It doesn’t negate the Atwateresque value, for campaign purposes, that Harris is herself part Indian. Might make it more valuable.
Also, imagine if GOPs had waged this seemingly orchestrated “weird” campaign against Obama.

Trump needs a pool of possible appointees. Last time he let Reince Priebus draw from the GOP establishment, which hated him.
