Yeah, he didn't say that.

Just like he didn't say white supremacists were fine people
Or that mexicans are rapists.

I'm pretty sure no one thinks she's Indian either, but that's irrelevant.
It all depends on which vote bank she's trying to attack.

Being a "black" woman, attracts white suburban women which is her target. (the men are irrelevant)
Trump on the other hand, is trying to attract the black male, and any females who can see through the destructive policies that democrats have put them through.

So now its cool for leftists to support a person whose family owned a bunch of slaves? I thought no matter what, that was an egregious sin that can never be forgiven....

or is that only if you are white? Or only when it's convenient to tear down history?

Correct. He didn't say that. Why do posters think that's what he said?

Like I've said, you can tell which posters still watch legacy media. They just go with what they're told.

Trumps answers to the questions asked were less than optimal. Maybe not horrible but could have been much better. Needs some tutoring from Tucker Carlson imo.

His answers were fine. I don't know why people still think he cares about being PC. He speaks his mind. It's the reason so many people like him. He's genuine.

If a fake world, that holds a lot of water.

He could be a much better communicator tho. As you say, his answers were fine or ok. Tucker would have chewed them up and spit them out.

That interview didn't hurt trump in any way. More blacks will vote for trump than any conservative ever. The black community is slowly but steadily waking up to the Democrat playbook of pandering to them. You just have to get out of the MSM echo chamber to see it. Go on Twitter and you will see thousands of blacks condemning the way they handled that interview and commending Trump for participating. Kamala didn't even show. They're calling out Kamala for having the twerking rapper at her rally and for pretending to be black.

When did he say that Harris wasn't black?

He asked about her changing how she wanted to be identified.
" 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."

It is completely normal for bi-racial people to identify multiple ways. She went to Howard, for crying out loud.

Trump going for this at NABJ of all places was an awful idea. I guarantee you there were a lot of bi-racial people that identify with how Kamala talks about her heritage depending on her surroundings, and that doesn't negate the other side of her heritage that isn't being talked about at that particular time.

She changes who she is in order to pander. She goes to Atlanta and starts talking with a southern accent. She gets in front of a black audience, and she starts acting black. She is with an Indian and she changes herself to match. It's pandering - there's nothing authentic about it. Trump is forcing people to notice that.
And certain people are incapable of seeing the obvious fact regarding VP Harris' unethical pandering based on race/ethnicity/region/culture. I would compare her to a chameleon, but the chameleon does this for defense she does it for votes and power.

Is this the same Axios that referred to Kamala as the "Border Czar" a few years ago and then last week said she was never the border czar? Their reporting seems credible.
James Clapper would refer to this as "the kill shot".
Citing anything from Axios is a complete failure.

And...who cares...

I've got bigger things to worry about than someone "acting black" or "acting Indian," whatever that means.

Why not just say, "I couldn't care less about a person's skin color, or how they choose to identify. Let other people do that. I have no interest in reverting to some 1985 South African clown show. If you'll excuse me, I've got important issues to discuss and a nation to lead."

I literally just said that. It's going to blow your mind, but most of us knew her heritage prior to her running for president. Quit playing the race card. Focus on policy, she needs at least one to run on that isn't "not Trump."
She's biracial. She can identify as both Black and Indian.

And just to refute you and how wrong you are; Her Indian mother, astutely recognizing the prejudices at play in America, raised her and her sister as black knowing that's how they would be perceived and treated.

Harris has said her mother deliberately raised her and her sister as Black because she felt that was how the world would see them first.

https://apnews.com/article/kamala-harris-election-black-asian-multiracial-b57f251022d549e38b3c17946347f025

She graduated from Howard University and is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha. Hope you learned something today!
Ahhhh....so she can identify as however she wants now?

The first question she should get asked in any interview is

How does it feel to be black and the direct descendant of one the largest enslavers of the Atlantic slave trade?

How do you reconcile your guilt for that and do you draw any parallels between your great grandfather being a slaver with you falsely imprisoning 1,000's of black men to use them for slave labor while you were AG of California?
Or maybe stop the racial/ethnic pandering and identify as an American that believes in the Constitution and rule of law.
The Democrats Party leadership thrives on division and primes the pump with division based on lies and innuendo.
Wasn't it Saul Alinsky who said:
  • The organizers first job is to create the issues or problems, and organizations must be based on many issues. The organizer must first rub raw the resentments of the people of the community; fan the latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expression. He must search out controversy and issues, rather than avoid them, for unless there is controversy people are not concerned enough to act. . . . An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent.

Every second Trump spends talking about what race/color Harris may be is a second he will lose support and drop in the poll.

no, i think trump and republicans attacking her with the "she's not black" and the "she's a wh***" messaging is racist and misogynist, because it so plainly is. these are not nuanced critiques of her policy, they're deeply disordered lizard brain outbursts. very weird!
No one's critiquing Kamala's policies because she has no policy. She can't make up her mind what she believes in.

Also, too much MSNBC bro

This got lost in the debate in this forum. He said he thought she was Indian because of the way she manipulates what people perceive her to be.

Exactly. And, it was part of her personal marketing campaign, again, as she came up through the ranks in California D politics. Then it changed, which is fine, because she is biracial after all, but Trump is savage about her marketing shift;



His point imho is/was that the race hustlers want to make it a racial issue, now, and frankly some folks who are black I think recognize the shenanigans of the hustlers.
