Vocal anti-Trump Republican Joe Walsh is advising Vice President Kamala Harris to increase her engagement with the press to secure a victory against former President Trump in the upcoming election. Walsh, a former Illinois congressman, emphasized that the current U.S. presidential race is tightly contested, with Trump likely to target Harris for perceived inconsistencies on various issues.
While acknowledging Harris's recent interview, Walsh stressed the importance of her participating in more press interactions. He cautioned against a defensive strategy, urging Harris to proactively address media inquiries to bolster her campaign.

Recent polls indicate that while Trump's support remains steady, Harris has made gains in key battleground states, particularly among women, Black voters, and young voters.
Harris's lead over Trump has been reinforced by positive polling results published by various news agencies in recent days. Her first formal interview since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee shed light on President Biden's decision to withdraw from the race and addressed criticisms of her evolving policy positions.
Despite her lead in the polls, Harris has maintained a limited media presence, rarely engaging in extended press interactions or holding press conferences. The interview in Georgia, where she was accompanied by her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, marked a notable departure from her previous media approach.
