In a surprising moment during his Univision town hall, former President Donald Trump was asked to name three positive things about Vice President Kamala Harris, and unlike Harris, who struggled with the same question last week, Trump didn’t miss a beat.
At a Glance:
- Trump complimented Harris by calling her a “survivor” and acknowledging her lasting friendships.
- The former president’s comments came after Harris fumbled when asked to say three nice things about him.
- Trump quipped that answering this question was the toughest part of his town hall.
In a lighthearted exchange during Univision’s town hall event, Trump was asked to name “three virtues” of his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris. Trump, who has been highly critical of the vice president’s performance, took a moment to respond but managed to offer some unexpected compliments.

Trump highlighted Harris’s resilience, saying, “She seems to have an ability to survive.” He pointed out her unlikely rise in the 2020 race, noting that she was one of the first candidates to drop out but somehow found herself as vice president. He also commented on her lasting friendships and said she has “a nice way about her” in some situations, though he made it clear he does not believe she’s been good for the country.
Trump’s response stands in stark contrast to Harris’s awkward moment when she was asked the same question. Struggling to name three positive traits about Trump, Harris ultimately cited Trump’s love for his family, but admitted she didn’t know him well.
While both candidates took different approaches to the same question, the moment offered a rare glimpse of lightheartedness amid the usual political sparring.
Of course Harris couldn’t bring herself to be human for even just a minute.
