

“To highlight that, Senator Vance and President Trump are showing up where Kamala Harris is not,” a campaign spokesperson, granted anonymity to preview strategy, told the Caller. The spokesperson highlighted that Trump attended the National Association of Black Journalists conference while Harris did not. Trump has also made appearances with non-traditional media personalities, such as streamer Adin Ross and Elon Musk.

“Senator Vance is doing the same by going to the same places that Kamala Harris is going but refusing to take questions. Anyone can show up in a state and read off of a script, off a teleprompter, and then leave 20 minutes later, that’s exactly what Joe Biden was doing, and it didn’t work for him. We’re not going to let it work,” the spokesperson continued.

After Biden withdrew from the presidential race and endorsed Harris, she quickly launched her own campaign. This change appears to have revitalized the Democratic Party, which had been hindered by infighting and uncertainty. The transition energized the party, resulting in a surge in fundraising and a series of well-attended rallies.

“But in the 18 days the campaign has been on the road,” the Caller reported, “Harris has not done a sit-down interview, held a press conference, or allowed for many unscripted moments. In fact, Biden is slated to do a sit-down interview, appearing on CBS News on Sunday, before Harris does.”

The strategy of the Trump campaign was evident when Vance arrived in Eau Claire, Wisconsin on Wednesday. As he walked towards Air Force Two on the tarmac, Harris had already boarded, leaving reporters waiting.

“I wanted to take a good look at the plane because, hopefully, it’s going to be my plane in a few months, but I also thought you guys might get lonely because the Vice President doesn’t answer questions from reporters and hasn’t for 17 days,” Vance told the journalists.
