Some of us wonder about the rest of her DNA

How much was black? Does dhe have a black DNA component?

Perhaps she was barking up the wrong tree all along

Can’t rightly say it’s folly when identity politics secured a prestigious sinecure for her at Harvard that she would otherwise not have gotten. That platform has allowed her to amass millions from connections that she would otherwise not have had, given her entre into circles from which she would otherwise have been debarred, and furnished her with a political megaphone that she otherwise would not have had. Identity politics been “berry, berry goood” to her. When others of kindred ethics see that of course they want in on the scam too.

Wouldn’t a single full-blooded ggg grandparent be one of 256 ggg grandparents? That would be about .4%, much less than the perfesser’s fake claim that she might be as much as 1/64th (1.6%).

What is it with New England? Massachusetts sends the phony Indian Warren to the US Senate. Connecticut sends the stolen valor, phony Vietnam “veteran” Blumenthal to the Senate. The voters in those states knew they were phonies when they elected them. America seems to be rotting where it began.

Warren just showed the absurdity of racial and sexual identity politics that are the hallmark of Democrats. Remember when some Blacks didn’t think Obama was Black enough because he was directly African and not part of “authentic” Black slave roots. The recent female sporting events won by biological males who identify as female and the ludicrous and baffling gender identities that change almost daily have similarly become a laughing stock. One would have to be a mindless liberal or total fool to accept the bizarre race and sexual identity world that is the Democrat party. The Democrats are in meltdown.

Problem is, that the crazies in her state will re-elect her to the Senate, now that’s the sad and sick part.

He owes her nothing. Anyone of us has a mixture of ethnic groups in their background.. She will look petty and small if she asks for a dime.

Although if the amount is recalculated to take into account the percentage of her Native American Heritage, and Trump donates it to a charity... Perhaps a Native American charity? He will look gracious. But not one more penny Mr. President

Trump didn’t make the offer that if she has one drop of Native American blood from 6 generations ago - He said if a DNA test proved she was “Indian”. The test didn’t come close to proving she was Indian. It proved just the opposite. Those of us who have not, and could not, benefit from Affirmative Action have more Indian blood than she does. (Not to mention that her drop of blood was not even from Native American Indians)

Right. Trump was not framing the issue as whether she had any Indian ancestry at all, but rather whether she was of "Native American" heritage as she indicated on applications she had submitted in her college years.

Amazing how Massachusetts has so many universities and colleges yet the residents are so ignorant.

Thanks; The Wall Street Journal can sing for Trump to pay up on a bet he WON. Why do they even bother to go there?? No other problems in the world?

The Cherokee Nation rejects her. $976 would be better spent elsewhere.

The media is misrepresenting the $1000000 bet. He said it it’s a hypothetical. He said that when he was in the debate with Warren if it came down to that then that was what he would do make the million dollar bet. But you notice how the media slices out that part
