One thing that has been a surety over the last two weeks has been the amount of fawning, glowing press coverage of the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, as she travels the country to tout her supposed creds and make the case for why she should be the next president.

For instance, there was the laughable piece from The Atlantic trying to spin her cackling and infamous word salads as part of her supposed "oddball charm."

"The point was not what she was saying, but how she was saying it: a hallmark, perhaps now more than ever, of what people want from politics," they bizarrely wrote about remarks Harris made during a star-studded Atlanta rally last Tuesday.

Something else that has been a sure thing is Harris' media avoidance strategy. We are now on day 17 of her avoiding questions from the press, and it's a schedule that doesn't look like it will change anytime soon:

In the 17 days since she launched her campaign, Harris has not faced any questions about her knowledge of Biden's mental decline, how she would handle the ongoing escalation in the Middle East, the growing concerns of a recession, her record as "border czar," the revelations surrounding Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff's extramarital affair during his first marriage, and the myriad far-left positions she embraced during her 2020 presidential bid, several of which her campaign has quietly tried addressing through reversal statements to the press.

Journalism professor Jeffrey McCall made the point that the strategy was deliberate, as "there is no need" to do interviews while so-called reporters are busy drooling:

"As long as she is getting so much favorable press coverage, there is no need for her to take the risks associated with doing unscripted press interactions," DePauw University journalism professor Jeffrey McCall told Fox News Digital. "Harris has shown repeatedly over her political career that she's just not very good at speaking in extemporaneous situations. She is known for her word salads and unserious style."

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), the GOP vice presidential nominee, has been turning up the heat on Harris over the issue of her not answering questions from the media, with a running thread on his Twitter page counting the days since she's taken a question or, more to the point, answered one:

And as we previously reported, Vance also scolded the media during a Tuesday press gaggle, urging them to "show a little bit of shame" over their failure to press her on the issues that matter most to voters.

"The American people deserve to get to know the people who want to lead them, and I think it’s shameful for Kamala Harris, but increasingly for the media, that she is taking a basement strategy of running from reporters instead of getting in front of them and answering tough questions about her record and letting the American people know who she is," Vance also said.

I'd like to think the Kamala Harris media honeymoon will be over soon enough, but we know it won't because they have a renewed sense of purpose after aiding panicked Democrats and their big-money donors in forcing President Joe Biden to withdraw from the race in July. 

But as history has shown us quite recently, these things have a way of sorting themselves out with Democrats doing themselves in, as Biden did with his disastrous debate performance and as Harris is likely to do in the coming weeks - because she just can't help herself.

As always, stay tuned.
