(The Center Square) – Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday told a group of Black journalists that he didn’t know Vice President Kamala Harris was Black.
“I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black,” Trump said during a question-and-answer session at the National Association of Black Journalists Annual Convention in Chicago. “Is she Indian or is she Black? Because she was Indian all the way and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she went she became a Black person.”
Trump was asked about comments made by other Republicans, including a Tennessee Republican who called Harris a diversity, equity and inclusion “hire.” An interviewer asked Trump if he agreed with Republicans who made such comments and if he thought Harris was only on the ticket because she was Black.
The panelists also asked Trump questions ranging from past comments he had made criticizing Black reporters, whether he would pardon those convicted in their involvement in the Jan. 6 riot, inflation’s effect on the Black community, police immunity, his campaign partner J.D. Vance’s controversial comments, abortion and Trump’s age. One panelist attempted to ask about “Project 2025,” a conservative think tank’s set of policy proposals that Trump’s campaign has disavowed, but ran out of time.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called Trump’s comments about Harris “repulsive.”
Harris, who is of Jamaican and Indian descent, attended Howard University, a historically Black college.
Trump also said he bailed out struggling historically Black colleges and universities during his time in the White House.
Trump signed a bipartisan bill in 2019 to permanently send more than $250 million a year to the nation’s historically black colleges and universities.
If Fauxcahontas can be an American Indian. then I suppose Cackles can be black. They become whatever suits them at that moment I guess.
Didn’t the Sex Offender call himself the ‘First Black President’ ?
Harris indeed was a diversity, equity and inclusion “hire.”, but once put into positions of authority over competent others, she competently proved her ability to incompetently fire was even greater, when some of the best and brightest of the Democrat party fled her authority faster than the rats that left the sinking Titanic. Like Obama himself, she is only fully black when it serves her purpose, but we all know by her actions she is only half-black, half-truth, half-witted, half-gendered, mostly socialist, and a half-Baked Democrat party Gingerbread man who they can only run, run, as fast as they can, but you can’t elect her she’s a crumbly ginger bread man, one stale biscuit shaped in the form of an undigestible half-American, Biden insane human Presidential want to be. You think this party cannot sink any lower,,,,then they do, offering one whose line between ethics and illusions, is to beguile the Republicans in lines to vote, into more democrat vote counting booths of election corruption. Trump’s comments about Harris may prove “repulsive”, but only because they are a rare American exercise in speaking the ugly “TRUTH”.
SINCE the gal who asked Don that, couldn’t even define what DEI was, HOW exactly did she expect trump to answer her?
Harris, who is of Jamaican and Indian descent, attended Howard University, a historically Black college.
I am Irish and German decent, I attended a college in in Japan. Does that make me Japanese?
Or does chameleon Kamala follow Tinkerbell Barack Obama’s philosophy, that one can be whatever they relate to being.
Harris and Obama,,,both half-black, half witted, half properly gendered, half-American and all socialist traitors to American values which will make America mediocre AGAIN, once she replaces Joe, the sacrificail duped white dude who never saw it coming.
ITS not related to what their DNA says, but what they feel.
