The Morning Rant

"So, to recap, after months of trolling by President Trump, who likes to call her 'Pocahontas', Sen. Warren released the results of her DNA test. Yes, shd did. And it turns out that she isn't 1/2 Cherokee or 1/4th Cherokee or 1/8th Cherokee or even 1/16th Cherokee. No, you have to go all the way down to 1/1024th to match the percentage, which means that about 10 generations ago, one of Warren's ancestors kissed an Indian on the lips, and that's the extent of Warren's native American heritage. In other words, nothing. She's 1023/1024 white bread American. Heck, *I've* got more Indian blood than she does, and I'm a gorilla. And now Warren and her defenders are out there running a victory lap like it proved she was right, when actually it's the exact opposite. If it proves anything at all. Because supposedly there's not much Amerindian DNA in the databases that they can use for comparison, so in reality, the 1/1024th is probably some sort of Latin American DNA and that's as close as they can match it to anything. And you gotta love Donnie Two Scoops. When the journos asked him to comment on the test results, he just said 'who cares?' and walked away."
