Donald Trump has canceled another interview.
The Republican presidential nominee was schedule to sit down for an interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box to discuss his economic plans but host Joe Kernen announced Tuesday that he backed out of the interview.
Kernen made the announcement during an interview with Charles Phillips, the Oracle chairman who is supporting Harris, while trying to get him to encourage the vice president to come on the show.
“You should talk her [Harris] into coming on,” Kernen said.
After Phillips jokingly asked if Kernen would be “nice to her,” the host took a shot at Trump for bailing on the interview.
“Well, Trump canceled and he was going to come on. So, and I said, when you come on, we’ll be able to say you came — and I didn’t talk to him personally — but I said we’ve offered the vice president and she’s not coming on, but now he’s canceled,” Kernen said. “So now she could come on and we could say we offered it to the Trump camp, but they’re not.”
This comes as Harris is ramping up media appearances in the final weeks of the campaign and will even sit for an interview with pro-Trump Fox News on Wednesday.
Trump, meanwhile, is refusing to do interviews that would include real time fact-checking.
