Race & woman. That's all they talk about. No policy. She's pure fraudulence. An overreaching, overzealous corrupt prosecutor. Ask Daniel Larsen.

First of all. She is not black. It’s is racists to say that since you are going by her skin color!!!

🤣😆😂.. Now you're pushing the black Asian American ticket.. how about just an American 🤨

Terrible choice

Her skin folor is the first thing everyone points out. I thought skin color was not important. Seems the ONLY thing that’s important to democrats!

That's an impossibility! Why South Asian? 'Black' can be any geographic location on the globe! You can be black and be from South Asia. What bloodline is south Asian? Throw in the towel.

He cripp

WE ARE NOT VOTING FOR A 'lock them black folks up ass', prisonindustrialcomplex ass not prosecuting real crimes shoutout (stevenmnuchin1)‼️‼️‼️ If you vote for her, you ain't black.

Bull Stuff democrats !

She’s Indian and Jamaican do not put Black & her in the same sentence.

Harris consistently pulled not higher than 3rd or 4th place among blacks in the primary. There is a big difference between what blacks want from democrats than what democrats are offering.

Moderate hahahaha

OWE!

She is NOT moderate. Her current campaign suggests otherwise. How did you get moderate when she stated that she would give Congress 100 days to take care of the gun problem or she was going to use executive orders to do it. How is that even remotely moderate?

Kamala is the cunning fighter this country needs to fix the mess Trump and his cronies have made.

She is beautiful.

Kamala Harris’s mom is Asian Indian. Her dad Donald Harris is by his own account descended from one of the largest slave planters in Jamaica. In what sense then can she claim the African American experience of being descended from slaves and subject to segregation and Jim Crow?

Nice choice.

*person with a cervix. Fixed it for you

Thank you CNN biden campaign managers thank you for promotional post 👏

Isn't it amazing he just happened to pick the prettiest, lightest skinned black woman of the bunch?

Now imagine this tweet if she were a republican.

She’s a corrupt cop.

Let’s see: black ✅ south Asian ✅ American✅ woman✅ yes, yes you’ve used all available adjectives to describe Kamala 🤪

Someone said this is the campaign ad. Is that true?

Forgot ... and smoking Marijuana while incarcerating marijuana offenders ...

Spent her career locking up people for petty non violent offences. Biden just created a democrat extinction level event. Excellent choice 😂😎

And breaking up families. Heyooooo.

And breaking up black families with her fake prosecutions. Hell, her family owned slaves in Jamaica. Did they miss this

Way to editorialize by calling her “moderate”. Not!

a Race baiting Phony --- perfect for Fake News and the DNC

Moderate

Americans don’t want extreme leftist radical progressives. That is what Kamala is. Praising defunding the police all over California. We don’t want that

realDonaldTrump now to break your balls

She's not black tho

Whether d less than 20% Americans like it or not, do US is officially a matured multiracial country wt a very strong regard for balanced gender wt equal rights. President realDonaldTrump typically gets everyone boil over & d real color of d nation is out for all to see

Moderate? Rated the most liberal Senator. Try the truth for a change.

'moderate'is a pretty radical exaggeration

More like mocha than black.

Ah yes, partisan politics. If Twitter existed in 1860, Abraham Lincoln would have been condemned as well.

House Democrat warns about 'inaccurate' media polls: Trump voters 'fundamentally undercounted their bias' Democratic counters block conservatives!

You mean Jamaican/Asian-American. That's what HeelsUpHarris is...

Nice campaign commercial, ...I sure hope they paid you to promote them!

It's so important that she is black. Make her the first black VP. It's the only thing that matters. Is she black though?

psst her family owned slaves psst she's a cop psst she has the most annoying, whiny, nasally voice and she hates you psst MAGA

Ironic, the DNC would pick someone with a Slave Owning lineage and a further Right criminal justice record than Rudy Giuliani

Why is it that we have to be something and something. Why can’t we be American? Period.

I guess cnn and its clown cult is just going to erase Shirley Chisholm out of history.

I guess it is time to remind everyone that KamalaHarris was part of the Kavanaugh hoax. 2 accusers have already admitted they lied and Christine Blasey Ford's attorney admitted it was about abortion. She was also part of the JussieSmollettHoax This is going to be fun!!!

Breaking barriers? Sleeping your way up the ladder is now called breaking barriers. Interesting? Harris is a joke!

Spent years breaking barriers and who did horrible in the primaries. Good luck..

'Moderate' 😆.

Hopefully soon we can stop saying “the first” ANYTHING in our phrases - this is goal one...

They done put the remix on her..👀👀

I just knew it! All the very best to you guys. Lets get this ignorant man out it the Oval Office.

This is what can happen to America if Liberals win elections. Your entire data will go to china easily because Biden is very close to china communist party

And why I 💜 her! BadAss

Genuinely curious when we all stopped calling black people African American? I recall calling them “black” was insensitive so we all started saying African American. I’m confused.

Folks, in case you haven't noticed it's not bout them it's bot us. Welcome, aboard K. Harris, let's not forget, Folks, this is the big one, we need to ensure everyone knows & has a clear idea of each precinct's early, mail-in, absentee & locations & hours of their poll locations.

JAMAICAN not BLACK!!

Get out of my face with this bullshit.

Black and South Asian comment is a racist remark

JusticeForCannonHinnant Have you covered thiss?

Nice choice. It can attract lots of votes from the black society and women society. Many people want a woman to be their leader.

Harris is a national disgrace.

She’s a terrible choice

She is not fair. She held evidence that would free an innocent man just to keep her record looking good. Did drugs in college than has locked up thousands for drugs how is she fair votegold LetHerSpeak JoJorgensen2020

The women who also believed Joe Bidens accusers That Kamala Harris ?

JohnOGr78772593 As much as we disliked her, these were glorious moments for America. Let's roll, blue... 💔🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊🌊💪🙋‍♀️

Mean and spitefull

And come to find out they were all lies. And they knew it. So she is a fake

NEVER VOTE FOR Biden/Harris if you are Black as BOTH are responsible for TWO whole generations of Black men getting felony charges for misdemeanors and thus NEVER getting accepted to college or having decent job opportunity TAKE OFF YOUR BLINDERS YOU FOOLS KamalaHarrisIsNotBlack

She quite obviously makes Whitw Men Squirm...

Now report again on these facts.

Evil

JoeBiden had to read from a script when he told KamalaHarris she was his pick. Also had the phone upside down.

How is it 'Intense' if she has to stare at her notes the entire time. There is nothing 'Intense' about a person reading notes. Just because she hates the people she's talking to, doesn't make it intense. Most people just find it annoying.

Democrats: How can we put an extreme leftist to the office?1) Put a respected, centrist but senile man to the race 2) Message a lot that something can happen 3) Add the extreme leftist person as VP4) Declare the president unfit after the win

Idontcaer baiden2020

She’s a fing phony and she isn’t BLACK

And here is her job record:

A corporate wet dream for the now moderate Republican party that calls themselves Democrats and a nightmare for the 99% American people.

I’m old enough to remember Kamala believing Biden’s accuser Tara Reade

Intense stupidity

Badass nasty.

I loooove her - strong, quick, articulate - our girl rocks!!

cnn celebrating a woman who attempted to destroy the reputation of an innocent man brettcavanough and set a system of slave labor for those who bought and sold plants. Trump derangement syndrome is an amazing thing.

so when you need ads to sell your product maybe its not that good CNN your ads for kamala is really bad sorry to say, we all know her record as a prosecutor its terrible.

CannonHinnant WHERES THE STORY SHOULD BE FRONT PAGE ACROSS AMERICA.

Grande mulher! Ótima escolha.

The Democrat Party has come full circle, right on back to their Klan roots!! Slave owners have always run this party.

Remember that time she blocked DNA testing from freeing an innocent man, because her record meant more than justice? Trump says mean things, but has freed more innocent people than the person responsible for making sure 'Justice is served'. Liberal hypocrisy has become a sport.

She literally has 0 African American in her lmao. She’s not black..

She was written off pretty quick during campaign. Now she’s the second coming of Christ. Fohhhhhh

You want to talk about someone “who ain’t black...” I’ll show you Camel Harris Thank God for realDonaldTrump 2020

What a pointless headline.

What happened to her face?!

'Moderate'

We know that she broke Willie Brown's wife's barrier for sure!

I didn’t know she is a South Asian American?

If South Asian is your chosen metric for Harris’ qualifications you’ll need to correct “Black” to North American.

....And breaking up the black families as bad as Disastrous Democrat toxic policies. CNN forgot to mention that.

Change has come

Hey CNN you need to learn what the word moderate means, you fuck it up like you do when you label riots as protests. I guess it just doesn't fit your anti-American agenda.

Very successful prostitute.

Moderate CNN right on board with the DNC. Pssst.... that’s why no one trust you.

What a tag 'first Black and South Asian American woman'? America the typical.

CNN sucks.

South Asian not Black!

That moment when CNN fact check its self! Kamala is Indian and Jamaican not black!

“Moderate”? HAHAHA. Good one. 🥴

You mean building barriers?

She is really BLOWING them away.

“first Black and South Asian American woman” Here it comes America, if you don’t for her the crazy left will label you a racist and sexist. Well I’m not voting for those creeps. So call me what you will.

Black and south Asian American ,wtf isn’t she just American ?

If we are going to dilute all country of origins to a color. Wouldn’t she be the first yellow and black candidate? Or do we only do it when we can culturally appropriate a segment of the population?

She spent her career putting Black People in Jail for minor offences.

Wasn’t she sworn in as Indian in California?

Spent her carrier breaking laws 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Correction: Harris has spent her career breaking *truant kids doors down*

If KamalaHarris ilms so 'great' as i have learned watching CNN this evening, why did she get trounced in the Democratic primaries? Why couldn't she convince people to vote for her instead of a 75yr old, 40yr politician?

But she was Sworn in as An American Indian!! I mean you can’t make this Shit UP!!

Uncle Joe JoeBiden made a wise choice! Harris' platform, as a president candidate, was impressive. I plan to vote in the spirit of those who paid a HUGE price for my right to vote - Rosa Parks, Dr. King, John Lewis, James Reeb, Bayard Rustin, Freedom Riders; and ALL the REST!

Oh shit. Here it comes... break out the love fest. cnn busting a nut for Kamala

Nov 3rd, LET'S DO IT! BidenHarris My BIDEN/HARRIS video

You keep spelling Jamaican wrong! CorruptMedia FakeNewsCNN

cnn is a DNC PR firm

Talk about Kamala’s family owning slaves.

🗳🌊🌊🌊BidenHarris🍾💯🌊🌊🌊

Congratulations!!!!

So no talent Just skin color Got it!

Define black.

This article shows exactly where the modern Dem./progressive mindset is at. What you are, as in race, gender, ethnic origin. Is more important than who you are. Biden literally picked the worst possible candidate.

Ok. KamalaHarris JoeBiden

Jamaican is black now ?

Hoping for Rice but please make us proud. As a fellow trial lawyer , be cool and calculated and win!!!!!!!

Bwahaha haha

She is Indian and Jamaican.

JoeBiden you really brought a cop to a DefundThePolice party... or is she a NotableException ?

Token BLACK to pander for the black voter, when she nor Biden will do anything for blacks other than in slave them to goverment dependicies. Same as liberals have been doing for decades. Obama had 40 mill on food stamps, WHY? Control.... control the food, you control the mind.

Is that her real hair
