Donald Trump is proving he’s racist and stupid with his latest post.
In a Truth Social post Thursday morning, Donald Trump appeared to suggest, again, that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris isn’t really Black, ramping up his identity-based attacks to the horror of those in his party who consider racism a losing electoral strategy.
Earlier in the week, many GOP strategists, including in the Trump camp, worried that attacks on Harris’s race and gender—which seemed all but inevitable considering Trump’s history of racism and misogyny—would pose a serious liability for the campaign. “We hope he doesn’t act like a crazy racist and sexist person, but we can’t control him,” a source close to the campaign told The Washington Post.
These hopes were quickly dashed in the course of Trump’s interview with the National Association of Black Journalists Wednesday afternoon, in which the candidate claimed that, for years, Vice President Kamala Harris “was Indian all the way, and then suddenly she made a turn and she became a Black person.”
No, he’s legitimately dumb. He knows how to play a crowd, and covers it up a bit by rambling unlike Biden, but he’s been observably senile since like 2018, look at how disconnected his speech gets when he goes off script and starts a thought off with something he half-remembered from the news, something grandma would send you on FB, and ends it with something that hasn’t been accurate since the 80s.
If you watch his CPAC speeches and stuff, it’s almost like there’s a conspiracy of silence around showing how bad it is. You just get wacky stories that aren’t too believable from dem-alligned media, and “everything’s fine, the 79 year old is the most stable genius ever” from conservative media.
The recent interview with the black journalists association missed the perfect opportunity to ask him to draw a clock.
He’s dumb, but about as dumb as a rat that figured out how to reach the cheese in the maze. He’s kind of bumbling around and took an unintentionally Socratic approach towards reaching what he wanted. There’s some rationality to all of it
If they already like him, sure. He lost the ability to be entertaining to anyone else a long time ago.
