Donald Trump called a surprise media event at his Florida resort on Thursday as he faces growing frustration with his presidential campaign and a surge in support for his opponent, Kamala Harris.
Trump announced the press conference in a brief post on Truth Social, amid rising concerns over his campaign’s performance. Harris, alongside her new running mate Tim Walz, has been drawing enthusiastic crowds and gaining momentum since President Joe Biden exited the race last month. Her campaign has seen a significant boost in donations and has overtaken Trump in recent polls.
Reports indicate that Trump is upset with his campaign’s struggle against Harris and the negative media attention it has attracted. Additionally, he is dissatisfied with his running mate, J.D. Vance, who has struggled with public speaking and making a positive impression on voters.
