Former US President Trump targeted Kamala Harris in front of voters
Although the former president conceded that a large number of people had bad opinions of him, he advised them to direct their resentment onto Vice President Kamala Harris. During a Fox News event, Trump stressed the need of criticizing Harris in order to win over supporters.
“It’s not worth the risk! You’re stuck with no options! You must cast your vote for me! Trump said.
Even if you don’t like me! he went on. You are free to remain silent and declare, “I don’t think I’ll vote for her even though I can’t stand that guy.”
There were no audience questions throughout the one-hour show. Trump’s remarks were made in the context of a larger conversation over fracking, a divisive topic in Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state.

Trump attacked Harris’s record on immigration, the economy, and foreign policy, making clear his plan for the impending discussion. Even though pre-debate question sharing is prohibited by regulations, the former president expressed doubts about the debate’s fairness and criticized ABC News, the event’s sponsor, for possible bias.
Planning and critique for the debate
Trump’s main goal ahead of his Tuesday debate is to lower Harris’s approval rating. He repeated his criticisms about CNN’s coverage of the debates by accusing ABC News of potentially providing Harris’s staff with questions beforehand.
Trump emphasized that, in spite of his earlier opposition, he is now pushing for early and mail-in voting. The 2020 Pennsylvania election victory of President Joe Biden was greatly influenced by this kind of voting. According to recent USA Today/Suffolk surveys, Harris leads Trump 48%–43%, but the election is still close in many crucial battleground states.

Reactions to Democratic critique
Trump responded to Democratic criticism of his campaign by disputing the idea that he and running mate JD Vance are “weird.” Trump defended his and Vance’s credentials as “solid rocks” by saying of Democratic running mate Tim Walz, “There’s something weird with that guy.”
worries about security
The Trump team is negotiating increased security threats in the wake of recent violence and his attempted assassination in July. He said, “It’s a sick and angry world for a lot of reasons,” in reference to the current condition of affairs.
