Pocahontas shoulda let it go. This desperation to lay claim based on a fraction of a percent makes her look like an angry child while Trump laughs. Hahahaha. Jokes on PocaTinyPartofUs.

I guess that's what you have to do in the liberal arena.

Actually Trump was the one who should have kept his damn mouth shut. But no, he's the mocker in chief, so he can't help himself.

No, but she sure as hell heavily implied it:

Elizabeth Warren has pushed back hard on questions about a Harvard Crimson piece in 1996 that described her as Native American, saying she had no idea the school where she taught law was billing her that way and saying it never came up during her hiring a year earlier, which others have backed up.

But a 1997 Fordham Law Review piece described her as Harvard Law School's "first woman of color," based, according to the notes at the bottom of the story, on a "telephone interview with Michael Chmura, News Director, Harvard Law (Aug. 6, 1996)."
Which is what the left is going with. But they fail to mention:

But the Fordham piece takes the description of Warren by Harvard Law beyond the boundaries of the Massachusetts school. Warren had described herself as a minority on a law professors' listing for several years, ending in 1995. She has said she wanted to meet people like herself, but stopped when she realized that's not what the listing was for.
Which is the point. She claimed herself to be a "minority" for years. The only claim to any type of minority status was that she was Cherokee because her great grandparent had high cheekbones, and her father's family didn't want him to marry her mother because they said she was part Cherokee.

She said this, no one else made that up, she said it:

The left will cling to the claim that she never used it to get ahead, (and thus far has not provided any type of proof for that), but they will completely and totally ignore that she pushed the Cherokee heritage, and she labeled herself as a minority for years!

That is why she's being attacked - because she lied! She is not a minority, and has never been a minority.

No not whatever. Let's see one independent lab definitively conclude she has even one distant American Indian ancestor. There's no real evidence that she does, not that it would justify what she's been doing with her claim.

FLASHBACK: President Trump on Elizabeth Warren, 7/5/2018: "I will give you a million dollars to your favorite charity, paid for by Trump, if you take the test and it shows you're an Indian." https://t.co/WNdyvfgaYdpic.twitter.com/ToAd1qaQJl

In a series of tweets on Monday, Warren called on Trump to pay the $1 million to charity.

Of course the disgusting "LIAR IN CHIEF" is such a BRAINLESS-NO-IQ-DIMWIT, he doesn't even think about how all his public speeches are a record! I don't believe he could even come up with $1million,is why he is denying saying that, LOL,LOL,LOL!
Of course, being an indian would require at least 50% indian blood, and I don't think she has any evidence whatsoever of coming even close to that mandatory standards. Having put out a BBQ grill grease fire doesn't qualify one as a firefighter.

By any sane metric, being of 1/1024th native ancestry does not equal being an Indian. Rachel Dolezal is more black than Lizzie Warren is red. A marshmallow is more red than Lizzie Warren!

You'd think with Trump's daily lies he would be attacked too. But no, he is lauded by his supporters. The bigger the lie, the broader the acclaim. I don't know enough about what Warren did, but I sure as hell know what Trump does on a daily basis. The hypocrisy is staggering.
