The announcement that Kamala Harris will be Joe Biden’s running mate in his bid for the presidency has spurred mixed reactions.  They mainly focus around Harris’ history as a prosecutor and whether

to “discredit” Harris’ identity as a Black woman because of her biracial heritage.

Because they only want Americans colour is not important

Her mum is Indian, her dad is Jamaican. She was born in America. So she is American. Simple.

What exactly is there to not understand?

There's a whole lot Trump supporters don't understand.

Shes not

If she's Indian American, how is she not Jamaican American. Oh, wait, you don't want to mention her father, do you ?

People can't collectively believe binary things like left and right or this. U just want to say they did

These people think the Obamas and Clintons are lizard people with giant underground child sex slave dungeons. So yeah, I am not surprised.

That's because they are uneducated.

It’s mutually inclusive... the same way I am Peruvian and Scottish yet I am an American citizen. 🙄

Easy. Mother from India and father is black and from Jamaica

Wouldn't be much good with quantum physics.

Jamaica is not in Africa. Most people are well aware there was slavery in Jamaica too. Kamala should, her family were slave-owners. Odd you missed that minor point.

Most black’s ancestors come from Africa. However, most are mixed today. I have American Indian in me from the Choctaw Tribe. I can say I’m more American than most. I’m African American, Black American, and Indian American.

Are people really that dense?

Shameful ignorance and bigotry 😞

FakeNews EnemyOfThePeople They do.

Of course they can’t given Trump supporters inbreed by default! TrumpIsLosing

Repetitive smear piece again...not News its opinion And it's not true.

I think she's a chameleon. A Kamala chameleon who can change her color depending on the current political situation. She is not black btw.

Man yall don't get humor

They probably have trouble differentiating Indian Americans from Native Americans nevermind understanding the heritage of Kamala Harris.

Csitlyn Jenner, Stormy Daniels, Georgia Floyd, Kamala. Harris... - modern Idols.

They don't understand how Americans can be both black and white either--remember Obama's mother?

Im still confused how Trump can be both a C*nt & a W*nker

Not Indian American. Her mother was born in India. Her father was born in Jamaica.

Just tell them it’s the same way that momma is also auntie.😂😂

She’s a mutt? I have a dog that’s a mutt too

KGB Spy and Russian billionaire Oligarch, Alexander Lebedev owns the THE FEW CONTROL THE MANY

Or why we don’t fall off the earth if it’s not flat.

They also can’t add numbers or spell...your expecting way too much from racist idiots.

Trump supporters aren’t known to be too intelligent !!

trump supporters = brains libs = lames

It’s just complicated, trump supports don’t do complicated.

, you did not find any decent news to put on Twitter. This is all gossiping crap 💩

Kamala Harris' whiney voice is so gd annoying. Stacey Abrams has a much better voice. Democrats keep sucking.

BECAUSE THEY ARE IDIOTS

She technically isn’t any as her parents were not American citizens when they had her. One Jamaican other Indian

Or that Africans ended up in Jamaica.

it's not hard to understand, but are Trump supporters that much ignorant and stupid? 🇮🇹

Let me think .... cause she is not, black?!?!?!

Should’ve stopped at “Trump supporters don’t understand”.

Trump and his supporters couldn't understand Barack Obama was born in Hawaii. What's new?

Why you think they are trump supporters?

It's a white nationalist, racially biased mentality of ignorance for Trump supporters.

You seem to understand how supporters very well. Do you actually know anyone other than Democrats within your media circle?

They’re just saying that. Being stupid.

She was born in the United States right That makes her an American. I don't believe that they put race on a birth certificate So do I get a prize or a check for answering

realDonaldTrump supporters don't understand a lot of things

Well that’s funny, I’m personally confused as to how she overpoliced her constituents. But then, in the same breathe, they say she wants to get rid of police altogether. Those two things contradict one another.

They all believe in immaculate conceptions?

Didn't her ancestors have slaves?

Wait. Trump supporters can read or write or understand anything?

You can't be both

They don't even know that they are inside the basket of deplorables

They don’t understand that drinking bleach is bad for you, what do you expect!

That’s not true at all. Another lie from the radical left. You people are sick.

KGB Spy and Russian billionaire Oligarch, Alexander Lebedev owns the THE FEW CONTROL THE MANY

Trump supporters also have a hard time understanding empathy, sympathy, anything that is not about themselves, how seeds become popcorn, shoe laces and equality... all true facts...

Independent cant grasp how she can just be considered american by birth without highlighting race and heritage.

Trump supports barely know how to write a tweet... No news.

They can't understand because they read and write at the same 2nd grade level as their unqualified leader? Or they are racist and intolerant?

Wait...WHAT? Did LevinTV say that her heritage as Jamaican does not go back to slavery or Africa Where does he think the black people in Jamacia came from FFS...what do you call someone lower than a Basic TWAT🙄

Jamaican are Jamaican not African American duhhhhhh

Oh right..so they must be confused over Trump being both German-American and Scottish-American

Imagine Trump read my Twitter bio. 🤯😂

Her ethnicity is irrelevant other than she'll potentially attempt to manipulate the public by making false claims. Who really gives a damn unless she wants to whine about reparations. At that point, she is unacceptable as a candidate.

Is she just not ‘American’? Like Trump, her ancestors came to the US and, at some point, their offspring became Americans.

That’s because they’re idiots

That's ok. Trump haters don't understand how someone can be black/gay/hispanic/asian and still supports Trump.

😂 but apparently they can be both racist and Christian...

Well obviously, all Trump voters are thick.

Considering most of them don't understand how you can be anything other than white and claim to be American, that's not big surprise.

Trump supporter think the world is flat!!

What 'American' do Trump supporters call themselves?

Trump supporters don't understand a lot of things

Well... if you and your ancestors only procreate through incestous inbreeding, the notion of two different ethnicities having sex will be hard to fathom.

Very simple, Black Indian American.

And that is important because...

Deplorables don’t understand much about ethnicity and race. I could go on about other things, but I digress.

Interesting shift from 'African American' there 🤣 She's definitely sort of Black American but have fun trying to defend it.

Obsessing over colour and ethnicity is weird given the mounting pandemic, the imminent catastrophic impact of climate change and the enormous gulf between rich and poor!

Because they’re ill informed, xenophobic and fearful of anyone a shade darker than a seashell.

You have to remember that the IQ of most Trump supporters is extremely low.

She is not African American! Stop calling her that. And in any case, all this skin tone politics is extremely regressive.

What would you expect from a Trump supporter?

says you.

I don’t understand how Trump voters can be both RACIST and utterly STUPID! Oh! Wait a minute I can!

Or why their dad's dicks taste funny when their sisters are on their period. Go fig.

It blows their tiny minds. I am not surprised.

thats because trump supporters only have sex with there sisters

Trump supporters don't 'understand' period

Harris has a pro Pakistani stance on Kashmir. Not good for Indians and Hindus.

What is harder to understand is why she is the running mate of someone she called a rapist.

Hardly surprising. They weren't the sharpest tools in the shed anyway.

To Trump supporters if is not white it’s not human

Well it’s kind of like how Trump can be dumb and stupid at the same time.

And actually she is against India and against Blacks. Biden made a bad choice. He will get vote of only Ixlamic terrorists.

Trump supporters don't care about Kamala Harris being both Black American and Indian American

Theyll be interested to know that sex plays a big part in it

She’s less “black” than indian. Which is funny. She’s REALLY leaning into the racial thing

They like to keep it in the family

She is NOT Black American she is Jamaican

I'm not surprised I'm sure the cant understand left and right

Depends which narrative her background needs to fit

Well when a mummy and a daddy love eachother very much, and both are different races, the child becomes both those races

Because she,surprisingly had two parents.. Amazing

Trump supporters don’t understand. And that’s the end of sentence.

They can only see one color at a time!

Well they are a dumb bunch They can’t figure out that Trump lies every second sentence They can’t figure out that he is using them How do you figure they can understand something as simple as Kamala’s background Just out of reach of their intellect

Trump's supporters are ignorant people.

Nobody cares what her ethnicity is except Democrats

For a country that is in the main, full of immigrants, it is amazing how racist and xenophobic a lot of Americans are. In theory they should be one of the most tolerant and accepting nations in the world with their biological history and ancestors.

I don't understand why it matters. She's obviously a person of color who grew up in the USA and therefore faced prejudice.

Let’s be honest, Trump supporters don’t really understand that much at all.

The saddest thing is that her skin colour and ethnicity is where they are starting their attacks clearly racial “purity” is high on the agenda for realDonaldTrump supporters. Appalling. USA you really need to elect JoeBiden

That’s probably the least of their worries.

Propaganda!

The Independent is a bad parody of itself.

They don't understand much anyway.

In lieu of test results, and if reports of her heritage are accurate, we can extrapolate Harris’ admixture thusly: Tamil ~50% West African ~42.2 % European ~6.2% Native American ~1.6% How exactly is this complicated?

An indan had sex with a jamaican one or both were citizens or she was born here. Who cares, not hrd to figure it out, details arent needed

The racist in chief is already spreading the same lies as he did in 2015 / 2016. This campaign is going to be in the gutter from 45s team desperate to prevent him losing then being arrested.

Dhuuuuuuh? It's because they're deplorables. 🙄

'Trump supporters' lol

TBH they don't even understand where the sun goes at night

Whatever you do don’t give then DNA tests it will blow their minds. KamalaHarris

Don’t care either way. No bonus points awarded.

Oh they could say American mixed Race if they’re that confused.

By that reasoning Cubans are black. Pakistanis & Afghanis are Asian. Do they see it that way? The problem is the DNC & puppets like fakependent, use whatever term that suits them at that moment. A different day, they will change it to suit that situation.

Trump2020 sleepy biden

That's the educated trumpers for you

trump2020 traitor democrats

Trump supporters are not the sharpest tools in the box

Is that really the mentality of many Trump supporters? Help me out here.

Well they don't need to understand

no thats not it. They just cant stand dems and media playing racial and black american card. Even blacks are sick of this all...

Trump supporters cant understand anything except red baseball caps and rednecks.

A man needing an abortion. Countless genders. A man can be a woman, and a woman can be a man and both can be neither. Trust me ..... this isn’t the complicated part.

SniffAndBlow

A rude awakening in the making!

🥴

You can add as an Indian Cherokee 2 lads

It's kind of like how Trump can be a white supremacist, and also have orange skin.

Wut

Oh ffs

she's got a face that would sour milk

What abt her locking up many minorities during her professional career? Is it not ambiguous to claim a minority card & oppress the same group you belong to?

Trump supporters struggle. Evolution is taking longer for them.

Trump supporters don't understand. Anything. Full stop.

That's why they're his supporters, because they're as thick as him.

This should not be a surprise.

Let's face it there are lot of things trump supporters don't understand.

Yes... well. Trump supporters are a little lacking in ideas, intelligence and imagination

But whenever she is criticized for her record or ideas, the leftist media will call her 'black' only because that puts her in the Ultimate Victim category, and thus unassailable.

And these people are allowed to vote

Comes of people marrying outside of their own family I guess. Looking at some Trump supporters I can well imagine that this might be a novel concept.

She is also White American, some of her ancestors were White slave owners.

Correction; Trump supporters Don’t care about her race or ethnicity . Is her leftist record that we find disgusting ...

montoyamoment

? Yes we do

Trump supporters won’t like this playlist 😜

Juggling two balls is difficult for some Americans, that’s why they keep them in a bag !

Why not they can be both stupid and racist

That's because they haven't a brain cell between their ears.

Of course she's Black!

too complicated for the IQ they have

So the folk in USA need lessons on birds and bees and genetics lol.😎

Surprise surprise....dopes

You would have to be pretty dumb to support Trump, so that is no great surprise is it?

You can't win when you come from two worlds. It's bad enough to be an ABCD but when you are ABCB?D it is twice as bad.

She is Netanyahu candidate ...

Yes we do. She is mostly Asian American. Her mother, Shyamala Gopalan emigrated from Tamil Nadu, India in 1960. Her father, Donald Harris emigrated from British Jamaica in 1961. Biracial of Tamil and Afro-Jamaican descent, Kamala Harris identifies simply as 'American'.

Trump supporters are absolutely one hundred percent right! KH IS NOT BLACK..OK.SHE IS NOT BLACK! She may have Black roots(father). But that in and of itself doesn't make one BLACK. She is or MIX ORIGIN. And there's nothing wrong with PRESENTING YOURSELF AS WHO YOU ARE!

Of course Trump supporters don't understand. 😏

wolffe2020 I get so sick of these Trumpers who grasp onto anything they can, when Trump is definitely not fit to be President or anything else in my opinion. I wish they would all just shut up.

wolffe2020 Good grief. Hmm, let me see, my father was French and American Indian and my mother was from mostly a European background. Hence, I am mixed. A wonderful bottle of Heinz 57. That's how that works...

Aren't Indians the original settlers of America. So could she be an Indian in that sense

So who was Obama? African-American and American-American?

I don’t imagine that they’re unaware of biracial or multiracial people. Unlike in some other countries, being multiracial is really common in the US .

I think Trump supporters secretly practise incest and bestiality whilst appearing to be God-fearing, church-going, bible-belt Christians. They are actually first rate hypocrites who cheat on their wives, cheat the taxman and hate anyone who isn’t like them.

I can’t understand how anyone can be a Trump supporter. Period.

I think more Trump supporters cant understand why Biden would pick a running mate who only a few months ago called him a racist and a sex offender.

It seems fair to say that most Trump supporters don’t understand the concept of having two parents.

Blocked evidence to keep innocent man in jail. Left poor people in jail for profit.

That's just racist, you just made a stereotype there didn't you? You should be targeted for protests and cancel culture.

Ok let’s put it in MAGA terms for them.. Imagine you are white and your first cousin is black and you have a kid..

Just like Trump’s son is Russian-American or wherever she comes from

I think you mean African American rather than black American - she’s Caribbean/Indian

🤣🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

fleming77 We see Harris willing to play identity politics & trade ancestries whenever it suits her. Refuses to be listed as being of Indian ancestry, her Tamil mom “the truth I hold dearest of all,” Instead, invokes dad’s Black heritage despite not knowing each other since she was 7🤷🏼‍♀️

Highly doubt anyone, is ignorant enough to lack an ability to understand how an individual, can be biracial. Obama was biracial, white mom, black dad. Not exactly rocket science. IMHO

If a man and a woman like each other a lot......

She’s half black. She’s not an “African American.”

Trying to explain anything to trump fans is like taking to a wall. They don't care about facts just trumps lies . Wake up people and think. Use your head and think.

Trump doesnt understand much to be honest... i am not qure he can even read!!!

'Trump supporters don't understand' is all the headline you need.

says an awful lot about USs education system-

Why isn't she just an American ?

That says it all really. Trump supporters seem to be the intellectually challenged members of the USA 🇺🇸

Science says this is true. Science also says she's female and female only. No matter what she does to her body

well when a Jamaican man and an Indian woman love each other very much...

She’s Irish too, and a descendant of slave owners. It’s a funny old world...

And she’s descended from one of the West Indies’ biggest slavers.

No. African American not black American The Independent is a sht rag FakeNews

FakeNews They do.

Nuance is lost on them.

It's not that they don't understand, it's that Democrats can't decide which one to use! Black is the most popular just for diversity sake.

Stop calling her Indian origin for vote ,we indian want TulsiGabbard as candidate not kamala..

I am not surprised.

First Thing: Kamala Harris is making the case against TrumpJoe Biden’s running mate said president had left US and its global reputation ‘in tatters’. Plus, pop culture is due a reckoning about colourism That's how it starts. Media builds her up as the 'saviour'. Then if Trump wins, scumbag media foams at the mouth rabidly shrieking that she should have won. Conveniently forgetting Biden. Typical hypocritical rubbish. Trump is doing a bloody good job of that himself That implies Biden has been remiss in doing this which is of course true
