That's pretty good! Can't believe I'm on trump's side here. I know it's unfair to have higher standards for Democrats, but if they fall to what Republicans has become, what's even the point of voting?
i feel like people are seeing this post on the front page and then assuming that the rest of the people conceding the tweet as a good dig are saying the same thing. i think this guy is on his own hill.

I think people are laughing at this because they don't care about Warren or don't want her to run?

Warrens bigger downfall was letting him get so under her skin that she took the test in the first place. Little Rubio, Crooked Hilary, didn't really respond to their names.

You didn't see Rubio out there showing off the size gloves he wore. Hilary just didn't have time for it. But Warren couldn't stand the nickname Pocahontas so she had to take a DNA test to prove him wrong. She took his 1 million dollar bet to prove she was Native American, and I'm sorry but less than 1% is not anything to call home a win. So she bought in to his bullying, so she changed the narrative of her campaign before it EVEN started.

She took the bait. She's DOA. Simple as that.

This tweet just sinks it home, or should for her. That the narrative still hasn't changed, and won't. Her only hope is that he's not in office come the primaries, but given how Mueller is just dragging his feet makes me think that there is either a lot more to uncover, or not enough to indict him.
QFT. She tried to prove Trump wrong and it only worked out in his favor.

Do you guys think novelty t-shirts from Spencer's Gifts are funny?

It's a Daily Wire original. I know I'm the resident Trump tweet guy, but I certainly wouldn't want to be on record as promoting this, let alone approving of it.
Funny is funny. If that puts me "on record" then spin that black circle, because that shit is funny. Whatever MAGAt came up with that one deserves the DAP...but most likely also deserves a punch in the face for a million other reasons.

I think people are laughing at this because they don't care about Warren or don't want her to run?
Or because it's funny.

I'm still laughing at this. Warren is done before she finished deciding whether to officially run.

You are deliberately missing the point as to the problem with this.

As I said from the very first post: Trump, Trump's base, and the right give zero shits about appropriating another culture. They give a *lot* of shits about blood and race. Trump is not a woke leftist raking Warren over the coals for not checking her privilege: he is tapping the angst and vitriol against affirmative action and all of its attendant racial resentment. This is bald-faced, one-drop-rule racist bullshit.
How does the one-drop-rule apply here? The one-drop-rule was the most extreme version of hypodescent and employed exclusively to distinguish between white and non-white, with any amount of African ancestry overriding any amount of European ancestry to classify a person as black instead of white. It's a very specific concept with very specific racist thinking: the idea of whiteness as purity, defined by the exclusion of whatever is "non-white".

Explain to us, how this worked out in his favor. How is his position any better now than it was a few months ago? Do you really think all trump has to do now, is say "hur dur Warren is a fake pocahontas. SAD", people will vote for him in droves?

everyone here knows trump didn't write that joke

and 90% of the people here who are mad about people laughing at this would probably be all yassss slayyy if this joke was used somewhere else
Would be less disappointed about it if it came from another source in the OP.

Any other person than the President or any other government official posting this and it might get a chuckle out of me if I already understood the context behind it, but that is not the case. Now it's the president tweeting a political propaganda meme against Warren and that doesn't sit well when I see people being any sort of positive with that.

I'm 1/8th Cherokee, and I get heat from my Cherokee relatives for "only" being that amount.

Warren never should have bothered with Trump. You can't win over a bully. Even if she was 100% vindicated, he'd just hurl a different insult her way.

It undermines her judgement and credibility. Unfortunately for Warren she is in a position where she has to measure herself against a goblin like Trump, so anything that undermines her character is automatically a "win" for him.

I always had the idea that this forum blames Jimmy Fallon for the rise of Trump more than the hundreds of years of racism, extreme religion, and capitalism than have been a core of the United States of America soul since its inception and that at some point was going to explode letting someone like Trump taking power

But no, Trump wouldn't have never been elected if weren't for Jimmy fucking Fallon ruffling Trump's hair on national. And sadly the overreaction of some people here show that people really think that Trump won for his meme power rather than a combination of a broken electoral system and a good chunk of the country admiring a racist nutjob shitposter because they feel identified with him

It's not a huge advantage for him or anything, just gives him more shitpost material and knocks out a potential opponent. Managing to turn your gotcha moment into more ammo for the enemy is a hilarious gaffe through and through.

I mean, yeah, his base will eat that shit up

literally all Trump has to do is say he has more native american ancestry than Warren and never ever back it up because when has he ever backed anything up

she handled that whole thing in just about the worst way possible from every single angle

Because even liberals and fans of hers are going "she fucked up"

and I am a fan of Warren, I enjoy her being my Senator, but she destroyed any chance of getting my primary vote with her getting rope a dope'd by Trump

This is genuinely funny, and an example of why running Lisa Simpson against Nelson Muntz is a risky proposition, to say the least.

Absolutely, but Trump has already tweeted far worse memes from far worse sources than the Daily Wire (remember the star of David fiasco?), so the only real new thing here are the contents of the particular tweet.

it's not like people are applauding and are actually happy about it. they're just conceding that it's an unusually decent burn from his team. i don't think you have to worry about the way his behavior will be regarded going forward.

It's been 2 years of this low-class shit behavior coming from the President. The shock has worn off for some.

I'm fucking appalled that so many people in this thread are laughing at the President of the United States posting shitmemes while things are falling apart.

None of this is funny. How you feel about Warren does not matter. What in the actual fuck.

I couldn't care less about Trump's racist base. They can post a picture of a frog and make it racist. Those shitheads will always be shitheads.

Saying that Rubio and Clinton -who both lost to Trump- handled Trump's attack better doesn't make sense.

2020 isn't going to be decided on a Democratic candidate choosing between the strategy of ignoring a nickname a la "Little Marco" or going on the offensive regarding a nickname a la "Pocahontas."

There is no "correct strategy" for dealing with Trump because it's not a level playing field. The GoP gerrymanders, they disenfranchise, they steal mail-in-ballots from people.

The president of the United States is shitposting a senator.
While the government is still in its 3rd shutdown in the last 365 days.
Hillarous.
Yea, the joke is funny.

The fact that our awful president is doing it while the government is shut down has it's own sort of black humor, but that's irrelevant.
