Former Donald Trump Aide Raises Questions About His Ancestry Claims
Published Aug 01, 2024
Former Trump aide Omarosa Manigault Newman raised questions about claims the former president has made about his ancestry after Donald Trump suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris had only recently begun identifying as Black.
During a Wednesday appearance on CNN, Newman recalled that Trump identified as Swedish in his bestseller, The Art of the Deal, despite being of German and Scottish ancestry. Newman said that Trump didn't want to acknowledge his roots because he thought being Swedish "would play better to those who were patronizing his businesses."
Arguing that Trump would identify as Swedish, German and Irish "whenever it's convenient," Newman said: "Donald doesn't know the difference between ancestry and race. He doesn't want to know the differences, nor does he understand the nuances of how people self-identify."
