“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. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said while addressing the group’s annual convention.
What an utter waste of DNA. And that was only the start of all the racist shit he said.
I’m reminded of Jon Stewart the other day:
Two races in one person‽ If these people ever saw a Pizza Hut-Taco Bell, they’d lose their minds!
Das Racist already covered this issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIt2CdbBo_w
Thank you. I watched this two times and now I have a better understanding of the combination pizza hut and taco bell.
Just a spaghetti western.
Wait until they hear about the Kentaco Hut.
I don’t know, is Trump a flaming sack of shit or a racist liar?
😱 Something can be two things at the same time??? Like a billionaire and a fraud??? Or a candidate and a felon???
A thought:
If Trump thinks that Kamala Harris should claim she’s Indian because she has an Indian mother, then Barack Obama should claim he’s white for the same reason.
Too bad no one in the press will bring that up to him.
I never considered that!
By that same logic, I have been rumored to have slept with all of my friends from high school and every gamer with whom I’ve interacted online
I shoulda gone to your high school, apparently.
We woulda been friends!
Let the rumors begin!
I heard that at Jessica’s party, while everyone was playing 7 Minutes in Heaven, we were making out in her mom’s car and that our mustaches got tangled.
I also heard that we put gerbils in each other’s butts, which is ridiculous since we only used hamsters.
I doubt he’s a billionaire.
I guarantee he is worth at least eight pounds!
Translation:
“Don’t bother going out to vote for her, black people, she’s not actually black.”
If she wins, black Americans will have saved our asses AGAIN.
Which is interesting considering the criticism they gave Biden for the “you ain’t black” comment four years ago.
Well-deserved criticism. The sentiment of “You’re voting against your best interests” was correct, but the phrasing was terrible.
Regardless, what Trump is saying is hardly different.
I think there is a difference, but I’ve seen your arguments with people on here and know I’m far outmatched! I’m gonna be like Trump debating Kamala and chicken out.
Black Americans have consistently been one of the greatest aspects of this country so that tracks.
It’s becoming increasingly apparent to most of us.
I mean the guy launched his political career over racist conspiracies with Obama
If you ignore his original
griftrun for president in 2000 as a Reform Party member.He talked about running since the 80s.
“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. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said while addressing the group’s annual convention.
There’s some other good stuff in there but that’s the one that stood out to me as new.
“Now” she wants to be black. As if her father wasn’t Jamaican.
I’ve heard people seriously saying that Jamaicans aren’t black. Like what the hell?
Apparently they’ve never seen a picture of Bob Marley.
Blindian
Indiack sounds cooler.
Not exactly a great strategy to win over black voters…
I can’t believe there are Black and Latinos voting for this orange turd. And some of them are my ignorant immigrant family. Like, hello??
Latinos, especially older ones that escaped authoritarian regimes that pretend to be communist, I get. They are terrified of communists and socialists, which is how the Republicans paint Democrats. It’s almost like triggering PTSD for some of those folks.
Yeah, and I wish that were it! Honestly. I totally get it, too. But in our case, my die-hard MAGAt aunt and her son both crossed the border illegally. They’re not old or uneducated. Our government has never been authoritarian or communist during her lifetime. Like, she even has another gay son, ffs. I don’t get it. lol
Ignorant racists with a poor understanding of government and history come in all colors.
He’s not hoping to win them over, but to discourage them from voting at all.
“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. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” Trump said
“I didn’t know about this thing, so it didn’t happen until I knew about it” is a concept my child needs to learn about, not a presidential candidate…
He doesn’t understand how sombody can be more than one thing. Because everyone around him is so one dimensional.
Indian mother and a black father and still American? How is this possible?! Its nearly as if she fell out of a coconut tree.
Who knew that health care could be so complicated? No one.
I would beg someone to explain code switching for him, but I doubt he’d care.
Yes. Please keep being weird and racist. This is exactly how you demotivate all the normies from voting for you.
Wow who could have seen this one coming? Trump used this platform they gave him to spread racist evil shit. What a PR disaster for them and a PR Boone for Trump.
I’m not sure this was quite the boon for Trump. He hasn’t faced anything but soft ball Fox News reporters for years, and just made headlines for pitching a fit after being interviewed by actual journalists
The people who are into evil racist shit already know everything he has to say on that front. The people who aren’t into the evil racist shit but only watch other specific sources that don’t show it, don’t normally get to see that side of him.
First of all anyone who doesn’t know Trump’s into evil racist shit by now is unreachable and that seems like a moot point to me. But again the message of this event is not in the people who watched it. It’s the victory of Association. Trump to his base; see the blacks had me in to tell them the truth and now they know how it really is. That’s going to be the message. And there are going to be a few racist that he’s going to reach with this who might not have voted before. People who weren’t inspired by the idea of voting against old man Joe Biden are going to be paying a little more attention now.
Liberals and leftists have never understood this about conservative politics. Conservatives completely control narratives. Actual events actual facts never matter. That’s exactly why for instance they wanted that audio testimony of Joe Biden when they already had the transcripts. Same exact thing. It’s not about what’s actually said it’s about the easy picture the easy sound clip the easy message. You can’t give them easy openings. You have to make them work for it. When they have to sell their people on facts and arguments and policies they fail.
I guess the good thing this indicates is that black people as a population have significant voting power if the Trump campaign tactic is to alienate Harris from black voters
Now we know why they gerrymander so hard, b/c otherwise their ghouls probably won’t even come close to being elected
Can we just collectively question Trump’s race? Idf if he is a tomato or an orange 🤷♂️
What’s really amazing is that he doubled down on this.
Trump cannot admit he’s wrong. That’ such an attractive personality trait, isn’t it…
What race are orange people?
Oompa Loompa
Must be something else surely?Oompa Loompas have a pretty good grasp on ethics.
On the other hand, they may rely on a ruler for the formation of their system of government.
Perhaps Oompa Loompas ruled by Slugworth evolve differently. But then, who is Slugworth?
But he only turned orange a few years ago.
They are the race to the bottom
Is he red or yellow??
He’s too racist for either
Desperate, old and just really fucking weird.
Trump’s campaign is going swimmingly as this will surely win over more black voters.

If you have any questions or comments about me, you can make a post to LW Support lemmy community.Honestly, not even as terrible as I thought he’d be. How he managed to not get hot-miked saying the n-word all day is beyond me. And I’ll definitely take Disaster Don saying Harris isn’t Black over Retirin’ Biden saying voters aren’t Black!
Yeah it could be worse, but as all things with him, he’s walking that thin line and he knows it. “It’ll all be fixed!” Mmm-hmm!
