Three things are true about Elizabeth Warrens five-minute video debunking Donald Trumps claim that shes lying about her Native American roots. First, its a terrific introduction to her family history. Second, it wont change any Republican minds. And third, that doesnt matter. Its aimed squarely at Democrats and the mediaand yes, its an early salvo in what will certainly be a crowded Democratic presidential primary.
Ive sworn I would ignore 2020 politics until after the 2018 midterms, and that I will resist endorsing a Democrat as long as is humanly (for me) possible. With this piece, Im breaking the first promise, but not the second. Yes, please, pay way more attention to this Novembers races, up and down your local ballot, than you do to parsing a geneticists assertion that Warrens DNA sample provides strong evidence of Native American ancestry. And no, Im not endorsing Warren by saying this is a great and moving video. There are a lot of fantastic progressive Democrats likely to run for president. We can talk about that later. We most certainly will.
But what matters today, on the eve of these all-important midterms, is that Warren is showing Democratsand the mediathat she knows how to fight. She wont let Trump define her as either a faux Native American, an Ivy League elitist, or a liar.

She’s already defined herself...
Lying plagiaristic scammer
“She wont let Trump define her as either a faux Native American, an Ivy League elitist, or a liar.”
Looks like he won’t have to, seeing as how she’s done the work for him.
Actually, the lying Commie b!+ch defined herself. . . . Trump just pointed out the obvious.
Her own stated facts based on her own “DNA testing” disprove her story. Period. She can spin it however she wants but facts are facts.
The real story is what she did with a false narrative and stolen identity. She got on the faculty at Harvard. Harvard touted her as “the first woman of color” on their faculty. Without this position it is unlikely she would be a Senator.
A persons character is most important to most of us - not their racial identity. She cannot continue to claim one without damaging the other. Outside of her fans in the MSM who overlook one and highlight the other, this is the simple truth.
She can’t even truthfully define herself.
What Warren is counting on is what a lot of politicians count on. That their supporters won’t care if they lie through their teeth over and over again.
Shamelessness is the sine qua non of American politics these days. If you have even a momentary hesitation about lying, you are lost.
Trump doesn’t have to, she defined herself and Trump is simply stating the obvious. She is a fraud, a liar, and an opportunist. No better than stolen valor Blumenthal. Will she get defeated in November? Probably not but I don’t see how she recovers for her quest for national office. She committed political suicide by outing herself. And she apparently doesn’t get it.
She defined herself: Fake.
I believe he already did!
The Socialist Democrat Party has nothing - NOTHING - to run on against President Trump.
You should hear the ads on NY TV.
Everything that is bad is being endorsed by the socialists.
Abortion
Gay marriage
LGBYXYZ
Minimum wage
Lie - Woman do not get paid like men
Lies about Healthcare - OH!! Obamacare collapesed in 2015 was it?
Stick’um fork in her.
She is done!
The people in Massachusetts, must live in some other universe. I mean, they bought hook, line and sinker Ted Kennedy’s neck collar BS story, and now Elizabeth Warren.
The best is that guy from Harvard, who says that siting her Indian Heritage had nothing to do with her appointment, it had all to do with the fact that, SHE WAS THE BEST PERSON FOR THE JOB!!!
Too late.
“...that she knows how to fight.”
And lose.
As she causes the world to focus on Trump's branding of her.
It reminds me how a snake tightens its squeeze on its prey when the prey tries to wiggle out.
“Elizabeth Warren Will Not Let Donald Trump Define Her”
Pocahonky has done a fine job of defining herself...she’s done.
‘parsing a geneticists assertion that Warrens DNA sample provides strong evidence of Native American ancestry.’
Well, as long as you include Central American and South American ancestry...”Cherokee ancestry” is a much more specific claim.
The fact is that Pocahonky has less “Native American” DNA than the average US citizen...and she is now a laughingstock.
