Hulk Hogan proves that Trumpworld can't resist attacking Kamala Harris' racial identity

One of former President Donald Trump's lines of attack against Vice President Kamala Harris' racial identity has been given a fresh lease on life by his GOP surrogate Hulk Hogan.

The WWE Hall of Famer was seen making a racist joke, commenting on Harris' Indian heritage, as well as asking if she was a "chameleon," during a promotional event for his new beer on Monday night.

He also offered to "body slam" Harris, to chants of "yeah!" from the crowd.

'You want me to drop the leg on Kamala?'

Excerpts from Hogan's Monday night appearance included:

"You wanna get crazy?" Hogan asked the crowd, evincing a cheer after each question.

"You want me to throw more beers out? You want me to body slam somebody? You want me to body slam Kamala Harris?

"I said — do you want me to body slam Kamala Harris? You want me to drop the leg on Kamala?" he continued, referring to one of his signature wrestling moves.

He then moved on to Harris' racial identity.

"Is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian? OK, I like it," he said, before raising his hand in a gesture that is stereotypically understood as a Native American greeting. "How," he said, to laughter from the crowd.
