I think the argument is Moreno that she didn't identify as black before, but when she figured it would give her votes, she decided to identify as one. That's the argument at least.

There's tons of news pieces where she says she is both, the majority over her career, but in conversation if she were asked if she is one or the other she tends to say 'yes' before specifying the biracial factor.
The problem I moreso see sparking the ill informed right is over how The News keeps tagging her as the race convenient for the headline, rather than anything Kamala herself is saying.
The problem otherwise is over a culturally different idea of race; One views it merely as ethnicity while the other one sees it like camps or teams, like being born into an army or something.

That's fair.
I can see where people like those who support Trump are coming from though.
I have friends who are Indian and have a very dark skin color. They're really from a different world than the traditionally black Americans. For one, they tend to earn as much as the Asian Americans. They're not really ghetto people, but 'stfu and study' people. So I could see how some people could see this as conveniently identifying with a culture that is not your own.
America is anyway weird with race. You can identify as whatever race you want.

Honestly I really don't want Kamala Harris as the president.
I don't want Trump either, but Kamala Harris is the worst pick of them all. This whole gender quota thing has reached the point where literally the president of the US is selected to appease the feminists. There are better ways to fix gender discrimination than sacrificing quality.
This season in US politics has been a total shitshow. It feels like the directors lost the plot.

Well damn, dude was shot at a second time in Florida it'd seem:
Law enforcement officials said during an afternoon press conference that the gunman was in some bushes near the property line of the golf course when Secret Service agents, who were clearing holes ahead of Trump, spotted a rifle barrel in the bushes.
Agents engaged the gunman and fired at least four rounds of ammunition around 1:30 p.m. (1730 GMT). The gunman then dropped his rifle, two backpacks and other items and fled in a black Nissan car. A witness, the sheriff said, saw the gunman and managed to take photos of his car and license plate.

They really want to get rid of him huh?
I wish leftists would just support Bitcoin instead of trying to use outdated past methods such as violently trying to create communism much to the vindication of regressive right wing reactionaries or lumpenproletariat.

Apparently the shooter is a big UKR supporter.
Here is a UKR video where you can see him for 2 seconds, skip to 01:48:
