Well, if you're buddies with and admire people like Putin, Erdogan, Duterte, and Kim Jong-un, there's bound to be some awkward situations when they order horrific crimes.

To no great surprise to anyone, Lord Dampnut's mouth is writing checks his ass can't cash:

President Trump on Monday denied that he offered Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) $1 million to take a test proving her Native American heritage, even though he did just that.
Trump spoke after Warren responded to the president's challenge and released the results of a DNA test showing she has a distant Native ancestor.
"I didn't say that. You'd better read it again," Trump told reporters at the White House when asked about his $1 million offer.
Responding to a question about Warren's test, Trump said, "Who cares?"
During a campaign rally on July 5, Trump taunted Warren for her claims of Native American ancestry, a staple of his campaign stump speeches.
"I will give you a million dollars, to your favorite charity, paid for by Trump, if you take the test and it shows you're an Indian," Trump said at the time. "I have a feeling she will say 'no.' "
For extra hilarity, remember the time when Lord Dampnut sent proof to Bill Maher that he isn't the son of an orangutan and demanded that he pay him? Sued Maher, even: (

Trump is correct...she's not an Indian.

Quote:
TAHLEQUAH, Okla. — Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. issued the following statement Monday in response to Senator Elizabeth Warren’s DNA test claiming Native Heritage:
"A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship. Current DNA tests do not even distinguish whether a person’s ancestors were indigenous to North or South America," Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said. "Sovereign tribal nations set their own legal requirements for citizenship, and while DNA tests can be used to determine lineage, such as paternity to an individual, it is not evidence for tribal affiliation. Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong. It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.
But of course, the desperate and neurotic Elizabeth Warren will continue to promote her nonsense...just to save face.

LOL. She didn't claim tribal citizenship. She didn't claim full blood. You listen about like Trump. She claimed she had Indian in her family tree on a faculty mixer and nothing more. Seriously, you try to weasel out of stuff like Trump does with taxes. Trump is a dirty welsher (no offense to the Welsh) but we always knew he was. Now you repugnants try to weasel out on your smear campaign against her when it goes against you and it is hilarious. Twist that crap into pretzels and it still smells like crap. YOU LOST THE BET. But you can't admit it because you are dishonest. No surprise at all. Eat that crow you squirming liars.

Tocky's right, Vae. Warren never claimed she was an Indian, only that she had Indian (I think Cherokee) in her ancestry, and some customs handed down in her family throughout the years. It was Trump that made a big deal out of this, calling her Pocahontas on the campaign trail, making fun of her in front of full blooded Indians on live TV. He even claimed he'd donate $1,000,000 to a charity of her choice if she took a DNA test, and had even a drop of Indian blood in her veins.
...and guess what? She did, and she does. About 6-10 generations back. Not a lot, but it's there.
Now Trump's saying it doesn't matter, that he doesn't care. Which obviously isn't true, because he's the one who drummed up the issue, brought it to national attention, and has continued harping on it two years after the election.
Somehow, this is all Warren's fault. And Trump is reneging on his promise.

Also, I hope to god Warren doesn't run for president. She doesn't have the charisma necessary to beat Trump at his own game.
Tocky on 16/10/2018 at 02:52
Have you seen her tear into some of the lying creeps in Washington? She pulls the cover off their crooked bull and leaves them shivering like baby mice on a snow pile. She has plenty charisma. More than that, she has integrity and decency, both of which are foreign concepts to Trump. He can't fake what she has in spades.
Renzatic on 16/10/2018 at 03:03
She has plenty of drive and indignation, but she doesn't have enough widespread appeal to act as a bridge across the moderate liberal-conservative divide.
My three presidential hopefuls are Joe Biden, John Kasich, and Tammy Duckworth.
