She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage, Trump said.
I didnt know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black…
So I dont know.

Is she Indian or is she Black?
I respect either one, but she obviously doesnt.
Trumps vice presidential nominee, Sen. J.D.
I think he pointed out the fundamental chameleon-like nature of Kamala Harris, Vance said Wednesday.
It was actually played up a lot when she came into the Senate.
Now shes running nationally, obviously the campaign has shifted.
Theyre talking much more about her fathers heritage and her Black identity.
It doesnt really matter.
The [former] president barely mentioned it.
But George Stephanopoulos did not let Donalds get away with lying about Harris racial background.
You just repeated the slur again.
If it doesnt matter, why do you all keep questioning her identity?
Shes always identified as a Black woman.
She has a Jamaican father and an Indian mother.
Shes always identified as both.
Why are you questioning that?
This is something thats actually a conversation throughout social media right now, Donalds dodged.
A lot of people are trying to figure this out.
When pressed by@GStephanopouloson why former Pres.
Trump and his allies are questioning Vice Pres.
Why do you insist on questioning her racial identity?
This racist talking point was debunked long ago.
So questioning someones racial identity for two minutes is OK?
None of this matters to the American people, Donalds added.
George, actually, Im not the one who keeps repeating it.
George, youre the one thats bringing it up now, Donalds replied.
Sir, youve done it three times.
You continue to repeat the… slur.
Lets move on, Donalds pleaded after five minutes of back-and-forth.
Are you personally OK with him questioning whether shes Black?
Ed, he wasnt saying what matters is how she identifies as her race, Cotton said.
He explicitly said he didnt care.
The other was fine.
She identifies as a dangerous San Francisco liberal.
Thats the danger to the American people.
Its not by accident; its intentional, a person close to Trump toldRolling Stoneof the attacks.
Were behind the [former] president, 100 percent.
