Former pro wrestler Hulk Hogan has a history of spewing discriminatory and racist rhetoric about Black people. So it’s not surprising that Vice President Kamala Harris is the target of yet another offensive tirade from Hogan.
On Tuesday evening, TMZ obtained a video of the controversial wrestling figure talking in front of a raucous crowd at a promotional event for his new beer company. He’s heard saying, “Do you want me to put 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?”
He continues, “Do you want me to drop the leg on Kamala? Is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian? Okay, I like it. How? I’m gonna heat for that one brother. That was not me that was the bears talking?”
Boy, please.
On top of threatening to assault a woman who’s running to be President of the United States, he also threw an outdated stereotypical and racist greeting associated with Native Americans.
Not to mention, he and others continue to question the ethnic background of Harris. It’s not that hard to understand: Harris is a Black woman who has a Jamaican father and an Indian mother. All the racist jokes questioning her nationality are getting old.
Just add this clip to the long list of Hogan being a discriminatory public figure who rarely faces real consequences for his racist actions.
Nearly a decade ago in 2015, a tape leaked of Hogan going on a racist tirade after he learned that his daughter Brooke was dating a Black man.
On said tape, he’s heard saying, “I don’t know if Brooke was f***ing the Black guy’s son. I mean, I don’t have double standards. I mean, I am a racist, to a point, f***ing n*****s. But then when it comes to nice people and shit, and whatever.”
