Vice-president brushes off remarks by Donald Trump in which he said Harris ā€˜happened to turn Blackā€™ a number of years ago

Kamala Harris has shrugged off Donald Trumpā€™sĀ questioning of her racial identity, saying that it was ā€œthe same old showā€ and that ā€œAmerica deserves betterā€, at a rally in Texas.

On Wednesday, in anĀ appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ), Trump antagonised senior Black journalists and questioned Harrisā€™s race, saying, ā€œShe was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didnā€™t know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black.ā€

His interview, which was meant to last an hour,Ā according toĀ Axios, was cut short after 34 minutes.

      He doesnā€™t have that thing in his head we all have to tell him what he is about to say is fucking stupid. Itā€™s a direct path from brain to mouth.

        Ironically, that is also the secret to his success because his moronic cultists perceive it as ā€œauthenticā€.
