Identity politics and cultural appropriation IS genetic McCarthyism! You can’t have it both ways, dumbass.

What is fascinating about fake news stories is how they follow a pattern.

Say immigration. Take a fact and then create an emotional analogy that while not accurate is so emotionally overpowering that it produces the desired anti-Trump message. For example separating illegal immigrants applying for asylum from their children is the equivalent of separating mothers from their children at Nazi death camps.

In this case, a Republican calling into question the racism of a Democrat must be shouted down with the image of rising McCarthyism tied to some science fiction concern about forced DNA testing.

So why can only Democrats play the race card?

It’s not about DNA, it’s not about ancestry. It’s about LYING for personal gain.

Genetic McCarthyism

Give the Left credit for its creativity in the destruction of the language.

Well, Daily Beast guys, you all need to watch one of those 1950s noir movies in which, when the bad guy is disgraced will be humiliated publicly, he goes down the dark hallway with a friend, to a black room. The friend goes in, turns on the light. Together, they find a simple desk and chair and nothing else. The guy goes in, sits and says a simple like like. “I’ll see you after.” The friend closes the door, and the disgraced guy pulls open the top left hand draw—it’s always the top left-hand drawer. He reaches in a pulls out a revolver. We cut to the friend in the hallway. Within a few moments, we hear a shot and the sound of a thud from the room. We pull back and THE END is superimposed. That’s all that’s left for you guys.

Democrats lie, no big deal. Republicans call them out, it’s hate. Business as usual. The problem is most Republicans still play by those rules. Trump doesn’t.

Donald Trump’s DNA Attack on Elizabeth Warren is the Beginning of Genetic McCarthyism

Bull Feathers! It is making fun of two things:

1) She LIED to get ahead.
2) That lying about one's ancestry is a way to get ahead.

Trump and the rest of us are criticizing the LYING and RACISM of the Left, and no amount of fantasy projection is going to change that.

Doesn't the daily beast care about native american children- the real ones??

Would the daily beast care that a white person could have potentially pretended to be a native american and appropriated the benefits meant for a native american child??

Don't the democrats-progressives-liberals-socialists care to find the truth about whether real native americans were conned out of benefits, by a privileged white democrat senator?

Either Warren knew that she had no American Indian ancestry, or she knew that she did not know. If the latter, she had an ethical obligation to verify her claimed ancestry before using it to greatly increase her chances of being hired by a string of universities, including Harvard.

We know that she did not verify her ancestry by using DNA, public records, tribal records, or using any other credible resources. Had she done so, she would have made that proof public.

So, we know that she lied. She claimed an ancestry that she had not verified. Her lie paid off, probably beyond her dreams. It must have earned her millions of dollars.

A future DNA test cannot change any of the above.

Nope, just calling only her out on her false claim.

I plan to point out to the next Liberal I encounter who makes a disparaging remark about Donald Trump that if he was a Democrat, with a growing economy, peace negotiations on the Korean Peninsula, and tariffs in place to protect American workers, all his past moral indiscretions and bombastic rhetoric, and take-no-prisoners attitude toward opponents, would make them giddy with joy. They'd be insufferable (not that they're sufferable now) in defending him, since unlike with Obama they wouldn't have to fabricate facts and reflexively play the Race Card.

If they're capable of imagining such a scenario there's a chance, albeit tiny, of a shift in their attitude. Not holding my breath on it, but it's about the only way I think I can possibly make a dent while remaining civil with them myself. Then, if they continue to rant and get in my face, the uncivil consequences will be on their heads.

This is wild-ass hysteria posing a journalism. There should be a warning label that it was written by a psychopath.

No, it’s just another example of Alinskyism.

If she had recent American Indian ancestry it would show up, but she is claiming Cherokee ancestry way back. When you go back several generations you have some ancestors from whom you received no DNA at all.

That said, she's lying about the Cherokee ancestry. But Pocahontas was a Powhatan Indian, and Warren isn't claiming Powhatan ancestry...so Trump isn't being quite fair.

But mendacious lowlifes like Liz Warren don't deserve fairness.

Lizzie Lies and fraudulently gets a $300,000 Teaching Job saying she is part Injun and it’s all Trump’s fault because she is finally called on it.

LOL
