Vice President Kamala Harris criticized former President Donald Trump for skipping the interview he had scheduled with “60 Minutes.”
“His staff won’t let him do a ’60 Minutes’ interview,” Ms. Harris said in an interview Monday with journalist Roland Martin. “Every president for the last half-century has done one, anyone who’s running for president — everyone has done it except Donald Trump.”
She also railed against Mr. Trump for not wanting to do another presidential debate before the Nov 5. election.
“He will not debate me again. I put out my medical records. He won’t put out his medical records,” she said. “And you have to ask: Why is his staff doing that?
“It may be because they think he’s just not ready and unfit and unstable and should not have that level of transparency for the American people,” she said. “There’s a real choice in this election.”
Ms. Harris’ interview with “60 Minutes” has been scrutinized for editing by CBS that appeared to clean up her answers to questions. Her campaign said it didn’t have a role in the network’s production process.
The Trump campaign has called for the release of the unedited interview transcript.
Mr. Trump and Ms. Harris debated last month, but the former president has said he will not debate again because he feels he won the debate.
