Donald Trump said he ‘didn’t know’ Vice President Kamala Harris was black and thought she was ‘Indian all the way.’
The former president said Harris ‘became a black person’ after having promoted her Indian heritage.
His comments came during a combative interview with members of the National Association of Black Journalists in Chicago.
Harris is the first black, female, and South-Asian-heritage vice president, but Trump suggested her embrace of black culture was phony.
The drama came with the very first question when he was asked about some of his past comments attacking black journalists and lawmakers, and his meeting with a white supremacist at Mar-a-Lago.
