kamala harris has yet to do formal press conference since emerging as democratic nominee  vice president kamala harris has gone 98 days as the presumptive, and now, official democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. trump has held six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of august. harris has done a pair of brief, informal press gaggles this week with the media while on the campaign trail. harris also ended her streak of not appearing on fox news earlier this month, sitting for an interview in pennsylvania with chief political anchor bret baier. she also did a cnn town hall on wednesday night and interviews this week with nbc news and telemundo. harris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits, friendly appearances with "the view," stephen colbert and howard stern and other media appearances. but as for when she'll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day may never come, at least while she's still a candidate. conservative radio libre host jorge bonilla feels harris should do a press conference but said its almost "irrelevant" because she continues to get a pass. "she is highly unlikely to do a press conference because the media have enabled and encouraged her plexiglass basement strategy, wherein she preserves the illusion of being out there while remaining wholly inaccessible to the press and therefore unaccountable," bonilla told fox news digital. trump has skipped several potential interviews in recent weeks, but he showed up at the annual al smith dinner that has historically featured the presidential candidates doing lighthearted roasts. harris decided not to attend, sending a video message instead. >  ays-kamala-harris-has-yet-do-formal -press-conference-since-emerging-de mocratic-nominee.amp
