Warren denies using Native American claim to advance career
CNBC "News" ^ | February 14, 2018 | by Associated Press

Posted on 02/14/2018 11:32:56 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Sen. Elizabeth Warren says President Donald Trump disrespects Native Americans by referring to her as "Pocahontas," and she says that while she's not enrolled in any tribe, "I never used my family tree to get a break or ... advance my career."

Warren says her parents married in Oklahoma in 1932, and that "the story they lived will always be a part of me. And no one — not even the president of the United States — will ever take that part of me away."

Trump frequently refers to Warren as "Pocahontas" to mock the Democrat's claims about being part Native American.

Same source that says the Porter thing is a big deal for the White House.

Hard to take them seriously on pretty much anything.

The part where you’re a moron AND a liar? You’re right. No one can ever take that away from you.

Tell a big lie often enough and you will come to believe it is true.

Technically, she’s correct, as her career didn’t advance much AFTER SHE TRIED to advance her career with her Native American claim...

so...

Liberal Snopes says Warren claimed to be Indian:

"WHAT'S TRUE
Elizabeth Warren's home is likely worth more than the average American home, and the senator has often spoken of her Native American ancestry."

A question I’d love to ask to Liz:

The list of Native Americans everyone knows by name is small and Pocahontas is on it. Why is being compared to her “disrespectful”?

Warren was being ridiculed for her Native American phoneiness, and “Pocahontas” long before Trump came on the political screen...he just thought it was funny and laughed along with the rest of us.

I’ve got a meme I did about her in 2011, long before Trump.

She’s trying to “Alinsky” the situation by polarizing and ridiculing one person....ain’t gonna work.

Pocahontas learns from Crooked Hillary.

If you get caught in a major LIE...

...just LIE more!

(Of course, one reason that Crooked Hillary lost the election is that nobody trusts her, even Dems).
