Trump's Divisive Remarks on Kamala Harris Draw Sharp Reactions

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump made racially insensitive comments about Kamala Harris, questioning her racial identity. Trump's remarks sparked immediate backlash from Harris, her campaign, and Democratic supporters who accused Trump of perpetuating divisiveness. Critics highlighted Trump’s history of racially charged attacks on political opponents.

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has come under fire for racially insensitive comments made about Kamala Harris, questioning whether she is 'Indian or Black.' Harris and her supporters quickly condemned the remarks as divisive and disrespectful.

Trump falsely claimed that Harris had only recently begun to emphasize her Black heritage, stating, '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.' At a National Association of Black Journalists event, Trump's comments were met with immediate criticism.

Harris, addressing a crowd at the Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority event, reiterated that Americans deserve a leader who tells the truth and doesn't respond with hostility. Her campaign communications director, Michael Tyler, criticized Trump's long-standing use of personal attacks and divisive rhetoric.
