Harris Prepares for First Interview Since Presidential Campaign Launch. Vice President Kamala Harris will give her first interview since launching her presidential campaign, joining CNN's Dana Bash on Thursday at 9 p.m. Eastern time, AP reports. The interview will feature Harris alongside her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, in Savannah, Georgia, as part of their campaign efforts. Republicans have criticized Harris for her lack of media access since becoming the Democratic nominee, labeling her as unprepared for challenging interviews. Harris has done several interviews during her vice presidency, often engaging more frequently with the media than President Joe Biden. The Trump campaign quickly responded to the CNN interview announcement, mocking Harris for needing a joint interview with Walz and questioning her competence. Earlier in August, Harris expressed her intention to do her first formal interview before the end of the month. Harris regularly speaks with the media during her travels on Air Force Two, though these conversations are typically off the record. The CNN interview will be part of Harris's campaign bus tour, which begins on Wednesday and includes a voter rally in Savannah on Thursday.
