S uffice it to say, MAGA America is unhappy about how Tuesday night’s debate between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris turned out for their orangey-white nationalist messiah, who is overwhelmingly seen as the loser of the nearly two-hour-long political battle. They’re mad because the commander-in-easily-fact-checked-lies got fact-checked in real-time. They’re mad because Harris was calm, collected and prepared while Trump couldn’t find a coherent thought if it walked up to him and offered to let him grab it by the — well, you know. They’re mad because all of Trump’s racist, xenophobic and erroneously outlandish attacks on Harris fell flat while her calling him a “disgrace” became a trending headline.
Meanwhile, Candace Owens still wants to know if Harris is really Black — as if she’s not the last person on Earth who should be challenging anyone’s Blackness.
All the time…
Trump was asked to elaborate on the remarks he made unsolicited about Harris’ racial identity during his appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) last month, to which he responded: “Whatever she wants to be is fine with me. I read where she was not Black.”
For whatever reason, white conservatives and their Black friends keep harping on this non-issue as if they’re completely unaware of how thoroughly it backfired on Trump. Truthfully, his NABJ appearance went as miserably as his debate performance against Harris. But that doesn’t stop people like Owens from claiming “America” wants to know when Harris became Black when it’s really just a bunch of Trump-parroting white people who are stepping way out of their lanes.
But, again, there’s something extra comical about Owens even commenting on Harris’ racial identity.
I mean, come on y’all, we saw what happened when Owens got quizzed on her Blackness when she appeared on The Breakfast Club and didn’t know how to complete the expression, “God is good.”
Get Out!
Owens thinks Netflix and Uber Eats having Black categories is “segregation.” She denounced Juneteenth as “ soooo lame ” and declared that she “will be celebrating July 4th and July 4th only,” as if the two holidays that take place in two different months are the Bloods and Crips of holidays. Outside of maybe Jason Whitlock , I can’t think of another Black conservative who goes out of their way to be anti-Black the way Owens does .
What does Owens care about Harris’ racial identity when she so clearly has a problem with everything that identifies as Black?
Again, this whole thing about Harris hiding her Blackness is a fake issue. She attended an HBCU and pledged a Divine Nine sorority. Does that make her the epitome of Blackness? No. But it stands to reason that a person who is half Black and is trying to hide that part of their racial heritage would probably choose a different academic journey.
