Harris also addressed Republicans who questioned Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s military record after she named him her running mate Tuesday.”Listen, I praise anyone who has presented themselves to serve our country,” she said. “And I think that we all should.”The controversy came after Republicans accused Walz of engaging in “stolen valor garbage” with respect to his military credentials. Harris’ stop at the tarmac came after Trump attacked the vice president for not taking on-the-record questions from reporters on the campaign trail since becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee. “Kamala refuses to do interviews because her team realizes she is unable to answer questions, much like Biden was not able to answer questions, but for different reasons,” Trump posted on Truth Social.She also failed to appear at the National Association of Black Journalists’ convention in Chicago, where former President Trump made headlines last week for a question-and-answer session. Harris has gone 18 days without holding a formal press conference since emerging as the presumptive nominee last month. President Biden endorsed her July 21 when he suspended his re-election campaign.Since then, Harris has been traveling across the U.S. on the campaign trail and giving informal remarks.The Harris campaign did not immediately return Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
