1:04:25Now PlayingDonald Trump on Thursday held a news conference on Thursday, during which he attacked Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Tim Walz, and President Joe Biden while painting a dark portrait of the United States. Trump called Walz a "radical left man," and said "he has positions that it's not even possible to believe they exist." He also suggested "presidency was taken away" from Biden, and called into question Harris' legitimacy as the nominee. Harris was nominated by virtual roll call by the Democratic National Committee on Tuesday. During his press conference, he also offered to debate Harris, saying he’s willing to appear separately on Fox, NBC and ABC, all spread across September. Trump had agreed previously to a debate against President Biden on ABC in late September but then he pulled out of that commitment and called on Harris to join him in a FOX News debate.
During his news conference, Trump shared some inaccurate statements. Trump misrepresented the realities of Jan. 6, 2021, and insisted there "was a peaceful transfer of power" after the 2020 election. Biden was inaugurated on schedule but Washington was on lockdown that day, with the streets patrolled by military personnel and domestic police two weeks after Trump’s supporters had attacked the Capitol as Congress convened to certify Biden’s win. Trump also falsely claimed "nobody was killed on Jan. 6." Five people died in the riot and its aftermath.
