He commended the NABJ for\u200d hosting Trump despite some internal\u2062 dissent, notably the resignation of co-chair Karen Attiah, who expressed frustration \u2063over not being consulted about his \u200binvitation.<\/p>\n<p>During the event, Trump made remarks\u2063 about Vice\u200d President Kamala Harris, \u200dquestioning her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/knowles-white-people-cant-be-any-less-white\/\" title=\"KNOWLES: White People Can\u2019t Be Any \u201cLess White\u201d\">racial identity<\/a> \u2063and implying she \u2063switched her \u200cidentity from Indian to Black. \u2063Tillman \u2064echoed Trump&#8217;s claims by \u200dpresenting evidence,\u2064 such as videos\u200c showing Biden swearing\u200c in Harris as the first Indian-American senator, labeling \u200bher a &#8220;chameleon.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tillman believes the Democratic Party&#8217;s tactics will \u2064not succeed \u2062in the 2024 election and argues that Harris will not replicate Barack Obama&#8217;s success.

Jimmy Lee Tillman expressed on the Martin Luther King Republicans&#8217; website that it seems the Democrat Political Industrial Complex (DPIC) is making significant efforts to prevent Black voters from leaving their party, as many are no longer convinced by their narrative. He described the NABJ event as an example of this situation and commended the organization for not letting a few upset journalists ruin what he considered a historic presidential visit. <\/p>\n<p>Just two days prior to Trump&#8217;s appearance, NABJ convention co-chair Karen Attiah resigned in protest over his invitation, stating she had not been consulted about it. During the event, Trump stirred controversy by suggesting that Vice President Kamala Harris had recently changed her primary racial identity from Indian to Black. He remarked that he was unaware of her identification as Black until a few years ago and questioned whether she identifies more with her Indian heritage or her current racial identity.<\/p>\n<p>Tillman supported Trump&#8217;s claims by referencing videos showing Joe Biden swearing in Harris as the first Indian-American senator, labeling her a &#8220;chameleon.&#8221; He asserted that tactics like fear-mongering and vote-shaming from Democrats would be ineffective in 2024 and noted that Harris would struggle to replicate Barack Obama&#8217;s success due to dissatisfaction within the Black community after eight years without tangible benefits.<\/p>\n<p>He criticized Harris&#8217;s image and presentation, claiming they do not resonate with voters who are aware of ongoing economic challenges such as high food prices and gas costs, along with issues related to illegal immigration affecting jobs and resources<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2318472,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Trump-on-Harris-race-claims.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[32174,32438,37068,37067],"class_list":["post-2318471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-black-voters","tag-kamala-harris","tag-race-chameleon","tag-trump-defense"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Trump-on-Harris-race-claims.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2318471"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318471\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2318472"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2318471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2318471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2318471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
