Trump tried to con the Harris campaign into accepting this debate opportunity on this date without their consent. This would have preempted next week’s previously agreed-to debate on ABC.
Hannity made it all the way through the first installment of his "town hall" with Trump without leaving time for a single audience question. Imagine an alternative outcome to past events where the Harrisburg PA audience might ask some questions, even without pre-recording.
Donald Trump lobbed his usual insults and accusations at Kamala Harris and Tim Walz during a town hall aired on Fox News and then falsely claimed that migrants from around the world are pouring into the US.
The pre-taped interview aired Wednesday evening. The former president walked onto the stage in a Pennsylvania arena to cheers, applause and chants of “USA” from his supporters.
The town hall, hosted by
Sean Hannity, comes less than a week before Trump and Kamala Harris meet on the debate stage and as both presidential candidates’ campaigns have drilled down on the US’s six so-called battleground states: Nevada, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Arizona. Election forecaster Nate Silver predicted that Pennsylvania is likely to be the “tipping point” for the election.
It also aired hours after two students and two teachers were shot and killed at Apalachee high school in Georgia. When asked about the shooting, Trump said: “It’s a sick and angry world for a lot of reasons and we’re going to make it better. We’re going to heal our world. We’re going to get rid of all these wars that are starting all over the place because of incompetence … We’re going to make it better.”
