Honest question. Is Trump deliberately trying to throw this election? Making dumb, racist statements isnt going to win it fur ya, Don, but keep making them! Nothing could help our side more!

You've dutifully memory holed that she ran as the first Indian Senator. As Trump says, she later became black.

Harris is mixed race

She is Jamaican Black (Father) and  Indian (Mother)
She identifies as black when it is her favor and as Indian when that is in her favor  

 
2024 = Trump270+

Every Democrat has to admit that Kamala will NEVER allow herself to face a hostile press.

Trump makes those statements because he's been his authentic self. He actually didn't know. Like many things he doesn't know. You know, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Don Jr. thinks his mom was an olympian.

It’s amazing he would talk about her race. He should focus on issues but he just can’t help but go to his default setting. His advisors are ripping their hair out, if he even has advisors any more. Just so bad morally and politically. What an evil man.

He was asked about her race.

So what you are saying is they threw a tough question at him that was not prepared to answer.

Robert asked why he mentioned her race. Trump was asked about it.

Yes, I understood that part. What I don't understand is how he so poorly answered that question.

That opinion might mean something if your ever thought a non-progressive answer was done well. We call that concern trolling.

lmao what? Concern trolling?!? You got one part right, it is my opinion. A respectful person would recognize my right to have one, even if it's not a shared opinion.

A radical far left militant progressive hack would think he answered it poorly.

But you be you, nothing to be ashamed of……you know what I mean…. right

Btw you do have a right to your opinion, no one said or implied otherwise.
But as a political hack  twisting and distorting the truth is what you do.

He fell right into the trap! He should have said "Her race is unimportant to me. Her position on the issues is all I care about." That's what a NORMAL person would do. Make it about substantive issues but Trump being an imbecile, is all over the news tonight for his racist answer. Thanks for making my point!

Kamala when she claimed she was never put in charge of the border?   Or that she never said she wanted to give illegals free health care?  Or that she never pimped the bail fund for criminals in 2020?  Or that she was never for defunding the police?   What did the fact-checkers at CNN say about these?  

Besides flip flopping on whether her upbringing was Indian culture or Jamaican, she's also now flip flops on no longer supporting a federal jobs guarantee.
.
She's running away from almost everything.

Or running away from Mike Pence? Or him being a Democrat his whole life until 2016? Or him running away from supporting the Iraq war before he was against it? Like those Lester?

He wants to stay on a stage after getting shot. He speaks in front of the Libertarian convention -- Biden ran away from it.  He goes for hostile interview in front of a black reporters group. He agreed to Biden debate terms and hands Biden his ass.

He does until he doesn't. But sometimes I question is it really big cojonjes or stupidity or both. Probably a mix. I more question his intellegence than his balls.

I see you, like Willy, do not know the difference between race and ethnicity. Race is a construct fabricated by people. It's based on skin color and rather subjective. Technically, there are 6 races, but people mostly talk about two, black and white, and make up ones that are not actually races. Mexican, on the other hand, is an ethnicity. An ethicity is based on the country of origin. This is why you only call someone a Mexican if they are from Mexico. And, why you call someone from Spain, who also speaks Spanish, a Spaniard. The wonderful thing about race and ethicity is that we have both. They are not exclusive. One is not Mexican or White or Black. Mexicans can be White or Black. Some may reject the very idea of being identified by a race. Oh wait, I know what you might think, since the most common mistake made by Americans is to think their race is Latino or Hispanic. Well now, these are not skins color identifiers and are not races. Anyone born in or with ancestors from Latin America and living in the U.S. can be identified as Latino or Hispanic, and like Mexicans they can be any race.

Trump's various statements during his appearance are an unmitigated disaster. A CNN panel included a Black Republican strategist who was scathing.  There were at least half a dozen statements that will be fodder for campaign ads targeting Black voters. I'm not sure who talked Trump into doing this but his thoughtless performance turned it into a disaster.
The only question is, was this one event a big enough disaster to destroy any hope of Trump taking significant new Black votes?  
Time will tell but it doesn't look good.

I haven’t gotten a chance to watch it yet, but judging by the reaction on X Trump laid the ever loving smackdown on these clowns. The co chair for this journalist organization has already resigned.

The person resigned BEFORE Trumps disastrous and racist words, not after. Pay attention Willy. Just once please.

Maybe he thinks Kamala and AOC are the same person? Not sure. Yeah this is really a big story. He is so dumb not to pass on the question. CNN is reporting numerous Republicans are squirming about the interview, as you stated. Trump just cant stay on message and Vance cant stop putting his foot in his mouth. The "Disastrous Duo" indeed.

I was just pointing out, this is what you Dems do… 🙄 brome whatever is most politically expedient and dear sweet Kamala is suddenly a moderate on everything?  

Did I mention?  

🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Just read the first paragraph! Trump was trying to "unite" the "entire" country today when talking about Kamala's blackness or lack thereof...or whatever the hell they are saying. It would be funny if not so pathetically sad.

But Trump has the mainstream media trying to explain whether Kamala is black, Indian, or Jamaican -- crowding out the coronation efforts in the news cycle.
.
If you are explaining you are losing.

...escorts who say they are Dominican/Brazilian, not black lol. Harris is black and proud is she not LOL!

Maybe it’s not going to get you the help you expect it will. An interesting take from Scott Greer
Trump's black journalist interview was good because it got the news to move on from the childless debate--a losing battle for the GOP--to classic Trump content.  

For those who think this was a bridge too far, you have to remember that everything he did in 2016 was considered a bridge too far. Yet, he won.

I think he blew that one. Also, his own staff thought he was blowing it so badly they pulled the plug after 35 minutes when the interview was supposed to run for an hour.

It's been 11 days and Kamala hasn't submitted to an interview or press conference.

"This is just an extraordinary testament to the importance of having a president who understands the power of diplomacy and understands the strength that rests in understanding the significance of diplomacy."
