Trump Trolls Elizabeth Warren With Mock 2020 Campaign Poster


by Caleb Ecarma | Jan 3rd, 2019, 11:58 am 1890

President Donald Trump mocked Democratic Senator and likely 2020 candidate Elizabeth Warren in a tweet this morning, reposting a meme from the conservative site The Daily Wire that mocked the lawmaker as “1/2020th” Native American.




The attacks against Warren’s ethnicity have circulated in conservative circles for some time, with many mocking her for allegedly being less Native American than she claims to be. After months of Trump referring to her as “Pocahontas,” Warren finally released results from a DNA test that showed she had a distant ancestor who was Native American. The results also proved she is not Native American herself.

In October, Trump slammed Warren as a “total fraud” on Twitter in regards to her ethnicity.

I tend to believe my folks when they say something about my heritage. She corrected it, and moved on. The red testicle has ZERO room for making light about others family histories considering the big lie about the 'small 1 million dollar loan". Amongst other things.

"Families often tell their children what they are, where they came from, who their relatives are...people are not born knowing this"....Most people grow up believing what their folks tell them....kind of like how a store-front doctor/tenant tells a healthy young man that he has bone spurs"

The era she entered college was pre-internet... there were no DNA tests,.and even there had been they would have been too expensive to conduct.

For some minorities, the obvious identifiers were there, but for many they are not obvious, so family lore comes into play..
