Question For The Day – Pick A Side Already

What, Me Racist?

August 28, 2024

You know, it’s just possible that Droopy J. Trump had a point. (Just kidding, that could never happen, it’s just a vehicle to set up a mediocre joke.)

You might recall that during Trump’s unmitigated disaster at the National Association of Black Journalists conference in Chicago, ABC News’ Rachel Scott asked the self-proclaimed “least racist person anywhere in the world” (yes, he really said this)* the first question: “Do you believe that Vice President Kamala Harris is only on the ticket Because she is a Black woman?”

Trump’s now infamous and horrifyingly ignorant and racist response concluded with, “So I don't know, is she Indian, or is she Black?”

Sorry, we couldn’t resist giving this another airing

Somehow Trump neglected to include yet another minority of which Harris is a member. And that, my friends is why we here at Paying Attention™ get paid the big bucks.** So here it is, without any further ado…

Today’s Question For The Day:

So which is it? Is Kamala Harris a Black, an Indian or a woman and when did she decide to be whichever one she is or claims to be? And exactly whatthefuck is Donald Trump and when if ever is he planning on becoming a man?

*Full disclosure: Trump and his father were sued by the Justice Department of housing discrimination in rental properties in New York in 1973. As became commonplace, the Trumps settled, avoiding any admission of guilt. When confronted with this inconvenient truth by Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election, Donald lovingly threw his father under the bus. Spoiler Alert: they were not discriminating against White people.

**For the record, we have gotten exactly zero bucks up to this point. Did we mention that we’re really rich? No, we did not. Because we are not. It is only out of badly misplaced pride that we are not constantly asking for money with which to run this slipshod operation.

This has been your Paying Attention™ Question For The Day.
