"It has been 24 days and Kamala Harris continues to duck and hide from the media -- no interviews and no press conferences since she announced," said communications director Steven Cheung in a statement.

He added that he "look[s] forward to the debates" as a way to "set the record straight."

"Trump did the only thing he knows how to do -- he went out and lied, made up stories, mixed up dates, attacked the media, and, overall, reminded Americans that he is a deeply unwell man," the Harris campaign said in a statement reacting to Trump's press conference.

"We will commit to directly engage with the voters that are actually gonna decide this election and that is gonna be complete with rallies, with sit-down interviews, with press conferences, with all the digital assets we have at our disposal," Michael Tyler, communications director for the Harris-Walz campaign, said on CNN Wednesday when pressed multiple times to commit to press conferences and media interviews.

Trump just visited the solidly conservative state of Montana to stump for GOP Senate candidate Tim Sheehy last week, but is spending this week in two battleground states: North Carolina to deliver an economic speech and is also planning on holding a rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend.

Communications director says 'gonna' twice in one sentence? That's disappointing.

Is it really though? Seems realer to me.
