Democratic Sen. Laphonza Butler strongly condemned former President Donald Trump's recent false remarks regarding Vice President Kamala Harris' race, labeling them as 'an insult' and 'despicable.' Butler, a close ally of Harris and the only Black woman currently serving in the Senate, expressed her outrage at Trump's comments during a recent event.
Trump's inaccurate statements, made at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Chicago, suggested that Harris had only recently identified as Black. He claimed that she had made a sudden 'turn' in her racial identity, which Butler dismissed as a baseless and offensive attack.
