Vice-president brushes off remarks by Donald Trump in which he said Harris ‘happened to turn Black’ a number of years ago
Kamala Harris has shrugged off Donald Trump’s questioning of her racial identity, saying that it was “the same old show” and that “America deserves better”, at a rally in Texas.
On Wednesday, in an appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ), Trump antagonised senior Black journalists and questioned Harris’s race, saying, “She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black.”
His interview, which was meant to last an hour, according to Axios, was cut short after 34 minutes.
i don’t understand. what does he think he gains if he were to actually convince people that she’s only “pretending to be black”? it sounds like the only reason he even went to that event was to get more votes from racists who were already going to vote for him…whatever. fucking moron
That’s the secret: he doesn’t.
He’s not going to win on ideas, policy or record against her but if the narrative becomes “she lied about her race” those issues aren’t in the narrative.
He’s an awful human being but he’s media savvy.
true. keep everyone on the defensive and make them waste time debunking bullshit
gotta disagree. he’s an awful human being and his cult followers are just dumb enough to lap up all his bullshit like hogs at the trough
Thats the thing - he knows how to shovel the BS.
He has the rubes thinking that a guy who literally shits on a gold toilet understands and gives a shit about them. They think he’s tough when he’s an epic whiner…he knows how to con people and the media just parrots his shit because ratings matter more than truth and he knows it.
I think this is just his narcissism, racism, and sexism all fighting it out for top billing.
