This is exactly what happened in #Trump’s 35-min interview w/ 3 #women #journalists at the #NABJ convention in Chicago on Wed. Clearly rattled by the audacity of #BlackWomen tossing him sharp questions, Trump let his facade crumble & slipped into the #racist, #misogynistic tropes of his native tongue.

“I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?” #Trump said of VP #Harris, who is #Black & #Indian American. “I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t. Because she was Indian all the way & then all of a sudden she made a turn & she went, she became a Black person. I think somebody should look into that.” This is false. Harris has always embraced her Blackness & even attended #HowardUniversity, a historically Black school [#HBCU].

The #journalists at the event did the country a service. Much of that work was done by #RachelScott of #ABCNews. Her first question was tough, factual & fair — a model of accountability #journalism — & deserves to be repeated: [see attached photo]

And for that genuine question, she was called "nasty" and vilified for not saying "hello" to him.

@Ralph058 @WendyMsGator

Yup. And there’s proof.
