Here’s Where You Can Watch the Presidential Candidates on TV This Week

Opportunities to reach undecided voters are becoming fewer and fewer for the presidential candidates and their running mates. With early voting already underway in some of the battleground states, TVNewser has the following round-up of where you can watch interviews with Democratic candidates Kamala Harris and Tim Walz and their Republican rivals Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. (All times ET.)

Friday, October 18

Trump made an unannounced appearance on Fox & Friends this morning, joining the central quartet on the couch. The former president created a mini stir during his time in the studio, saying the jokes he made during Thursday night’s Al Smith charity dinner were written by “a couple of people from Fox.”

Doocy: Your material at the Al Smith dinner “was real funny, who helped you with it?” Trump: “I had a lot of people helping, a lot of people, a couple people from Fox – actually, I shouldn’t say that, but they wrote some jokes. For the most part, I didn’t like any of them.” pic.twitter.com/hQSFzPNDkd

According to Semafor’s Max Tani and Shelby Talcott, it was Nick Di Paolo—a right-leaning radio host and comedian who has contributed jokes and made appearances on FNC’s late night show Gutfeld!—was the responsible party for helping Trump with the jokes.

In a statement to the publication, the network said: “Fox News confirmed that no employee or freelancers wrote the jokes.”

Meanwhile, Harris spoke with NBC News’ Peter Alexander earlier today after a campaign stop in Grand Rapids, MI. Portions of the interview streamed on the afternoon edition of Meet the Press Now on NBC News Now, with more to come on tonight’s Nightly News with Lester Holt newscast at 6:30 p.m.
