Trump insults Harris and Black journalist, recycles ‘Black jobs’ remark at NABJ convention

The 2024 Republican presidential nominee drew immediate outrage for the 30-minute Q&A with Black female journalists.

Former President Donald Trump drew swift and immediate outrage during a Wednesday interview with Black journalists at the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) Convention in Chicago.

The 2024 Republican presidential nominee prompted many gasps and grumbles during the panel conversation that lasted just over 30 minutes. The sit-down, moderated by ABC reporter Rachel Scott, Semafor reporter Kadia Goba and Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner, was expected to last an hour.


Trump, 78, spewed disparaging insults against his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as Scott of ABC, repeated his infamous “Black jobs” remarks and struggled to defend controversial comments made by his vice presidential pick, J. D. Vance.

Here are six highlights from the explosive panel event...

When asked by Scott if he agreed with Republicans that Harris is a “DEI hire,” Trump falsely claimed that the vice president and former U. S. senator “was always of Indian heritage” and was “only promoting Indian heritage.”

“I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black,” said Trump, who initially challenged Scott to define what DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) meant rather than answer the question directly. “Now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian, or is she Black?”

Scott rebutted that Harris “always identified as Black” and noted that she attended Howard University, a historically Black college.
