In an amusing display of desperation, Vice President Kamala Harris recently tried to paint former President Donald Trump as someone who is “hiding away” from public scrutiny. The absurdity of this accusation is laughable, especially given that Trump seems to be everywhere these days. While Harris may be busy trying to craft yet another lackluster performance, Trump has been busy making the rounds, confidently engaging in interviews and capturing attention at every turn.
Harris’s attempts to pummel Trump with falsehoods have been particularly misguided. In one notable instance, she spread a fictional narrative accusing Trump of freezing and being confused during an event. The truth, however, paints a different picture; Trump paused only to manage two medical emergencies at the scene. Even mainstream media outlet ABC stepped up to debunk Harris’s ridiculous claims, recognizing how well Trump managed the situation. Meanwhile, Trump continues to shine in interviews, bringing his signature humor and humanity to the forefront, such as during his recent appearance on the “Flagrant” podcast.

During a recent interview with Bloomberg’s John Micklethwait at the Economic Club of Chicago, Trump’s economic expertise was on full display. Contrary to Micklethwait’s hostile questioning, the crowd, made up primarily of business professionals, recognized Trump’s significant understanding of economic matters. He effortlessly dropped facts that resonated with the audience, showcasing how the Republican Party remains the true party of common sense in these confusing times.
Micklethwait attempted to make a case regarding the peaceful transfer of power. Still, Trump swiftly reminded him—and the audience—that not only did the transfer occur smoothly, but it stood in stark contrast to the chaos often witnessed in troubled nations like Venezuela. As the audience clapped and booed in response to Micklethwait’s blunders, Trump highlighted his previous calls for peaceful and patriotic protests, subtly reminding the crowd of the left’s history of violence during their protests in 2016 and the riots surrounding his inauguration in 2017.
As the debate heated up, Micklethwait made a misguided attempt to tackle Trump on the issue of inflation. Rather than falter, Trump expertly highlighted his administration’s successes compared to the current economic mismanagement under Biden, eliciting laughter and applause from the audience. Trump further schooled Micklethwait on tariffs, reminding him that building manufacturing here at home eliminates the need for those tariffs, sending the crowd into a frenzy of applause as he deftly handled their host’s attacks.
In a humorous moment that left the audience in stitches, Trump took it a step further by calling out Gavin Newsom—referring to him as “Newscum”—on his anti-voter ID measures and other failures. The crowd responded enthusiastically to Trump’s unabashed critique, culminating in a standing ovation that clearly illustrated the audience’s alignment with his views.
Ironically, while Harris attempts to paint Trump as a recluse, she was extended an invitation to join this lively discussion but chose to decline. The stark contrast between Trump’s boldness and Harris’s retreat speaks volumes about the current political landscape. It reveals not only Harris’s inability to hold her ground on such vital topics but also her reluctance to engage meaningfully with the public.
