George Stephanopoulos Throws Tantrum Over Kamala Harris’ Racial Identity

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos accused U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) of using a “slur” to describe Vice President Kamala Harris’ “racial identity and proceeded to throw a temper tantrum during Sunday’s edition of “This Week.”

The ABC host asked the Florida congressman for his thoughts on Trump’s appearance at a conference for black journalists earlier this week. Trump pointed out that Harris frequently leans on identity politics as a selling point and will tailor her message based on her audience. In particular, Trump noted that Harris will jump between her Indian and Jamaican heritage whenever convenient.

After Rep. Donalds attempted to discuss serious issues as opposed to Trump’s appearance at the conference, Stephanopoulos pressed the issue. “And you just repeated the slur again. If it doesn’t matter, why do you all keep questioning her identity? She’s always identified as a black woman. She is biracial. She has a Jamaican father and Indian mother. She’s always identified as both. Why are you questioning that?” a scowling Stephanopoulos asked.

“Well, George, first of all, this is something that’s actually a conversation throughout social media right now. There are a lot of people who are trying to figure this out. But again, that’s a side issue, not the main issue,” Donalds began to answer before he was cut off.

Stephanopoulos is upset because Donalds did not act like black people are supposed to act.

I am not convinced Kamala is the one who designated herself as 'Black'. The media started referring to her as "the first Black woman to ever ... XYZ", and Kamala just went with it. Her father was a slave owner. I doubt that her family embraced finding out she is a negro.

The strangest part is the media insistence that she is an "African American". Even if she gets away with claiming Black heritage, calling her African American is stretching the bounds of simple truth. Maybe, if we go back a dozen generations, someone in her father's extended lineage came from Africa. But again, it is stretching common sense.

Black Americans know this. They laugh every time she tries to speak with an American Black accent or says things like, "I'm out here on deez streets". Really? Which streets is you on? Kamala!
