Republicans Freak Out Over Trump’s New Race-Based Attack on Harris
Republican lawmakers were horrified by Donald Trump’s comments questioning Kamala Harris’ racial identity.
The GOP presidential nominee’s comments—in which he claimed not to know Harris “was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black”—were met with gasps at a gathering of the National Association of Black Journalists in Chicago.
Politico reported that “virtually every Republican” it contacted about Trump’s new attack line was “flat-out distraught by what they perceive as a self-inflicted wound not only for Trump, but for Republicans down the ballot.”
