Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Tuesday hurled a series of personal attacks at Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her “lazy” — a word long used to demean Black people in racist terms — and repeatedly questioning her intelligence and stamina.
At an event in Miami aimed at courting Latino voters, he said Harris was "lazy as hell" for not holding a campaign event. Trump's comments ignored that Harris spent her day in meetings in Washington and recording interviews with Telemundo and NBC. He referred to the first woman of color to lead a major party ticket as "slow" and having a "low IQ."
Later in the day during a rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, he called Harris a "stupid person" and went on to ask: "Does she drink? Is she on drugs?"
Tuesday marked the first day in more than two weeks that Harris had no public events scheduled after a run of more than 14 consecutive days of travel to political events in pivotal states, including a three-state run on Monday, starting in Pennsylvania, continuing to Michigan and ending in Wisconsin.
I swear this is starting to feel like a fucked up advent calender where every day he's going to say increasingly disturbed things culminating on Nov 5 when he finally drops the n bomb live
Are you kidding? With what he's already said and done? Anyone still on the Trump train isn't going to hop off for that. Most of them probably use it among themselves anyway. His supporters would eat that shit up.
She's campaigning her ass off, while he needs to cancel events every day. He thinks we're idiots who can't see reality right in front of us. Go take another nap trump. Fuck off.
Let's be real here. Calling her lazy isn't racist unless he said it's because she's black. That doesn't mean he isn't racist, but claiming things that aren't is only downplays the times that he says things that are much worse. People won't take the Democrat party seriously if they're always trying to make mountains out of molehills.
I used to do this (and still despised the a-hole huckster), but then 2016 happened and we got a peek inside that rotting organ he calls a brain. no longer.
Do you want to treat races as equal or not? Some black people are lazy and some white people are lazy. Imagine being so racist that you believe only white people can be lazy.
Let's be real here. Calling her lazy isn't racist unless he said it's because she's black
Given that she's not known to be lazy or anywhere close and he's publicly super racist all the time, Occam's Razor would conclude that that was indeed the only likely interpretation.
Getting hung up on the overwhelmingly likely not being explicitly proven like this doesn't make you sound reasonable and fair minded. It makes you sound like you're looking for excuses to explain away racism.
Like I said he says plenty of bad stuff. When you can't stay focused and you pick the dumbest things to get mad over not only do you end up acting just like Republicans but you end up pushing people towards them.
Seriously the dems are trying to say calling someone lazy is inherently racist, like thats racist in itself. Oh lazy automatically means black folk ain’t shit, like are you serious? This is beyond stupid, the folks in charge can’t drive this truck anymore cause they clearly checked out of reality.
