The New York Post shared these details about Trump’s appearance at the NABJ Convention:
Former President Donald Trump said he “didn’t know” Vice President Kamala Harris was “black” until recently as he took the stage at the National Association for Black Journalists convention here Wednesday — prompting some outrage from the audience he’s trying to win over.
In an attempt to court more minority voters in his continuous campaign to expand the GOP base, Trump spoke to an animated attendance of hundreds, where he accused Harris of only recently leaning into half of her identity, asserting that she “became a black person” for political purposes.
The vice president’s mother is Indian while her father is black.
“I’ve known her a long time indirectly — not directly very much — and 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,” Trump said of Harris.
