Stephen J. Farnsworth, a political science professor at the University of Mary Washington, said it is wise of Gilmore, who polls lowest among the GOP’s 17 presidential candidates, to try to secure a one-on-one debate with Trump.
“The only way any presidential candidate gets any media attention these days is to talk about Trump or be Trump. And who knows, Trump might even say yes since it offers another platform for Trump to be heard,” Farnsworth said.
