Live updates: Trump, Harris campaign in battleground Michigan as election nears | CNN Politics

Former President Donald Trump sat for a wide-ranging on-set interview on “Fox and Friends” on Friday morning, just days after his rival Vice President Kamala Harris sat down for her first interview as the Democratic presidential nominee with the conservative network.

Asked about whether he expects to get more women, like his wife Melania and daughter Ivanka, as well as former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, on the campaign trail to help him appeal to women voters, Trump answered, “I think I do very well with women. And I think it’s all nonsense. I see the polls, and we do well.”

A pre-taped town hall that Trump did with a female audience in Georgia aired on Fox on Thursday. Fox News did not disclose that the female audience it selected for the event was packed with local Republican supporters and the network edited its broadcast to remove some of their vocal advocacy of Trump.

“Without abortion, the women love me now. They like me anyway, because what I’ve done is so good, I’ve taken this issue out of the federal government and put it back to the states where they’re voting,” he continued, again touting his appointment of Supreme Court justices who overturned federal abortion protections.

Trump said “a lot of the people” who attended the Al Smith dinner in New York on Thursday night would be part of his potential future cabinet, saying “I put him in, right?” when asked by a Fox host about Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

Pressed again on roles in a potential administration, Trump said, “look, I think it’s a little bit early. I have great people at every position.”

Asked about former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who endorsed him this summer, Trump answered, “he’s going to be a part of it.”

The show also played a clip of a segment that will air on Monday of Trump’s visit to a barbershop in the Bronx on Thursday. He told the people there “you guys are the same as me,” adding, “we were born the same way. I grew up in Queens and all of that.” This comes as both Trump and Harris’ campaigns are trying to appeal to Black male voters.
