Less than 12 hours after meeting for the first time ever, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump crossed paths at a 9/11 memorial ceremony at the World Trade Center in New York.
Fresh off Tuesday night’s confrontational televised debate, the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees were pictured shaking hands at the observance.
The pair had never met face-to-face before the debate, chiefly because Trump avoided President Joe Biden’s inauguration in 2021.
Harris attended the New York ceremony Wednesday with Biden, and the pair is expected to head to events in Pennsylvania and at the Pentagon, marking all three sites where planes crashed in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Trump was accompanied by his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (Ohio), in New York. They are expected to attend a ceremony at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania.
Harris and Trump faced off Tuesday night for their first — and possibly only — presidential debate before the November election.
The debate was notable for Harris baiting her rival on his rally crowd sizes and his 2020 election loss, and Trump spiraling into bizarre, racist lies about Haitian immigrants eating Americans’ cats and dogs.
The GOP candidate has signaled he may not take part in a second debate, as Harris has called for another showdown.
