Trump Faces Backlash for Questioning Harris' Racial Identity

Donald Trump is facing intense backlash for questioning Kamala Harris' racial identity. The audience of Black journalists laughed in disbelief over his remarks. However, Trump is not backing down. Some of his allies on Fox News are praising him for just showing up at a conference of Black journalists. At an event honoring a Black sorority last night, Harris says "It was the same old show, the divisiveness and the disrespect, and let me just say the American people deserve better."

If you ask me, she’s half Indian, half black.

Just say you’re mixed race.

She promoted herself being the first Indian-American senator in CA.

THAT IS

The crowd cheered laughed when he said she turned black.

[GY-hdbr]

She didn’t claim her black side until it was convenient to her

[scentualobsessions]

She didn’t even show up to a black event and Trump did

[wxrdxe]

America always fight about race and gender 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

[thebroketraveller]

The real story should be is the criticism even justified? Kamala herself literally said she was Indian lol

[kagenou]

She promoted herself being the first Indian-American senator in CA.

[annacoats]

It is true. She claimed to be Indian.

Why isn’t Judge Joe Brown getting backlash he put it out there exactly how it is and also said Kamala Harris is not black and he knows her father personally so he would know

[GoogleUser-kmjy]

Wow even the media is against him & think we don’t realize it 🤣

[kaptain]

I am still waiting for the backlash that inside edition is telling us coming from the people. All they show us is the media and their talking points.

[scentualobsessions]

Why don’t you talk about the judge Joe Brown interview about Kamala Harris? She’s not black.

[bitofeverything]

I mean, he's not wrong. Years ago she herself said she was Indian. Now she's saying she's black. People will say "She's mixed so she's both". Okay, then why not go for that to begin with. Why spend years as just "Indian" then suddenly say she's always been "Black".

Don't get mad at him when THEY invited him to the event and THEY asked him these questions, in a tone that didn't show any signs of neutrality or respect, which is something that's been lacking in Journalism for years.

[Cookingclover]

She's what ever is most convenient for her and her campaign.

[hemavathikumar]

She is half Indian then how is she BLACK ... ?

[inflation]

Will she ran as " FIRST pacific asian " in California, now she's playing the black card for president. You tell use who's confused?

[Elisa-rg]

She’s not a black African American her father is Jamaican and Irish her mom is East Indian. Listen to the interview her father did he has a thick Jamaican accent. She is not a Black American

[tomround]

Remember when she lied about celebrating kwanza😂

[maddoxtodd]

I dont think ive seen any Black person get mad at this, Im black and I think what he said was absolutley hilarious and true. Ive only really seen white people or really anyone thats not black get offended over this. I do not blame the Man for standing his ground.
