Harris hit the ground running when she began campaigning but has been slammed for neglecting to take questions from the press and instead focusing on speaking to her supporters at rallies.
President Biden ended his bid for re-election on July 21 and quickly endorsed Harris as his replacement.
She secured enough delegates to become the nominee and launched a full-fledged campaign using Biden’s team almost immediately.
Harris named Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate on August 6.
The two debuted together for the first time a day later in the swing state of Pennsylvania.
Since late July, Harris has appeared at six campaign rallies – in Georgia, Texas, Nevada, Wisconsin, and North Carolina.
Despite her ambitious campaign schedule, one event noticeably has disappeared from her calendar – a press conference.
As the days trail on, Harris has yet to hold a formal press conference or interview with a media outlet.
Harris has also been criticized for recycling the same content during public appearances.
She typically begins her rally speeches by saying it’s “good to be back” in the state and adds that the “path to the White House” begins there.
Harris told Wisconsin, Michigan, Texas, and Georgia crowds that winning the White House meant winning their states.
She also frequently cites her summer job at McDonald’s at her rallies.
I KNOW DONALD TRUMP’S TYPE’
When addressing her competitor, Donald Trump, Harris has reiterated that she “knows his type.”
Harris often reflects on her career as a state prosecutor when she “took on perpetrators of all kinds.”
“Predators who abused women, fraudsters who ripped off consumers, cheaters who broke the rules for their own gain, so hear me when I say – I know Donald Trump’s type,” Harris said in Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, and a campaign event in Delaware.
At the Reading Area Community College, Harris spoke to a moderator and said, “The point about progress is to have the ability to have a vision and a belief in some faith in what can be unburdened by what has been.”
Harris has repeated the same line at multiple rallies and campaign events.
She frequently asks the crowd at her rallies, “Are we ready to fight for it?!”
After posing the rhetorical question, Harris typically says, “When we fight! We win!”
She reiterated these lines at her rallies in Wisconsin and Michigan.
Fox News cut a clip of Harris’ speeches in the two battleground states where she repeated multiple of the same lines.

WHAT YOU GOT?’
While campaigning in Detroit, Harris briefly stopped to take questions from reporters near her plane.
“What you got?!” she asked as she rattled off brief answers from the press.
Harris discussed her debate with Trump and said she was open to debating with him more than once.
When asked why she thought Trump was hesitant to debate her, she responded, “I am beyond trying to speculate on what he thinks.”
Harris shut down rumors that Walz evaded serving in the Iraq War during his tenure in the military.
She also addressed her infrequent media appearances, telling reporters she’s talked to her team about scheduling an interview before the end of August.
There hasn’t been an update on when the interview will take place or who will be conducting it.
