    “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!

      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 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 keep my mustache far too short for them to have tangled. They’ll have to do better than that!

                    I do have to say that yours is nice and soft though. Do you condition it?

      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.

        Black Americans have consistently been one of the greatest aspects of this country so that tracks.

        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.

              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.

      This also feels like it’s implying some transphobic stuff, while also trying to paint the dems as mentally ill. “They don’t know what gender they are, now I guess they don’t know what race they are either!”

        I think you give that moron way too much credit. I think he honestly believes telling black people that Kamala isn’t black will work.
