Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Tuesday hurled a series of personal attacks at Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her “lazy” — a word long used to demean Black people in racist terms — and repeatedly questioning her intelligence and stamina.

At an event in Miami aimed at courting Latino voters, he said Harris was “lazy as hell” for not holding a campaign event. Trump’s comments ignored that Harris spent her day in meetings in Washington and recording interviews with Telemundo and NBC. He referred to the first woman of color to lead a major party ticket as “slow” and having a “low IQ.”

Later in the day during a rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, he called Harris a “stupid person” and went on to ask: “Does she drink? Is she on drugs?”

Tuesday marked the first day in more than two weeks that Harris had no public events scheduled after a run of more than 14 consecutive days of travel to political events in pivotal states, including a three-state run on Monday, starting in Pennsylvania, continuing to Michigan and ending in Wisconsin.

    Let’s be real here. Calling her lazy isn’t racist unless he said it’s because she’s black.

    It is because she is black because he is a racist piece of shit. You can tell because of all the racist shit he says.

    Defending a racist piece of shit isn’t a good look btw.

      Do you want to treat races as equal or not? Some black people are lazy and some white people are lazy. Imagine being so racist that you believe only white people can be lazy.

        Imagine being so racist that you defend a racist who called a black woman doing a whirlwind campaign tour lazy while the racist constsntly cancels interviews including those in their own house. Then taking a logical stumble by infering that a common racist trope means the opposite of the racist trope can’t be possible, like a five year old trying to excuse the fact that they shit their pants means by saying that if they shit their pants that must mean every five year old shits their pants too.

        You don’t have to imagine it, but some readers might.

          Are you okay? Seriously it sounds like you’re just scared and it okay to be scared. If you shart your pants on accident it’s okay.

            It must be painful living a life alone because you drove everyone away with your toxic personality.
