During the Democratic presidential debate, Donald Trump Jr. shared a viral tweet that questions Sen. Kamala D. Harris’s (D-Calif.) ability to address issues of importance to black Americans because she is the daughter of a Jamaican immigrant.
The tweet — which some suspect is from a bot targeting black voters — read: “Kamala Harris is *not* an American Black. She is half Indian and half Jamaican. I’m so sick of people robbing American Blacks (like myself) of our history. It’s disgusting. Now using it for debate time at #DemDebate2? These are my people not her people. Freaking disgusting.”

Because she isn’t African-American on either side of the hyphen....
BTW, the author of this article, Eugene Scott, is not the TV preacher who demanded money from viewers and showed film of his horses and pretty girls. That Gene Scott passed away some years ago.
Why the hell is everyone so damn worried about skin color? Just pick someone competent and be done with it. Now I know that’s going to be extremely difficult for the democrats.
But...she IS a woman of color, which apparently is the greatest thing a person could ever hope to be or hope to accomplish. Right?
They didn’t think that Barack Obama was black enough and he took on the ballsy claim that “his family” was descended from slaves because his daughters have ancestors on his wife’s side of the family...
Well since slavery ended in 2008, techncially there are no “american” blacks. We stopped bringing them over when bammy came in.
Slavery didn’t end in 2008?
They’re all sure acting like it did though...
Hmm...
Her father did not look Jamaican
White women need not apply
not black enough....lolol
oh boy..this is going to get interesting
There is an Irish grandfather in there
Nice. Sets her up for 2024 if she can ‘do no harm’. Something tells me she’s in for herself.
Is she “magic” like Soetoro?
Is she “authentically black”?
Is she (or was she ever) down wid duh shtruggah?
She’s not so clean, not really articulate, not really good-lookin’ (especially with that hideous new facelift), but could be “storybook, man”!
How will she resolve Joe’s cozy relationships with segregationists, and Joe’s friendliness with Robert “Grand Kleagle” Byrd?
No, a handicapped lesbian muslim person of color would be even “greater”, so she still has a way to go.
get ready for her busting out her dance moves

Well, she did smoke pot while listening to Biggie and Tupac before either of them had ever recorded an album. So she must be magical!
“She is half Indian and half Jamaican.”
Hmm, doesn’t sound like a Natural Born Citizen. Sounds like it could be an issue Another ...ahem ... “fortitude” check for elected Republicans?
Will she pass the “sniff test”?
the hodge twins have an irish ancestor. they say that is why they are not black enough for people.
