This is what happens when you're born into wealth and never have to work a day in your life.

Trump should have one of his undercover people set something up where someone in Warren's family is offered $500k or so for taking a DNA test...then have the results somehow leak out. Alternatively, he could offer say $1M to charity if Warren will back up her claim with a test.

The concern for Harvard is very touching. Bet they never reported anything inaccurately in their lives, right? No estimating a little on the low side on weight for a driver's license? No shaving a year or two off their age for a dating profile? Total, absolute, and utter consistency in everything they do and say. Wow. That level of perfection is hard to live up to. Bet they had their parents and grandparents, and their siblings for good measure, take lie detector tests before believing a word they said, too.

Just because you hate Elizabeth Warren, likely another woman hating women thing, doesn't mean she is nothing more than a daughter raised on the stories of her parents and grandparents.
You are wrong on two counts so three would make it a strike out.

But, I'd like to get back to the lack of 'respect' - y'know, trump's new word he read from the prompter? - that he holds for everyone who has the misfortune to cross him. What a complete and utter hypocrite. What a lying sack of... feces. What a POLITICIAN!

So meh, I don't respect Warren, but seriously, all these politicians stoop down to low level of tweeter war like some 12 year old kid. God saves this country
Exactly!^

Growing up, I knew I had some Native American blood in me. I also knew it wasn't very much. Affirmative Action was in its early stages when I applied for college. It never even occurred to me to mention that I had Indian blood. In fact, when I applied to the college I eventually attended, I left blank the box where it asked me my race. There were 2 choices that applied to me and I had to choose one of them---"white" or "Spanish American". I was both so I couldn't choose one, thus I left it blank. The college chose for me. They chose "Spanish American" --- it wasn't a lie.

Eventually I did have a DNA test. I'm 5% Native American --- that's 5% more than Fauxacahontas

It couldn't be because there was no such thing could it?

Without knowing the results of a DNA test, your statement is a lie.

After watching the Lone Ranger, the Warren kids bug their parents with questions about being Indian...the parents say "I think your great, great, great, great, great grandmother was Indian - now scram".
