      Meanwhile Trump still hasn't provided his tax returns and is president...

        Yeah, and I remember that being a big deal. But, lile a pavlovian dog Warren produced the DNA for Trump.

Now, we have no official documentation, and we're a good number of generations removed, and I'm going to assume the clan itself keeps no records of every random person who found their way over to America and had several generations of descendants. And I'm sure there are thousands like me, who know from family stories some ancestry through some random group; for all we know the stories could be wrong, doesn't make it a crime to mention it; and it also doesn't mean we're on file somewhere.

          I mean, is this all stupid? Yes. There are more important things to focus on regarding Warren's actual stances on issues. And the McCarthy thing is 1000X more blatant. That doesn't mean we also sit by when someone's name is dragged through the mud.
          She dragged her own name into this...her little gotcha moment never proved what she said it did. Now it isnt just some lame nickname, now she looks like a fraud. So maybe you all and her should have just shut up and let it go. No offense. Her actions are what is causing her name to be dragged through the mud.

          And again, if Orrin Hatch took a test and got the same result you wouldnt mock him to high hell for then claiming to be Native? Sorry but I doubt that highly. I know I would, as would Jon Oliver, Trevor Noah, Bill Maher...you name it.

            She never made a tribe claim. And Trump has successfully turned it into that. And you've bought it. And Hatch could claim African American status and I wouldn't even give a ****.

              I saw her speak the other day...something is different about her. I have heard her a dozen times...this time she wasnt just her normal placating self. She was speaking as a leader. (Angie Craig, Tina Smith and Tim Walz also spoke) She was juiced up and I gotta say, I think she is gearing up for something bigger. And for the first time, I think she might actually be in the right place to do it.

                Hatch wouldn't take the bait because their side doesn't get politically out-maneuvered on everything like the dems have for the last 40 years or so.

                    I would support her and if she needs me to volunteer, I would.

                        She said she has some distant blood, that like a great-great-gma was part Cherokee. This pretty much places it that far back and says the same thing.

                          She proved exactly what she claimed.

                              Like I said, being technically correct is useless in politics. Largely because it's so easy to paint as being disingenuous.

                              Does anybody care that Cherokee McCarthy, wasn't actually Cherokee McCarthy himself, but instead it was his wife's brother that made the claims for a company McCarthy and his wife had no stake in? Of course not. Nobody cares. That's generally how politics work, especially in campaign season.

                                No I dont buy anything, dont lump me in with any of this crap. I dont care whether she claimed Tribe Status or not. You keep throwing it out there like you have Native Turrets or something. I dont care if she is Native or not. It doesnt matter and it never did. This wasnt a story before (it was a lame joke) and now it is and that isnt because of Trump, and it isnt because of the GOP it is because of her. She got sick of people mocking her and decided she would prove them all wrong. Except she didnt. People like you talked about the pride you have in your heritage and that is great, but that doesnt mean anything in the context of what actually happened. This isnt about pride, this was her trying to score some political points against Trump because he is a bully who makes fun of her. The problem is he doesnt care if you prove him wrong, because the truth doesnt matter. Whether she is Native or not is immaterial. Literally nothing has changed since last week except now she looks like a moron. She isnt any more Native today than she was a year ago and she certainly doesnt have any more pride in it than she did back at Harvard.

                                The only ones who got snowed here were you all that felt the need to rally to her defense. You all are wasting time and energy on something that doesnt matter taking your eyes off the stuff that does. That is your prerogative I guess but you look exactly like the Right paints you out to be. And so does she.

                                Keep pretending though, keep fighting. This is the battle worth wasting your time on. This is going to be the thing that turns the country around.
