Warren Releases DNA Results (Updated OP)
- Thread starter Deleted member 22490
- Start date
This would undercut a shitton of Trump mockery about her being scared to do a DNA test, but instead he'll just target the actual results instead.
This is playing right into these asshole's hands. I can't help but feel that this won't help her one bit. The damage was already done and now they have more fodder.
Or he'll just find something else to mock. He's a bully. It's the power dynamic that matters, not the facts.
Whoops
So now you face the possibility that Trump was right in mocking the potentially very minimal Native American influence on her family tree. 1/32 isn't even enough to get a scholarship in many places.
He was always going to latch onto something to attack you; don't play into his hands.

When she presents this DNA, this quote ^ should be her play... Cards on the table.
Bad move on her part of this report is true. I really wish she would stop considering running and hopefully she doesn't. I like her, but man she just doesn't have what it takes to go up against Republicans at this point.
She could run on a platform of absolute transparency. Depends on how many skeletons she has in her closet still.
Would be a ridiculous contrast to Trump and his ever shrinking palace built on lies.

They will still mock her for this, you can't win against these people by playing into their games.
Yeah, 1/32 is hardly significant. It's the kind of shit that gets played for a cheap laugh in films and sitcoms.
the number of times ive heard americans say im 1/16th italian 1/8th irish 1/4th german... 1/something something
They were going to mock her anyway, now they have results to prove it's a claim worth mocking. Not sure of the strategy here...
Thinking it over it makes sense to release this. Even some liberals throw shade at white looking people for making use of their native american ancestry to get certain benefits in college. Even though they hate Trump in the back of their minds they would be annoyed with Warren as well due to their predispositions.
OTOH If Warren primarily did this to undercut Trump himself among his fanbase that is a mistake. She instead should be attacking his tax dodging inheritance and insinuate eventually he's going to pay all those taxes and give them back to the people including his fanbase.

Next you're going to tell me Obama released his college transcripts. The people this is for aren't arguing in good faith in the first place. They wouldn't have given a shit if this showed she had native ties but they will certainly give a shit now that it shows she doesn't
I don't understand what she thought this would accomplish. 1/512 percent Native American. She just validated Trump to a large portion of this country.
With this she's already proven she's doesn't have the correct strategy for running against Trump.
My kids are 3/256 Choctaw and are members of the tribe and can vote in the tribe when 18. They're also 1/16 Cherokee but not members.
He would mock her no matter what. What this does is instill pride for NAs and push back on his racist ass.

Yeah that's where I'm leaning as well.
Please don't run, Warren. We need you more as a senator. As democratic presidential nominee, you're just gonna drive more nationwide republicans to the polls.
Shoulda saved these for a "gotcha" on a debate stage immediately after Trump claims she's lying about being Native American. This is so badly timed.
This is stupid. She could be 1/4 th or 1/8th and it wouldn't change trumps tune on this. Now he has a number to point to in his mockery. I mean shit, you're never getting his tax returns what good does it do you at this point to give him this?
Damned if you do, damned if you don't in this case.
Why no...no it doesn't, in fact! He claimed she didn't have any, this says she has some...so. However, the goalposts will be moved, as usual, and his idiotic base will buy into it as usual.

This would have been the equivalent of "Actually, you forgot Poland."
