"She just isn't black enough to be president" Trump hurt itself in its confusion.
Cherry on top would be recommending tanning lol.
Just finished watching that train wreck and it went exactly like I (we!?) thought it would!
It’s weird that Donald Trump can’t speak without being nasty. Donald Trump is weird in that mannerism.
So weird. Just a weird weird dude. And old.
Don't get me started on the small hands
He is the oldest convicted criminal to ever run for office!
And a convicted criminal.
He’s incapable of changing his tone or approach for situations and different audiences in any major way. He’s always Trump +/- 5% difference.
The only thing old racists hate more than minorities is multiethnic minorities. It confuses and angers them
They like think to fit into very simple basic boxes; Black/White, Male/Female, Christian/Pagan, Americans/Subhumans, Straight/—
Had to explain to someone yesterday that being gay isn't the same as being trans. He's one of them (I'll submit to the irony).
Multiracial people make ethnostates more complicated
She just turned black? Has he not been paying attention for the past 4 years? (Rhetorical question. We all know the answer to that is "no, of course he hasn't, because he's so fixated with himself!")
I'm sure her Jamaican dad would be amazed to hear that his daughter hasn't been black for almost all of her 59 years on this planet.
Almost all?
Well apparently she just turned black.
My wife and I were thinking about turning black. It's just so much paperwork.
I got a lawyer to file mine for me
Just like those prescription glasses that you leave in the sun but aren't all that effective in cars because the glass blocks the UV. We hate the non-working sunglasses folks. Many people are saying...
Just....turns black. I don't know why we'd think anyone's weird for saying that, seems totally normal. Who said weird?!
I said this in another thread, but "things happening/existing before you know about them" is something I'm working on with my child, not something a presidential candidate should struggle with.
Well, he is a 78 year-old child
It's strange that people would think such a weird, small-handed man-child could run anything let alone a country.
hateful, childish bullies are miserable people, and misery loves company
There's a joke involving peril sensitive sunglasses here somewhere.
The Joo Janta 200 Super-Chromatic Peril Sensitive Sunglasses have been designed to help people develop a relaxed attitude to danger. At the first hint of trouble they turn totally black and thus prevent you from seeing anything that might alarm you.

In the full quote he did say she turned black "a number of years ago", for context, but he's still full of shit.
that dude's got tiny hands
It is probably a Republican mindset that "race" is still a thing in the US. Who the f cares what race Kamela Harris is - besides "Human"
Remember how people were betting when he’d say something openly racist? Bets were September, turns out it was June!
It's July.
And only July for today. You ok qooqie?
Qooqie time travelled from the past to warn us about a grave threat in our past.... These Marvel movies keep getting worse since End Game.
Such an old weirdo. He is quite old and rather weird!
It's funny (sad funny, not haha funny) we can't really know if what he said was just an incoherent sentence due to his obvious dementia or a racist comment due to his rampant racism or a misogynist comment due to his unbridled misogyny
Trump truly is a whole package of shit
These MAGA weirdos are at it again.
Yup honestly they're quite old and rather weird

What a fucking moron. My god he represents his voters well.
It's racist that we continue to use racial identifiers even though race science was debunked as pseudoscience some time ago.
Edit: for those who don't know, here's more information:
Scientific racism, sometimes termed biological racism, is the pseudoscientific belief that the human species is divided into biologically distinct taxa called "races", and that empirical evidence exists to support or justify racial discrimination, racial inferiority, or racial superiority. Before the mid-20th century, scientific racism was accepted throughout the scientific community, but it is no longer considered scientific. The division of humankind into biologically separate groups, along with the assignment of particular physical and mental characteristics to these groups through constructing and applying corresponding explanatory models, is referred to as racialism, race realism, or race science by those who support these ideas. Modern scientific consensus rejects this view as being irreconcilable with modern genetic research.
Scientific racism misapplies, misconstrues, or distorts anthropology (notably physical anthropology), craniometry, evolutionary biology, and other disciplines or pseudo-disciplines through proposing anthropological typologies to classify human populations into physically discrete human races, some of which might be asserted to be superior or inferior to others. Scientific racism was common during the period from the 1600s to the end of World War II, and was particularly prominent in European and American academic writings from the mid-19th century through the early-20th century. Since the second half of the 20th century, scientific racism has been discredited and criticized as obsolete, yet has persistently been used to support or validate racist world-views based upon belief in the existence and significance of racial categories and a hierarchy of superior and inferior races.
Basically, "race" is a pseudoscientific concept that has been discredited. Race doesn't really exist. There is no Black race or White race. Those races were made up, constructed around arbitrary physical characteristics, without any basis in actual biological science.
Race doesn't really exist, but what does exist is ethnicity:
An ethnicity or ethnic group is a group of people who identify with each other on the basis of perceived shared attributes that distinguish them from other groups. Those attributes can include a common nation of origin, or common sets of ancestry, traditions, language, history, society, religion, or social treatment. The term ethnicity is often used interchangeably with the term nation, particularly in cases of ethnic nationalism.
Ethnicity may be construed as an inherited or societally imposed construct. Ethnic membership tends to be defined by a shared cultural heritage, ancestry, origin myth, history, homeland, language, dialect, religion, mythology, folklore, ritual, cuisine, dressing style, art, or physical appearance. Ethnic groups may share a narrow or broad spectrum of genetic ancestry, depending on group identification, with some groups having mixed genetic ancestry.
This is just a variant of the "I don't see race" argument. When they say black and we say racist, we're talking about a social construct, not pure biology. The cop and hiring manager still see people as black. Us refusing to use the word for this construct makes it harder - not easier - to address at a systemic level.
I would have thought it was a low bar to clear of not questioning if she is black, but here we are.
Anyone want to vote for any of racist Trumps?
Must be why he hasn’t been asking for her birth certificate.
I see it is back up to its old tricks again
Just like his heart, except that was too long ago to remember.
He said she identified as Indian?
