I am trying to figure out why he thinks Warren "telling the truth" is the "simplest conclusion." His only applicable premise seems to be the inexactitude of family lore at a 5th generational remove. At best that suggests she was speaking sincerely, but not truthfully.
And that is before one examines the truth of her claims taken singly. E.G., how inexact is family lore at 1 generation? Are we supposed to accept the story about her parents elopement at face value?
Pretty cool he reads your stuff. Funny the trading models he built for Renaissance Technologies helped fund trump’s presidential campaign. Robert Mercer ran that hedge fund and also was trump’s biggest donor.
A: 'expert in indigenous admixture?' Are you telling me some people can read certain genes better than others? Isn't that racial pseudoscience? B: If her ancestor was possibly 50% white...I'm not a fan of the maths pre se, but I'm pretty sure this weakens her case?
I'm no genius geneticist, but Warren having one half-injun granny in 1850 seems to me to prove she's been lying bc she's clearly been identifying herself as more Indian than that
Also, Native Americans should clearly stop complaining that they don't have representation.
This is not even a little persuasive.
Warren's claim is dependent on the indian ancestor being on her mother's side (Reed). If she unknowingly had an indian ancestor on her father's side (Herring) she is still a First Class Liar. The second possibility remains and so not quite time to shut the book. Triangulate
This has to be a troll
FFS, why doesn't he just say that she "identifies" as a Native American? Isn't that all that's required?
