“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 while addressing the group’s annual convention.

There’s some other good stuff in there but that’s the one that stood out to me as new.

“Now” she wants to be black. As if her father wasn’t Jamaican.

AFKBRBChocolate ,

I’ve heard people seriously saying that Jamaicans aren’t black. Like what the hell?

Apparently they’ve never seen a picture of Bob Marley.

obviouspornalt ,

As if she didn’t pledge AKA at Howard.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

TIL. I didn’t even know she went to Howard. Honestly, I should read more about her on a personal level.

Her family is pretty interesting as well, definitely worth reading about them too.

“I think it’s disgraceful that I came here in good spirit. I love the Black population of this country, I’ve done so much for the Black population of this country,” Trump said.

He’s a parody of himself. If there wasn’t a real threat behind his existence, I’d happily do nothing but laugh at the ridiculousness of his claims.

I like how he said there were “black jobs.” I guarantee you that before someone asked him what black jobs were, he was thinking of things like doorman, shoe-shine boy, bellhop, maid…

@FuglyDuck@lemmy.world avatar

Sorry. That’s politically incorrect. The appropriate term for the modern age is “convicted prisoner”

Does that mean Trump is half Black?

EleventhHour ,
@EleventhHour@lemmy.world avatar

Funny you say that.

I was in a nasty argument with my mom last night about her use of the racist slur “illegals”. I told her that people can’t be illegal. She replied that shes not a racist and that they’re illegal because they broke the law. I shot back, “oh, so, since you got that speeding ticket, that makes you an illegal?” “No! They committed a felony!” So I said, “oh, so Trump is a 34 times illegal then?”

She said, “that’s different!”

“Why? Because he’s white? See, that’s why you’re racist.”

She screamed, “fuck you!” and hung up the phone.

lolrightythen ,

Sorry, yo. Good job on keeping it real

She texted me later, saying I was following a “Marxist script”. I texted back, “oh, yeah? What script did Marx write that said brown people were ‘illegal’, but white people weren’t? Was it in the letter to Lincoln praising him for freeing the slaves, or in Das Kapital? Because I must have missed it. Why don’t you send me a copy of where you read that.”

She blocked me.

maccentric ,

I can’t talk politics reason with my folks either.

nulluser ,

Ooof. I’m so sorry. I’m so sick of what the political discourse in this country has become, and what it’s doing to people.

Imagine the delicious irony if one of his ancestors was black.

Being falsely convicted of a crime in central park…

NJSpradlin ,

To acknowledge your comment, to Trump being black in NYC meant that you were guilty.

lolrightythen ,

Are you referring to the good ole days? Back when Bernie was getting the shaft and it was impossible for Trump to win office?

I doubt that I’d have believed the outcome.

“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 while addressing the group’s annual convention.

What an utter waste of DNA. And that was only the start of all the racist shit he said.

SeaJ OP ,

I’m reminded of Jon Stewart the other day:

Two races in one person‽ If these people ever saw a Pizza Hut-Taco Bell, they’d lose their minds!

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Das Racist already covered this issue. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIt2CdbBo_w

jiberish ,

Thank you. I watched this two times and now I have a better understanding of the combination pizza hut and taco bell.

danc4498 ,

Just a spaghetti western.

ayyy ,

Found the 30-something Bay Area kid!

thefartographer ,

I don’t know, is Trump a flaming sack of shit or a racist liar?

😱 Something can be two things at the same time??? Like a billionaire and a fraud??? Or a candidate and a felon???

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

A thought:

If Trump thinks that Kamala Harris should claim she’s Indian because she has an Indian mother, then Barack Obama should claim he’s white for the same reason.

Too bad no one in the press will bring that up to him.

thefartographer ,

I never considered that!

By that same logic, I have been rumored to have slept with all of my friends from high school and every gamer with whom I’ve interacted online

TexasDrunk ,

I shoulda gone to your high school, apparently.

catloaf ,

I doubt he’s a billionaire.

casmael ,

I guarantee he is worth at least eight pounds!

solsangraal ,

he can’t do anything without fucking it up

Translation:

“Don’t bother going out to vote for her, black people, she’s not actually black.”

If she wins, black Americans will have saved our asses AGAIN.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Which is interesting considering the criticism they gave Biden for the “you ain’t black” comment four years ago.

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

Well-deserved criticism. The sentiment of “You’re voting against your best interests” was correct, but the phrasing was terrible.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Regardless, what Trump is saying is hardly different.

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

I think there is a difference, but I’ve seen your arguments with people on here and know I’m far outmatched! I’m gonna be like Trump debating Kamala and chicken out.

NekoRogue ,

This also feels like it’s implying some transphobic stuff, while also trying to paint the dems as mentally ill. “They don’t know what gender they are, now I guess they don’t know what race they are either!”

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I think you give that moron way too much credit. I think he honestly believes telling black people that Kamala isn’t black will work.

SeaJ OP ,

Not exactly a great strategy to win over black voters…

snooggums ,
@snooggums@midwest.social avatar

The man has zero strategy beyond spewing bullshit and seeing what sticks.

Lemminary ,

I can’t believe there are Black and Latinos voting for this orange turd. And some of them are my ignorant immigrant family. Like, hello??

AFKBRBChocolate ,

Ignorant racists with a poor understanding of government and history come in all colors.

TexasDrunk ,

Latinos, especially older ones that escaped authoritarian regimes that pretend to be communist, I get. They are terrified of communists and socialists, which is how the Republicans paint Democrats. It’s almost like triggering PTSD for some of those folks.

Lemminary ,

Yeah, and I wish that were it! Honestly. I totally get it, too. But in our case, my die-hard MAGAt aunt and her son both crossed the border illegally. They’re not old or uneducated. Our government has never been authoritarian or communist during her lifetime. Like, she even has another gay son, ffs. I don’t get it. lol

samus12345 ,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

He’s not hoping to win them over, but to discourage them from voting at all.
