Trump running on Kamala pretending not to be black

And.

Very weird.

Trump is starting to sound like those chicks on LipstickAlley. 😂😂

She was in a Black sorority in college. Trump is so fucking stupid and this will be the thing that finally backfires on him.

Yes I love it. All my black people kind of soft on Kamala right now. This will motivate them to vote. Fuck these crackas think they talking 2.

[quote]and this will be the thing that finally backfires on him.

No, it won't.

Unlike Magas most Americans are able to understand two things can be true at once.

They don't know what they are talking about as usual.

[quote] for a fun trip back down memory lane, back in 2020 when Democrats were calling Trump racist, his campaign pointed to his old contributions to Harris as proof he was not. "Kamala Harris is a Black Woman and he donated to her campaign. So I hope we can squash this racism argument."

D'oh!

Personally, I think Trump doing this is a low blow, which is not unusual for him, but Kamala can't really run on her understanding of the black experience in America, having spent most of her formative years living in Montreal, with not a lot of black kids around.

Trump changed the news cycle and went full tilt into race. But instead of leaning into her being Black, which he has been cautioned not to do, he’s pretending she is NOT Black. Then all of his minions can pretend they are all not racist criticizing her because she isn’t black

Putting the content aside for a second, does it strike anyone else as particularly odd that Trump’s personal defense attorney is speaking at a rally?

Are we going to also hear from his chiropractor or accountant?

R11 But anyone with a brain can see the racism. Furthermore it’s not the racism but his lies are becoming more blatant. He knows dam well Kamala has lived her entire adult life, her entire life since her little self could understand race as a black American. And he is lying on her character by saying she just became black a few years ago.

Habba ain’t just habeas corpus!

R4 And get this. That black sorority was at a HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGE UNIVERSITY.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

Perhaps I'm becoming a bit jaded by Shitler's antics, but accusing her of not being black seems like weak sauce indeed. I mean I guess after childless cat lady crack fell flat they had to scramble, but still. #LAME!

Because he is imploding so bad I am fairly confident KH will win. That internal polling must have been him up his coke and adderall.

Bringing her race into the campaign is disgusting but not surprising. They have to appeal to their base.

Interesting that she attended Howard University before realizing she was black.

The Fox five/Watters apparently said now Trump owns the headlines for the next few days, is a straight shooter and went “into the lion’s den” and spoke his mind.He said people respect that. He mentioned things being politically correct for so long…. Here we go again. 👎 🗑️

There are so many mixed race black children in America. The Dems need to really play this up. Make a commercial featuring biracial kids.

And they need to ask Trump why he won’t debate Kamala.

Throw this moron out with the rest of the trash.

Look at him, pretending to be human. He can’t be human. He has the empathy of a serial killer.

R20, I saw Al Sharpton say somewhere that he didn’t go there to try to gain any black votes. He went there to insult and demean them, and Harris, so his base can see him doing what they’d like to do if they had the courage, to say what he and they really think.

The whole comment on Kamala not really being black is something that he probably heard from Diamond and Silk, that black prople saint really see her as black. They tried it with Obama early on, but his community activism and ties to the black church deflected that.

He knew exactly what he was doing - owning the libs. At least, that's what his base is saying. He has no intention of expanding his voters, he is just interested in entertaining his base, a group just large enough to intimidate and threaten, so that the rest of the party will tremble and kowtow and media will do the same.

[quote] I saw Al Sharpton say somewhere that he didn’t go there to try to gain any black votes.

Honey, no one should be watching Al Sharpton.

R25 Fortunately only one half of that duo still exists. Diamond died from Covid. Poetic justice?

I think he got it from Roseanne. Isn't this sort of why she got fired by ABC?

R29. Possibly. He may be establishing that he doesn’t know that she’s black so that he can innocently compare her to an ape in the future.

R29 Roseanne was talking about Valerie Jarrett who is much fairer and paler than Kamala. Kamala is light skin but has a bright brown complexion.

Don, Jr. is running the show. He has a snarky, cynical, bigoted fratboy take on the world.

That's why he likes to shoot things.

Sharpton also said Trump's trying to "birther" her because that had traction against Obama. It's an attack method he knows how to do.

Trump running on being a moron and morons will vote for him.

He saw the elation from the opposition and had to kill it with his stream of toxic bullshit

Honestly I hope she pivots quickly away from race stuff because sadly this could work for him. After 2016 I have zero faith.

R36 It’s not working. Even those on his side are perplexed as fuck. How could this obvious black woman have not realized she was black until she was fifty something. Or are pretty light skin chicas no longer considered black because they are pretty and/or light skin. You never know with Magas. It’s so outrageous everyone’s realizes it’s just a blatant lie on Kamala’s character.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

Let's face it, Trump is over. TG.

R37, I hear you I just don't trust others.

R36, she didn’t start this. Put down the pipe.

Was she really born here? Why hasn't she released her birth certificate? Where was she on 9/11? I'm not racist, it's just all very suspicious. She should just answer the questions and not be so defensive. I heard she deleted thousands of emails too, why the cover-up?

From Scaramucci:

R42 I thought of that too. It wouldn’t surprised me. He is a racist quitter. It also wouldn’t surprised me if the Republican POWERS THAT BE pay him to go away. Things will get ugly these next 100 days.

I wish what you were saying would happen R43. But there's nothing that will stop him running. It's too late. Nothing he can say or do will cause the GOP to back away from him. They are all on this train and it left the station a long time ago. Most of what he said at the NABJ is wholeheartedly supported by Republicans anyway.

I was quite surprised by Scaramucci's tweet actually. I have a lot of respect for him and his opinions. Let's hope it happens but we shouldn't hold our breath.

Nothing new for him. Have we already forgotten his whole Birther/Muslim attack on Obama. It did get some traction among wingnuts at the time.

He and they are doing it again R45:

Good lawd Magas are ignorant. There is no section for the race of the child. And only in America 1964 would Kamala’s Indian mom be classified as Caucasian on official documents. Only in 1960s America sans New York City.

VIDEO----------->>[bold] KAMALA saying she is an INDIAN......whoops....Trump is an idiot. But Kamala HAS called herself Indian.. [/bold]...

R48 when has she ever denied being Indian. Kamala reminds me of my mom to be honest. She is half black half Latino. I don’t want to say where because it may give it away too much autobiographical info of myself when I become famous. Two things can be true at once. She is both black and Indian-American. I hate the brain of a basic white person. Even the brain of a basic black person or Chinese person has some realness. I hate basic white people. HATE. Yes it’s a strong motherfucking word and I hate em. Sorry Jesus.

Also r48 my vitriol isn’t directed at you. I get our intent. Thanks for posting the vid btw. She is so loveable.

I just thought about it. Us black people should claim India like white people did with countries with pale skin that have 0 connection DNA wise after they invented whiteness. Indians are black now. Mad Indians are darker than me. They black yo. A very successful, intelligent group of people.

This is embarrassing to have this conversation. People like this should be mocked mercilessly and then ignored.

Look how TSF took back the news cycle, he won the ratings for the day which was his stated goal from day 1. What did we miss yesterday? The shooter turned out to be a BLM trans activist. Kidding. He was exactly who you think he was. 700 anti-semitic and anti immigrant ravings.

Your* intent smdh

The Harris campaign said in a statement, “The hostility Donald Trump showed on stage today is the same hostility he has shown throughout his life, throughout his term in office, and throughout his campaign for president as he seeks to regain power and inflict his harmful Project 2025 agenda on the American people."

The statement goes on to say, "Donald Trump has already proven he cannot unite America, so he attempts to divide us," .

She is hitting all the right notes. She is my Momala. I chatted with some 19 yr old white females in 7/11 today. We were both buying ice lol. They are super excited. They see her as the Beyoncé of politics.

Trump's Scottish German brain can't understand a lot of stuff

[quote] He didn't go there to try to gain any black votes. He went there to insult and demean them, and Harris, so his base can see him doing what they'd like to do if they had the courage, to say what he and they really think.

R25 I agree. I think this was Trump’s idea of showing “dominance” over “the Blacks” for his main voter demographic.

[quote]The Fox five/Watters apparently said now Trump owns the headlines for the next few days, is a straight shooter and went “into the lion’s den” and spoke his mind.He said people respect that. He mentioned things being politically correct for so long…. Here we go again.

In a sense they're right: this kind of thing is chum to the people who hate minorities, gay, uppity women, etc - Trump Supporters. The problem is that those people were already in his camp. He needs to win over others.

I hope he keeps doing this kind of thing because it reminds me of what things were like under Trump - all the craziness, drama, divisiveness. Is this really what you want to go back to? Obviously, for a certain segment of the population, the answer is yes. But I'm hoping it convinces just enough people, particularly minorities, about how life will be under Shitler

At this point I see no scenario where Trump can win: Kamala caught him up in a matter of days, she's winning the culture war, and she yas yet to choose a VP candidate and benefit from the convention. So now Trump sees prison as a real possibility ahead of him and he's trapped in a vicious circle where the better Harris polls, the more unhinged he becomes and the more unhinged he becomes and the more repellent he becomes the better Harris polls. It wouldn't be a problem with someone with a normal brain, who can shift direction but Trump's brain is not wired like regular people: he can only double down, triple down, quadruple down. Just like he did when Laura Ingraham asked him, sorry: BEGGED HIM, to please take back the promise that Christians won't need to vote after the next election because it will be a done deal: he doubled down, tripled down and quadrupled down.

In other words, the only strategy Trump knows (doubling down) not only is not going to work for him this time, but it will flat out work against him. He is going to lose in a landslide and please read the following sentence in Trump's voice just to enjoy it even more:

[quote]it will be the biggest rout people will have ever seen in the history of the world; oh what a rout it is going to be. It will be so vicious and so horrible that it will be beautiful. Sad.

You just couldn’t make this shit up. The orange Führer is beyond a parody of himself at this point. What a utter embarrassment he is.

Here's the whole 34 minutes. It's worse than the Challenger take off explosion - but a lot longer.

Soon, Dump will begin using the N word in public. We all know he uses it in private.

IF he thinks he’s going down in a landslide, I can actually see Trump going dark in the end. Not dropout per se, but just holing up in Mar-a-Lago. Tanking his party in the process because he cares about nothing but himself.

"I know who my roots are". Oops. Love the little falter as she realised she fucked that phrase up.

All this is a gift to Harris. Focusing on her race will only please the white racists - and Trump already has their vote. If he keeps on with this line, it just pushes more moderates and people of colour away. But, like I've said elsewhere, maybe that's the aim. Maybe he doesn't really want to win and would prefer to whine about it being "stolen" again.

He’s facing the hoosegow, R63. He really wants to win.

I was about to say this is like the Obama Birth Certificate debacle and then I had a proper read through of the thread to see Laura Loomer has already posted Harris' Birth Certificate. Even though it backfired, because there's no space for a child's ethnicity on there, it almost doesn't matter because Trumpers will just read the start of that tweet and hail it as definitive proof.

I've seen too many depressing interviews with supporters at Trump rallies to know this lie has now been accepted and will be propagated. My imagining:

"Why don't you like Kamala Harris?"

"Well, she lied about her roots. First she said she was Indian and now she says she's black!"

"Her mother was Indian and her father was black and at different times in her life she's referred to both of those ethnicities being part of her background."

"No, she lied! And I can't trust a liar. Also, she keeps changing how her name is said... Is it Kam-uh-luh, Ka-mar-lah, no one knows! She can't be trusted."

"...."

Was it really a debacle, R65? It did give birth to a political movement & presidency.

And JD has spoken. What a smug, smarmy, pathetic excuse for a man.

Trump’s mother was an immigrant. How does that sit with his loony followers?

R68 She white tho. You ever talk to any Maga. I have a handful of Maga friends some educated. They’re all white. I got 2 of them to admit their bias as it pertains to this subject. Because WHITENESS.

I question whether Trump is white.

R70 yo I was saying today she should respond like that. Get dirty with this cunt. It will motivate the young people.

Kamala is too smart to let this nonsense distract from the myriad of actual important issues we have to worry about. Who fucking cares about her ethnicity?

R67 I wonder Vance's wife thinks deep down. I mean, you've got a man who's married to a woman of Indian heritage defending his Dear Leader who's making racist comments.

I know Vance would square it as "my wife is proud of her heritage and has never lied about it", but no one can deny Vance is effectively being forced to defend Trump's racist comments. His wife must surely see it.

r70, Asking about the Drumpf family is fair game, as is his history of cheating. He paid someone to take his SATs and his sister is on tape talking about how she wrote all his papers in college and what an idiot he'd become. Notice how the MSM never ties all the stories together. Father was a draft dodging Nazi, racist, abusive asshole, his grandfather dodged the draft and his mother was an impoverished immigrant. Though some say his real father is the devil, IDK, I read it on the internets.

Seriously, isn't this story worth a second look?

So she's a DEI candidate who tried to conceal she was black?

She's a Sephardic Jew. Her real name is Carmella Haravitz.

So is she bleck?

Sociopath tries to act normal but can't.

This old guy 80 years old falls on his face, I turn away, I felt terribly, you know those beautiful marble floors, it was disgusting.

Trump and his campaign have no problem destroying the social fabric of this country in the pursuit of power. Vance's comments at R67 confirm that.

Republicans reel at Trump’s “embarrassing” remarks:

R80 Not surprising. And, up until recently, we know Vance would have been one of the ones calling Trump names.

R80 Yet if he wins and the GOP retains the House and gains the Senate then they'll have no problem with them.

Isn't it obvious that they have no platform or anything substantive? But, even for them, this is ridiculous and not worth anyone's time. But, the media will keep it in the foreground.

That Axios article pissed me off because it gave Hogan credit for chastising Trump when in reality Hogan didn’t even have the guts to mention Trump’s name. But he is also running against a Black woman and I hope this helps her in the polls.

R78 he’s talking about Simon Fireman, the then-chairman of Palm Beach’s Red Cross Ball, who fell off the stage. Nice how Trump talks about him, supposedly a friend. Which doesn’t surprise me as Fireman was, in his way, just as much of an asshole as Trump. Fireman was a convicted criminal (bundling illegal campaign contributions for Bob Dole) before Trump was, though.

The Blackfire has begun!

Habba is allowed to show her face at a Trump gathering? Losers all around.

Habba is Iraqi but she had a nose job and wears blonde hair extensions. Talk about pretense. Not to mention Trump's last name is really Drumpf.

She’s not a well woman.

Honestly, idk how the other journalists in that room could stomach that traitor’s utter disrespect.

It would have been hard to sit there and listen to him cunt it up without throwing something at him. HARD.

What a fucking prick.

The good thing is that the hostage release has pushed his antics aside and he isn't getting the attention he desperately craved and planned to get with his deliberate attacks.

OMG, Donald Trump was born in Jamaica, too!!

[quote]Republicans reel at Trump’s “embarrassing” remarks

Ah got the vapors and had to purely collapse onto Grandmother's fainting couch!

Fortunately, Rochester was there to wave a bottle of pop — of oil of peppermint under mah nose.

r90, That's a good point, they couldn't have been more restrained if they'd had been guarded by mean nuns, one hundred percent respectful and intelligent. Like good reporters they stayed out of the story and watched the bomb explode. Let's take notes, who what where when how and why the fuck this guy, he's insane, call an ambulance. I half expected him turn over a table and shout "prostitution whore".

It just dawned on me. Could Trump have high functioning Asperger’s but the fact that he is a sociopath makes him charming. Well he is so ugly now he can’t be charming but you know what I mean. He has so many aversions, unique pattern of behaviors, only eats fast food and generally only burgers, all wives are Russian.

This wasn't an off-the-cuff comment. This is the Trump campaign's new coordinated strategy: that Harris can't be both Indian and black.

Mommy, Daddy - Am I White or am I Indian?

Actually, Donald, Nimarata was the one who tried to downplay her Indian heritage.

R97 you are one generation removed from white trash, cunt. Count your blessings.

And it continues ... Trump's latest post on TruthSocial.

She should thank him back for his donation.

I think the Trump campaign's strategy -- and yes, it's weird and racist and offensive -- is: "Voters may be ready for a black woman as president, but they're not ready for an Indian president. So let's convince everyone that Harris is Indian, not black." They figure that young voters and black voters (the two groups where Harris is doing better than Biden was) will be less enthusiastic about her if they come to believe she's Indian, not black. Yes, it's insane -- even more so when you realize that JD Vance's wife is Indian -- but there you go.

R95, none of his wives have been Russian.

[quote]And they need to ask Trump why he won’t debate Kamala.

I’m not scared of her. I don’t speak Ebonics so I don’t know what it be like.
