Harris Mirrors Biden’s 2020 Media Strategy Amid Criticism

United States: Vice President Kamala Harris, who is running for president, has not answered any questions from reporters for almost three weeks.

This is similar to what President Biden did in 2020, when he stayed away from the public because of COVID-19. Cody Sargent from Heritage Action for America says this strategy might help Harris just like it helped Biden.

Harris was basically blasted for spending less than two minutes taking questions from the reporters and on Thursday after bringing criticized for going 18 days without speaking to media.
