Look how obsessed the tiny trumpanzees still are with Sen. Warren calling the orange slug's bluff.
Funny that I don't remember this kind of helpless pants-wetting when Rump claimed to be "Swedish".
Wonder why that is.
Rump claimed to be "Swedish", Warren claimed multiple Native American.
One of them backed away and pretends the claim never happened.
Guess which one.
Equally interesting how Pocahontas --- the real one romanticized in colonial history --- was taken to England to be paraded around as a freak, a "noble savage" example of how the inferior race could be "Christianized", before she died there at the ripe old age of 21, and her entire life story made into a contrived propaganda story to rationalize racist colonial cultural genocide. Fast forward to the present and we have an fake-Swedish POTUS with a fake-orange face trying to parade the same sort of propaganda for the same knuckledragger element in yet another propaganda fable of self-aggrandizement.
And the knuckledraggers line up to swallow the same ethnocentric bullshit, just as they did in 1607, because swallowing bullshit stories that make their pathetic asses feel superior is far more important than "facts".
The more things change the more they stay the same.
I wonder why someone of German heritage would ever try to hide it....
It is not like there is immense anti-German bigotry in this country or anything.....
I wonder how people would treat me if they knew I was a Republican and that my mother's maiden name is Freitag......
So you're Nancy Friday's son. Great.
And thank you, you remind me of the other point I forgot to mention. Here's Rump's grandfather (or father, not sure which) avoiding his German lineage because of the bigotry of the time. The same time that Fred was arrested at a Klan rally ironically.
And on the other hand here's Warren's ancestors self-identifying as "white" on the census forms of the same period, for the same reason.
The Rump family fudge gets a pass while the Warren census fudge is held up by the WDS knuckledraggers on this board as "proof" of "she lied". As if it's not possible that the ancestors filling out the census forms, or Rump's father/grandfather, were the ones who lied, for their own protection.
And by the way Rump himself wrote that bit about "Swedish" because that's what he was told. Exactly the same as Warren's derivation of family lore. So Rump "lied" in his book exactly the same way Warren "lied" --- except that in Warren's case she actually
proved it.
Yet one gets a complete pass while the other gets "she lied"
Complete hypocrites, all y'all in WDS fantasyland.
