Donald Trump is proving he’s racist and stupid with his latest post.
In a Truth Social post Thursday morning, Donald Trump appeared to suggest, again, that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris isn’t really Black, ramping up his identity-based attacks to the horror of those in his party who consider racism a losing electoral strategy.
Earlier in the week, many GOP strategists, including in the Trump camp, worried that attacks on Harris’s race and gender—which seemed all but inevitable considering Trump’s history of racism and misogyny—would pose a serious liability for the campaign. “We hope he doesn’t act like a crazy racist and sexist person, but we can’t control him,” a source close to the campaign told The Washington Post.
These hopes were quickly dashed in the course of Trump’s interview with the National Association of Black Journalists Wednesday afternoon, in which the candidate claimed that, for years, Vice President Kamala Harris “was Indian all the way, and then suddenly she made a turn and she became a Black person.”
He’s starting a rhetoric. He gaslights and soon there’ll be a bunch of Americans caught up in her origins and misleading representation of race. And you’ll wonder, “How the fuck did that actually stick?”
Will there? Maybe the racist ones who would never be voting for her anyway. Good, let them waste their time with it.
Yep, it’s just the new talking point from their supreme leader. It was “Sleepy Biden” before, now it’s “opportunistic race swapping Harris” (he is better with stupid names so he might come up with something more catchy, but that is the general direction).
They will gobble it up like all the shit they parrot all the time.
I had a realisation. Might be true; probably isn’t. But I have the feeling Trump read The Art of War.
Many of his actions seem to come straight from that book, but from a person that didn’t comprehend it appropriately.
