Who's 'sleepy' now? Tired Trump cancels yet another interview

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has dropped out of yet another interview, with his campaign saying he was too “exhausted” to participate, Politico reported.

Trump had been in talks for weeks to appear on a podcast run by The Shade Room, a Black-owned media outlet that focuses on pop culture, in a probable effort to try to peel Black voters away from his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. 

When the podcast producers tried to nail down a specific date for the interview, an unnamed campaign staffer told them that the 78-year-old Trump was “exhausted and refusing [some] interviews but that could change,” according to Politico.

While Trump was too tired to go on the show, Harris appeared on it last week and spoke about her “Opportunity Agenda For Black Men.” The agenda’s proposed policies include providing forgivable business loans to Black entrepreneurs, offering educational resources for Black men to get jobs in in-demand fields, and a new National Health Equity Initiative for Black men. 

The Shade Room cancellation follows a series of other events and interviews Trump has canceled in recent weeks.
