Trump Re-Election Campaign Piles On The Warren Heritage Mockery

President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign followed suit on POTUS’ notorious mockery of Native American ancestry claims by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) before her official 2020 presidential candidacy announcement Saturday.

Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale said in a statement Saturday that Warren has been “exposed as a fraud by the Native Americans she impersonated and disrespected to advance her professional career, and the people of Massachusetts she deceived to get elected.”

Parscale further tore into Warren’s campaign platform, which largely aims to make populist calls to fight economic inequality.

“The American people will reject her dishonest campaign and socialist ideas like the Green New Deal, that will raise taxes, kill jobs and crush America’s middle-class,” Parscale said.

Parscale’s dig comes a week after Trump said Warren fell into “the Pocahontas trap.” Warren also made news last week for reportedly apologizing in private to the principal chief of the Cherokee Nation for taking and publicizing a DNA test that showed she had a Native American in her family ancestry.

    And nobody would know fraud better than the guy who’s perpetrated fraud on the American people, various shareholders, his wives, and his contractors.

    Isn’t it a bit early in the campaign season to launch such an attack? It’s like they fear her or something.

  2. Trolls also pop up when Trumpland is nervous

    There is another thread started earlier called, “Warren Enters Crowded Field…”

    In it, two trolls have staked out the thread. The first was able to divert attention to (him/her) for a little bit. The second is–as we speak–dominating the thread at the present time. The discussion is now dealing nearly all of it with trollie.

  3. Wow! These racists seem kind of scared of her.

  4. I’m afraid this line of attack is going to dog her and effectively kill her campaign in the cradle.

  5. How awful! At least she’s accepting her heritage.

    Donald is still denying his African ancestry.
