Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) on Sunday repeatedly questioned Vice President Kamala Harris’ racial identity during an interview on ABC News, leading host George Stephanopoulos to chastise him for repeating Donald Trump’s “slur.”
Appearing on Sunday interview show ‘ABC This Week,’ Donalds continued to run interference for the former president, who has so far refused to back down after his controversial remarks at the National Association of Black Journalists conference last week.
Donalds told Stephanopoulos that Trump was only “responding to a question” and called the scandal a “phony controversy.”
