Juvenile Responds to CNN Panel Roasting Donald Trump’s Comments About Kamala Turning Black: ‘This Sent Me’

Earlier this week, Trump made headlines for saying he didn’t know Harris was both Black and Indian.

Trump appeared at the National Association of Black Journalists Convention and was asked by ABC’s Rachel Scott if he thought Harris, “Is only on the ticket because she’s a Black woman?”

“Well, I can say no, I think it’s maybe a little bit different,” he replied. “So, I’ve known her a long time indirectly, not directly… and she was always of Indian heritage and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black? … You know what, I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t.”

Harris’ campaign communications director Michael Tyler issued a statement, slamming Trump for questioning Harris’ racial identity.

“Trump lobbed personal attacks and insults at Black journalists the same way he did throughout his presidency—while he failed Black families and left the entire country digging out of the ditch he left us in,” Tyler said, per CBS News. “Donald Trump has already proven he cannot unite America, so he attempts to divide us.”

Juvenile is currently on his Back That Azz Up Tour, celebrating the 25th anniversary of his chart-topping song. The jaunt kicked off on July 7 in his New Orleans hometown and will end in the same city on Dec. 31.
