Kamala Harris responds to Trump’s shocking claim he ‘didn’t know’ she was black as she calls on historic African-American sorority to ‘fight for our future’

Kamala Harris has responded to Donald Trump’s rant on Wednesday in which he claimed she “accidentally turned black” a few years ago.

Harris took the stage at the 60th International Biennial Boulé of the Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. in Houston and delivered a speech during an interview that took place just hours earlier in which Trump insisted that “she suddenly took a turn.”

He made his comments at a gathering of black journalists in Chicago, where an interviewer asked him whether he agreed with the Republican sentiment that his rival was a “DEI hire.”

When he asked the journalist to “define DEI,” he then questioned Harris’s race.

The vice president, in turn, said that “the American people deserve better,” in a speech in which he also urged the African-American student body to “fight” because “the stakes are so high.”

“This afternoon, Donald Trump spoke at the annual meeting of the National Association of Black Journalists,” Harris said during her speech.

‘And it was the same old story again: division and lack of respect.

Let me put it this way: The American people deserve better.

“A leader who tells the truth,” she continued. “Who doesn’t react with hostility and anger when confronted with the facts. We deserve a leader who understands that our differences do not divide us.

“They are an essential source of our strength,” she added.

She appeared not to want to get involved in the debate that has arisen since the interview, but she chose not to directly quote the interview or refer to comments the conservative had made earlier that day.

Instead, she continues to speak negatively about her rival and his long-awaited presidential term, portraying him as a failure that should be forgotten.

The fraternity she spoke to is a member of the Divine Nine, a group of prominent black fraternities who rushed to vote on Harris’ behalf.

Harris thanked them for getting her and Biden elected, and suggested they had the authority to do so again in November.

“I believe in the promise of America. And aren’t many of us empirically proven to have the promise of America,” said Harris, who is a member of another Divine Nine sorority.

“More service leads to more progress,” she continued, before listing some of the student association’s historic achievements.

“You helped elect Joe Biden as president of the United States and me as the first female vice president of the United States.”

“Our country needs you,” she continued.

She promised to take on the pharmaceutical industry, landowners, big banks and big corporations, and to stand up for the middle class. She defiantly declared: ‘We are not going back.’

Harris also spoke about the so-called “promise of America,” which she said is “greater service and greater progress.”

She discussed the current cost of living crisis and concepts like equal pay for women, before briefly addressing the elephant in the room: Trump’s controversial comments.

While vowing to take on big pharma, landlords, big banks and corporations to defend the middle class, Harris at one point defiantly declared, “We’re not going back,” referring to another Trump term

It started when ABC’s Rachel Scott, sitting across from the Republican, said many people felt it was inappropriate for him to be in Chicago, given his past comments about people of color, including Indian-American Nikki Haley.

“First of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such an awful manner before,” Trump told Scott, calling the journalist “mean” and “hostile” in an unintentional ode to his 2016 campaign.

“You don’t even say hello, how are you?” Trump continued, before criticizing ABC as a “fake news network.”

“I came here with a good feeling. I love the black people of this country,” he continued.

“I think it’s a very rude introduction. I don’t know exactly why you would do something like that,” he said.

Then he made his controversial comments about Harris, after he was also asked whether he thought it was appropriate to call her a “DEI hire,” as several Republicans had already done.
