Trump faked his heritage just like he's accusing Warren of doing

Shortly after World War II, Donald Trump's father Fred falsely claimed their family was Swedish, hiding their German heritage to avoid any problems selling apartments to Jewish customers, the Boston Globe reported last year. Donald Trump was still claiming Swedish heritage as late as his 1987 book "Art of the Deal," in which he writes that his grandfather came to the U.S. from Sweden.

Why it matters: After President Trump called Sen. Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas" at an event honoring Navajo Code Talkers, Press Secretary Sarah Sanders defended him saying, ""I think what most people find offensive is Elizabeth Warren lying about her heritage to advance her career."

Correction: This story initially misidentified Fred as Trump's brother, rather than his father.

Trump is a person with so much negative baggage and bad behavior throughout his life that he should never criticize anyone else. Most of what he has done or is doing is worse then the people he criticizes

Trump was not trying to exploit the Affirmative Action system like Warren was.

She never used Affirmative Action: that's a lie, a myth the RW is spreading--just like you spread uncountable such lies to suit your version of reality. Shame on you.

What does claiming to be Swedish get you in this country
1, Fuck all.

What does claiming to be an Indian get you.
1. Free college
2. Free health care.
3. Free housing
4. Revenue from gaming casino's. To be fair not all Indian's receive this money its somewhere around 40% of the population.
I'm sure there are many other benefits but it became tedious as hell sifting though the bullshit to find them.

If my obvious lily white European ass claimed to be an Indian I would be crucified by the left for cultural appropriation but my heritage is Scottish and nobody gives a flying fuck.

Warren never took advantage of any of those things. No matter what Trump does, even if it is worse than what others do, you will defend and or deny. You people are nothing more than Trump robots. Mindless and soulless.

did trump lie to get away with stealing?

no?

well fakeahontus did.

Trump lied because he was selling apartments to Jews to whom Germany was unpopular.

So his grandfather did it to avoid being discriminated against. What does that have to do with the President Trump? Nothing....

It is hysterical watching this dynamic play out........seeing the heads of progressives explode literally every day over tweets. Its like watching a little kid soccer game!! The level of derangement is profound. Most fascinating is the continued level of attacks on Trump, which progressives did relentlessly in 2016.........but they didn't recognize then and still don't recognize that nobody cares. Identity politics = losing. Well established at the voting booths for many years now.

Tweets are not to be taken lightly. This is the voice of the US president. What used to be the voice of the free world. It no longer is, not since Trump took office. He is no longer the voice of the developed, first world. He would make a typical banana republic dictator. But, what he says and tweets all reflect on our country. You cannot dismiss the things he says and what he thinks as just tweets.

You know, you guys voted for him because you wanted Washington to change. That's one thing. But putting a ridiculous low-life clown in the presidency is something else: something very, very wrong and very bad for America. Change for the better is one thing, but this is change for the worse--very much worse.

Hey lying bastard, a link to a credible source as to that accusation. You cannot supply it because that never happened. Just another lying bigoted asshole.

No need for the personal insults.

“Harvard hired Warren for a temporary position in 1992, and the law school reported a Native American woman on its federally mandated affirmative-action report.”

‘Penn’s 2005 Minority Equity Report identified her as the recipient of a 1994 faculty award, listing her name in bold to signify that she was a minority.”

“Warren first listed herself as a minority in the Association of American Law Schools Directory of Faculty in 1986, the year before she joined the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania Law School. She continued to list herself as a minority until 1995, the year she accepted a tenured position at Harvard Law School.”

Sooooo either Harvard is lying or Warren is lying.

Did Elizabeth Warren check the Native American box when she ‘applied’ to Harvard and Penn?

Your own link says that the GOP through Scott Brown were lying, giving them 2 Pinocchios, not Warren!!!!!

From your own link:
The Pinocchio Test
Brown said that Warren “checked the box claiming she was Native American” when she applied to Harvard and Penn, suggesting the Democratic candidate somehow gained an unfair advantage because of an iffy ethnic background. But there is no proof that she ever marked a form to tell the schools about her heritage, nor is there any public evidence that the universities knew about her lineage before hiring her.

The senator’s debate comments also suggest Warren actively applied for positions with Harvard and Penn, but the evidence suggests the schools recruited her because of her groundbreaking research and writings on bankruptcy. Harvard, in fact, did not give up on her after she first turned down a tenured position with the university.

Some might assume that Warren listed herself as a minority in the law school directories to attract offers from top schools, which would be a pro-active measure. The explanation that she was reaching out to other Native Americans — when she was merely listed as a “minority” — certainly appears suspicious, but there is no conclusive evidence that she used her status in the listing to land a job.

But Warren appears to have been well-qualified for the teaching positions and excelled once she was hired.

The Fact Checker expects accusers to satisfy the burden of proof for their charges. That was the case when Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said that GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney tried to avoid taxes with offshore accounts. We awarded four Pinocchios to Reid because the senator lacked conclusive evidence — or much evidence at all, for that matter. We’ve also knocked the Obama campaign repeatedly for jumping to unwarranted conclusions about Mitt Romney’s record at Bain Capital.

The outstanding questions about Warren’s directory listing — and her relying on family lore rather than official documentation to make an ethnic claim — certainly raise serious concerns about Warren’s judgment. But in the debate, the Republican incumbent conflated conjecture and sketchy information to make a claim not supported by the available evidence, and so he earns Two Pinocchios.

Two Pinocchios

 

[TheParser]

Whenever Senator Warren's face appears on my television screen, I immediately turn to another channel, for I find her shrill attitude very off-putting.

Nevertheless, I feel that President Trump (for whom I proudly voted) should NOT have made that remark because:


a. It lowered the dignity of the White House ceremony.

b. It only gave Senator Warren more unnecessary attention.

c. It has enabled Senator Warren to successfully raise more campaign funds.

Yea, The Washington Post contradicted itself......no surprise.
But, it's very clear that Warren used being a fake Indian to advance her career.
Trump is ridiculing her for being a faker. She deserves it.

That never happened. Liz did not go to Harvard. She got her degrees elsewhere.

The bitch lied in order to get a job at harvard.
Harvard put out a notice welcoming "The First American Indian professor at Harvard".
Now you can fuck off!

She listed herself as a minority on a legal directory reviewed by deans and hiring committees.

The University of Pennsylvania “listed her as a minority faculty member,” and she was touted after her hire at Harvard Law School as, yes, the school’s “first woman of color.”
