Donald Trump, Liz Warren trade barbs on Indian heritage

Share:

Trump has used the name to mock Warren on several occasions during his run for the White House and as president.

Massachusetts Democrat Ed Markey came to the defense of his U.S. Senate colleague Elizabeth Warren Friday, offering that nothing President Donald Trump throws at her "is going to slow her down". You won't find my family members on any rolls, and I'm not enrolled in a tribe.

But then Trump took it one step further on Thursday, suggesting that if Warren were to win the Democratic nomination in 2020 and they were to debate, he would call on her to take an ancestry test. "Her phony Native American heritage stops that and VP cold".

During his speech, Trump offered Warren $1 million towards her favorite charity if she took a DNA test "and it shows you're an Indian".

Warren is seen as a leading Democratic prospect to challenge Trump in the 2020 presidential race - which Trump seemed to acknowledge with relish in his taunts. Ted Cruz (R-TX) - said that Trump's comments maligning Sen.

Trump's attacks on Warren's heritage are reminiscent of the "birther" movement that thrust him into the political spotlight years ago when he waged a media campaign to try and prove former President Barack Obama was born in Kenya, the home country of his father, instead of in Hawaii. "It makes me cringe when I hear him talk like that and, as you say, Brooke, for people to laugh and to encourage him". "Hey, @realDonaldTrump: While you obsess over my genes, your Admin is conducting DNA tests on little kids because you ripped them from their mamas & you are too incompetent to reunite them in time to meet a court order", the senator, 69, tweeted on Thursday, referring to the migrant child crisis going on as a result of the president's zero-tolerance immigration policy.

"He becomes out of touch with the seriousness, as you said, of the me too movement, which is critical for so many reasons in empowering victims of many different types of abuse", she continued. "I'm automatically attracted to beautiful - I just start kissing them", he said at the time.
