Never mind Elizabeth Warren — President Trump could soon have a “Pocahontas” in his own family.

And Donald Trump Jr. wants to make a sport of it.

In a segment on Fox News Channel’s “The Five,” the anchors took the popular “23 and Me” DNA tests to determine their ancestry.

According to the tests, 6.1 percent of Kimberly Guilfoyle’s DNA is “East Asian and Native American,” with 5.3 percent definitely Native American and the rest possibly either.

The posting of the results by the conservative site Twitchy prompted the presidential son, who has been widely reported as dating Ms. Guilfoyle, to engage in some snark at Ms. Warren’s expense and for the benefit of a Native American charity.

“I’ll make this interesting. I’ll bet @SenWarren $10,000 to a Native American charity that @kimguilfoyle is more Native American than she is. [Let me know],” he wrote on Twitter.

I’ll make this interesting. I’ll bet @SenWarren $10,000 to a Native American charity that @kimguilfoyle is more Native American than she is. LMK

...then Guilfoyle is Big Beaver. there is a Big Beaver Road in Troy, Michigan, in Oakland County. I used to work in that area, and I can say without any guilt or remorse that I was frequently on the Big Beaver.

Elizabeth Warren Takes a DNA test

“Ms Warren, we have the results of your DNA test.”
“How much aboriginal ancestry do I have?”
“Well, there is good news and bad news.”
“What’s the bad news?”
“There’s no Indian blood. You are 20 percent Irish, 33 percent German, 47 percent Roma gypsy. You are hot-headed, bent on world domination, and completely untrustworthy.”
“Damn. What’s the good news?”
“You’re in the correct line of work.”

Happened to me too. My mom’s family lied to her about who her father actually was. We still don’t know.

Not a drop, and we thought we were 1/16th Blackfoot.

She pricked her finger one day and it occurred to her she might have a porcupine.

Yes, very low percentages of a certain ancestry may be meaningless. I have taken the DNA test with several companies and received wildly different ethnic breakdowns (some of which bear little resemblance to what I know from genealogical research).

If you go back several generations, you have ancestors from whom you have inherited no DNA at all. So lack of any Native American DNA would not conclusively prove that Liz Warren is lying. Even though we know that she is.

No American Indian ancestry myself, but I had cousins in the 19th century who married Cherokees and went with their families on the Trail of Tears to Indian Territory--while Liz Warren's white ancestors were prodding them along.
