As a result of the approaching discussion between Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, it is possible that the ex-POTUS is trembling in his boots, a new report claimed.
During the episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher" that aired on HBO on Friday, August 23, CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins provided her perspective on what the Republican candidate would be thinking about prior to his or her confrontation with the Democratic nominee during the major event that will take place on September 10.
"I think Trump is nervous about it. I talk to a lot of sources in his world. I think he has really struggled with it. It’s not just a narrative or a talking point from Democrats," Kaitlan told the other panelists, including Democratic strategist James Carville and Republican Congressman Dan Crenshaw.
"He really has struggled with how to combat her. And I think going into that debate, he does not really want to do it. I think it’s difficult, if not impossible, for him to pull out because his campaign manager had cards printed that said 'anywhere, time, any place' for President [Joe] Biden. And it would look weak. But I don’t think he’s looking forward to it at this point,” the journalist continued.
During the Democratic National Convention, which took place the previous week, Kamala Harris delivered an impassioned address in which she accepted the candidacy of the party. During the speech, the former prosecutor criticized President Trump for the actions that he might take if he were to reinstate himself to his position.
"In many ways, Donald Trump is an unserious man. But the consequences of putting Donald Trump back in the White House are extremely serious. Consider not only the chaos and calamity of when he was in office, but also the gravity of what has happened since he lost the last election,” the Democrat nominee told her supporters.
"Just imagine Donald Trump with no guardrails, and how he would use the immense powers of the presidency of the United States. Not to improve your life, not to strengthen our national security, but to serve the only client he has ever had: himself,” Kamala went on.
After her moment of glory, the businessman called Fox News to provide his response to the speech that had just taken place. "She's not having success. I'm doing great with the Hispanic voters. I'm doing great with Black men. I'm doing great with women because women want safety," Donald ranted during his appearance on the cable news network.
His nasty statements, on the other hand, were met with resistance from users on social media. "I am loving this because he just comes off as incredibly desperate. I remember the times when they would skip a commercial break to allow him to speak. Those days are gone. Shut up. Byeeee Donald," one X, formerly known as Twitter, user penned about Donald, as per OK! Magazine. "Someone needs to take the keys away from the old man before he hurts himself," another netizen chimed in.
