CHICAGO — Former President Donald Trump opened his appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists’ annual meeting by questioning whether or not Kamala Harris, the first Black vice president, is Black.
“She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump said of Harris, who attended Howard University, an HBCU. “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.”
“I respect either one,” Trump added, “but she obviously doesn’t.”
