Conway argued that Trump should not allow the upcoming vice presidential \u2064debate between Gov. Tim Walz and Sen. J.D. Vance to\u2063 be the final word on presidential debates for\u2062 the season. She emphasized \u2063the competitive\u2062 nature of debates, suggesting that Trump, who she likened \u2062to\u200b a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cowboys-rb-tony-pollard-may-be-leaving-dallas-and-these-star-replacements-could-take-his-spot\/\" title=\"Possible Replacements for Tony Pollard&#039;s Departure from Dallas Cowboys\">multi-talented athlete<\/a>, still has much to \u2064offer in a debate setting. Despite Trump&#8217;s hesitation\u200d due to the timing, with just over a month until the election, he indicated a preference for more debates \u2063but acknowledged logistical challenges. Conway&#8217;s insistence was aimed at fueling Trump\u2019s\u200d competitive spirit, laying out the importance of\u200b making a\u200b strong final impression before the \u2064elections.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Kellyanne Conway hopes vice <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/gov-whitmer-media-caught-in-another-lie-anarchist-arrested-for-plot-to-kidnap-and-kill-whitmer-hates-president-trump-trump-is-a-tyrant-video\/\" title=\"Gov.

I feel like you can pitch, you can, you can bat,&rdquo; she said in a reference to the designated hitter for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who recently won the National League Player of the Month for September.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I told him, you&rsquo;re like Shohei Ohtani, you&rsquo;re pitching, you&rsquo;re batting. You&rsquo;ve done seven of them. She&rsquo;s [Harris] 1 for 1 &mdash; big deal,&rdquo; Conway explained later to Fox News host Jesse Watters. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trump responded that he thought the ABC moderators for the first presidential debate were biased against him, but he still seemed to leave the door open to future debates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think you can get a fair shake. But even if you didn&rsquo;t, I would love to have two or three more debates,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on her interview later in the day with Watters, Conway said she thought she heard an opening in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-taking-regeneron-drug-remdesivir-therapy-for-coronavirus-diagnosis-ex-wh-doctor-explains\/\" title=\"Trump taking Regeneron drug, Remdesivir therapy for coronavirus diagnosis: ex-WH doctor explains\">president&#038;rsquo<\/a>;s remarks.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;He had said no, but he didn&rsquo;t say totally no,&rdquo; Conway reflected.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trump previously debated Harris for the first time on Sept. 10, after which he argued against doing a second debate because he said moderators had treated him unfairly by fact-checking him multiple times throughout the debate while giving Harris a relatively free pass.<\/p>\n<p>Still, influential advisers, such as Conway, have urged him to give debates another go.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;People just want to hear.
