The event was combative from the start as Trump and three moderators from the National Association of Black Journalists sparred throughout.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ race took center stage in a combative back-and-forth exchange with former President Donald Trump during a panel discussion Wednesday at a gathering of Black journalists in Chicago.
“I did not know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black and now wants to be known as Black,” Trump said.
“I respect either one," he added, "but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went she became Black. … Somebody should look into that too.”
It was in response to a question about the appropriateness of some Republicans saying Harris is a “DEI hire,” a term referring to workplace policies promoting “diversity, equity and inclusion.” It has increasingly been used by some on the right to discredit people of colorwith opposing political views.
Dare I say that it’s starting to feel like Trumps campaign is unraveling. A bit.
I don’t know, man, I honestly think this is about as raveled as his campaign has ever been.
It kinda feels like both. We are seeing his campaign machine at full speed, but for some reason it feels a bit broken. I guess we’ll see where everything is in a month or so.
a dam has been broken… the dam that was joe bidens terrible idea at running. you had millions of people resolved to picking the older guy by default because fascism. they werent voting for president, they were voting against trump.
harris has enabled a metric fuck-tonne of people to stand up and get energized for a capable human being.
at the same time trumps campaign has been squarely focused on intimidating/making fun of biden. they are hopelessly lost in re-grouping n an attempt to attack harris. lets hope it stays discombobulated
AND then theres the Weird thing, which is sticking for some reason. awesome!
Honestly. I see so many people saying Trump and republicans are falling apart and they’re terrified, but I’m like, this is the exact same rhetoric we’ve been getting from them for 8 years.
i wouldnt say falling apart… i would say ‘stumbling’. i do think the stumble is worse now than hes ever experienced.
- attendance is down at all his rallies.
- the negative press is increasing for a now convicted felon running against a prosecutor can only get sweeter.
- he picked a vp that is a revolting couch-fucker compared to the chaste previous incarnation.
- hes about to have to pay 450 milllion dollars.
- he is now saying the fascist dictator plans out loud.
thats just off the top of my head.
… and then theres the other side… harris is rallying people in volumes we havent seen since obama
Remember 2016. Everybody thought he would lose, said his campaign was a train wreck… He’s saying the same shit that got him elected last time.
So I wouldn’t say it’s unraveling. This is the kind of campaign that can make him win.
He won’t have Comey in the eleventh hour handng him a huge gift in reopening the investigation that never had anything to go on for years because they found another laptop with all the same data on it as before but ’ it might be illegal until we double verify it’s all the exact same data as our analysts have already said it is ’

Didn’t you mean to say Donald Trump is a weird creepy old man?

Kamala Harris was “Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went, she became a Black person.”
