Wrestling legend Hulk Hogan has joked about body slamming Vice-President Kamala Harris in front of a fired up crowd, and questioned her racial identity.

“Do you want me to drop the leg on Kamala?!” he shouts, referring to one of his iconic wrestling moves.

Hogan continued to make more comments about Ms Harris including one about her Indian heritage.

Kamala Harris is bi-racial - her mother was from India and her father is Jamaican.

“Is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian?” Hogan asked the crowd, before using an outdated and stereotypical greeting associated with Native American Indians.

The video stops after he could be heard saying he “was going to get heat for that one”.

    This is not politics.

    Everything is politics in one way or another. In this case, it is explicitly political. Because the washed up, union busting snitch, pro wrestler and D-list actor is giving a political speech at a political convention for a major political party for the nomination of a politician.

    Like the only way it could be more political is if he was running himself.
