Trump’s Pants on Fire claim about how Kamala Harris ‘became’ Black
When asked whether he agreed with some Republicans characterizing Harris as a “DEI hire,” Trump launched into an unwieldy attack, claiming Harris had always promoted being Indian and that he “didn’t know” whether she was Black.
“She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. 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 July 31. “I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t because she was Indian all the way and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and she went, she became a Black person.”
This is a blatantly false mischaracterization of Harris’ background and heritage, and how she has spoken about, and identified with, her race and ethnicity. We rate it Pants on Fire!
