Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has joked about body slamming Vice-President Kamala Harris in front of a fired up crowd, and questioned her racial identity.
…
“Do you want me to drop the leg on Kamala?!” he shouts, referring to one of his iconic wrestling moves.
…
Hogan continued to make more comments about Ms Harris including one about her Indian heritage.
Kamala Harris is bi-racial - her mother was from India and her father is Jamaican.
“Is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian?” Hogan asked the crowd, before using an outdated and stereotypical greeting associated with Native American Indians.
The video stops after he could be heard saying he “was going to get heat for that one”.

As much as I want to agree with you, this guy was one of the key speakers at the RNC. He’s the embodiment of the Republican party’s political discourse.
Damn, man. Beggars can’t be choosers. How much content do you submit to keep this community active? Just down-vote and move on. No need to make it personal.
Amen!

See that’s just it, I’m not the one criticizing submitters.
Throwing peanuts from the peanut gallery is easy. Being the change you want to see isn’t. Start submitting to this community and let’s see how you fair, Mr. 1-month-old account.
Sometimes people need a taste of their own medicine.
Edit: Definitely struck a nerve. I wonder, does Lemmy have vote manipulation detection?
Only when mods and admins look at the post, so nothing automated.
I wish!
Everything is politics in one way or another. In this case, it is explicitly political. Because the washed up, union busting snitch, pro wrestler and D-list actor is giving a political speech at a political convention for a major political party for the nomination of a politician.
Like the only way it could be more political is if he was running himself.
