Harris says Trump claims about race ‘same old show’ of divisiveness, disrespect

Donald Trump said Kamala Harris, the first black woman and Asian American to serve as vice president, had in the past promoted only her Indian heritage

Vice President Kamala Harris said on Wednesday that former president Donald Trump’s false assertions about her race were the “same old show” as she emphasised the need for black women to organise for his defeat this November.

Addressing the Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc — one of “Divine Nine” historically black fraternities and sororities — in Houston, Harris told the crowd: “When I look out at everyone here, I see family.”
