Former President Donald Trump shot back at critics claiming he’s racist for suggesting Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t always identified as black with an old family photo featuring Vice President Kamala Harris dressed in traditional Indian garb.
“Thank you Kamala for the nice picture you sent from many years ago! Your warmth, friendship, and love of your Indian Heritage are very much appreciated,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Thursday morning.
The 45th president’s post highlighting Harris’ Indian upbringing followed a contentious interview with the National Association of Black Journalists in Chicago on Wednesday, where he was criticized for claiming Kamala had previously identified as Indian-American when it was politically expedient during her time in the US Senate, but is now attempting to claim she’s black.
“I’ve known her a long time, indirectly,” Trump said. “And she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I did not 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.”
Trump just told the world that KAMALA HARRIS ISN’T BLACK

“I respect either one,” he said, adding, “but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn and … she became a black person. … Somebody should look into that, too.”
The response came as ABC News Senior Congressional Correspondent Rachel Scott pressed Trump on whether he believed Harris was a DEI hire, with Scott arguing falsely that Kamala had “always identified as a black person.”
Just so we’re clear, Joe Biden himself lauded Kamala as his DEI hire just four months ago, stating,
“To me, the values of diversity, equality, inclusion are literally — and this is not kidding — the core strengths of America… That’s why I’m proud to have the most diverse administration in history that taps into the full talents of our country. And it starts at the top with the Vice President.”
Meanwhile, as the mainstream media struggles to recast Harris as black, social media did its thing and produced a mountain of evidence showing she has mainly identified as an Indian American.
Well look at this. A few years ago CNN did an entire segment on Kamala's Indian heritage. They even had an Indian woman do the reporting.😂 pic.twitter.com/537IeEfUAl

Sharing the same photo as Trump, Indian-American Dinesh D’Souza commented, “Here’s Kamala Harris in a family photo. She looks Asian Indian, like me. ‘But she IDENTIFIES as black!’ Wait! So if I now identify as black, I somehow become black?”

Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, himself of Indian heritage, also slammed Kamala for attempting to shift her race when it’s politically convenient.
“Many Indian-Americans in the US are indeed somewhat offended by the way Kamala has suddenly cast aside the Indian-American side of identity… She wore that when it was convenient. She’s wearing a different identity now,” Ramaswamy told Fox News.

Asked his thoughts on the situation, Trump running mate JD Vance said he thought it “hilarious” that the former president “pointed out the fundamental chameleon-like nature of Kamala Harris.”
“I frankly just think it’s hysterical how much the media is overreacting to it,” Vance said.
“The President doesn’t do scripted BS stuff. He actually goes into hostile audiences, he answers tough questions, he pushes back against them, but he actually answers them and how nice it is to have an American leader who’s not afraid to go into hostile places and actually answer some tough questions.”
“So what he said, I thought it was hysterical. I think he pointed out the fundamental chameleon-like nature of Kamala Harris,” he said. “She’s flip flopped on every issue. She’s fake. She’s phony. And I think our whole campaign is going to have a very fun time pointing that out. And it sounds like the president kicked us off in stride.”
