She Never Called Biden Racist" Watch Fox News Fact Check Trump Statement on Kamala Harris

From the article:

While there were many candidates to become Joe Biden’s running mate, Kamala Harris was long seen as a front-runner. The Trump campaign had plenty of time to come up with a well-thought out statement about the pick.

Believe it or not, that’s not what happened. Following the announcement of the selection, the campaign released a Trumpian missive through adviser Katrina Pierson.

The statement painted Harris as a “phony” and declared, “Not long ago, Kamala Harris called Joe Biden a racist and asked for an apology she never recieved.”

For Trump voters, this does not matter to their narrative. Most of them have no idea what facts are, or what the truth is.

At best, they will say that he misspoke. Never that he lies constantly.

Booker and Harris had every god given right to have that conversation. And Biden did well addressing it and it hurt him not. But, his supporters too Harris down unforgivably.
