Well, in your vote, 2024, former President Donald Trump and
Vice President Kamala Harris are now set for a debate.
They're set to take the stage together September 10th.
But until then, the two will compete for attention on
the campaign trail.
Our Washington correspondent Julia Benbrook joins us live as both
candidates.
Julia, hope to continue drawing crowds.
Good evening to you.
Good evening. And Trump says that he prefers Harris as
his opponent and that his strategy remains unchanged.
But there are some things that are changing,
and that includes the big crowds that are coming out
to see Harris speak in these battleground states.
Since she became the Democratic presidential nominee,
Vice President Kamala Harris has held several high energy rallies.
Proving that Donald Trump is not the only candidate who
can draw a crowd,
her campaign estimates her biggest rally so far had about
15,000 attendees,
a detail that seems to be getting under the former
president's skin.
Are you worried at all about the size of Harris's
crowds?
Oh, give me a break.
Trump has long been known for drawing large crowds himself.
But also for hyper fixating on how many people attend
his events and exaggerating those numbers.
In history for any country,
nobody's had crowds like I have.
With Harris experiencing momentum, Trump tried to take back the
narrative with an hour long,
sometimes meandering news conference. On Thursday,
he proved he's ready to go on the attack,
criticizing her intelligence and pushing her to take more questions
from reporters.
She hasn't done an interview,
she can't do an interview.
She's barely competent. And she can't do an interview.
Harris, who has not done a sit down interview since
President Joe Biden withdrew from the race,
says she's working to get one on the calendar.
I want us to get an interview scheduled before the
end of the month.
And after lots of back and forth.
The presidential debate hosted by ABC is now on the
schedule.
The two candidates agreed to meet September 10th.
And while Harris has been on this battleground state tour,
Trump has been mostly absent from the campaign trail this
week.
And when he was pushed about that that decision,
he said that he doesn't need to be out there
right now because he's,
quote, leading by a lot.
But a recent CNN poll of polls and average of
recent polling shows that there's no clear leader reporting live
in Washington,

Busy night. Thank you so much for joining us from
the White House.
