Pocohantas is what Trump calls Elizabeth Warren because she said she is Native American and she isn't.

Some very white lady claimed she was native american and dna results came back negative. Pocohantas was a real native american women way back in time. So trump is just trolling that old bag.

All you have to do is look at her. Plus, they tested her and it came back as being like 0.00012345 or something. She's another liar.

I cried a little on the inside realizing this
Warren at least has her BIG BOY pants on and is WILLING TO TRY PLANS TO MAKE OUR LIVES BETTER, even if they aren't MY plans, she seems fucking prepared.
Trump is when you haven't studied for a midterm because you know you can suck the professor off for an A after failing the exam.
I've told many people even if I vehemently disagree w/ Warren at least we'd have a respectable president.

lol it's good you admit that but it's not a good thing to be. Hypocrisy can invalidate everything that you state or claim especially when it comes to the judgment of others. It shows you lack morals, principles and integrity and that you're willing to completely alter your beliefs as it becomes politically expedient to do so. Did I miss a Salon article or something? "Why Hypocrisy is Good in 2019!"
You mean her LIE about her heritage.
Was she wearing her big boy pants when she decided to lie and take a job away from a minority person of color? Amazing (well, not really) how the Left are not SUPER DUPER ANGRY about this, considering they claim to be against racism and for people of color.

That's not true, not everyone is a hypocrite.
I don't understand what you're saying here. She took the DNA test and it proved she was lying. And that's a trait that you want in your president? A white privileged person who steals opportunities from people of color by blatantly lying about their race. Are you also someone that says Trump is racist and is unfit for office?
Looks like you're simply a hypocrite that's trying to pass that off as "a human trait". Very transparent fail on your part.

Retired Never Was, Coulda been wannabe
First, we have a thread elsewhere in the forum beating this subject to death. Is there really a need to pollute the Trump thread with a Warren discussion point?
Second, the argument you make also applies to yourself: Arguing against a lying president, when Trump has so many statements that have played out as untrue....you support this and think it is acceptable? If you answer is that Trump has never lied, you expose yourself as refusing to accept reality.
Me. I'm pretty sure even I constitute "the left" now.
If you are left, you aren't right. If you aren't right, you're wrong.
Just messing with you. Move along.

It would be very interesting to see someone from the inside blow shit up, but I wonder if the media will cover it.

AOC to endorse Bernie Sanders in 2020 Democratic presidential primary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., plans to endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and appear with him at an event this weekend.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., plans to endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and appear with him at an event this weekend, The USA TODAY Network has learned.
A person with knowledge of the plans confirmed the endorsement. The Washington Post had first reported the planned endorsement.
Nina Turner, a former state senator and current Sanders campaign national co-chair, said to The USA TODAY Network that Ocasio-Cortez was returning the favor for the groundwork Sanders' campaign had laid in 2016.
"So the foundation that he laid in 2016 allowed for candidates to stand up and be bold and run their race," Turner said. "This is coming full circle. One person doesn't make or break a campaign, but the level of excitement, it's going to take it to the next level for us."
Later in the evening, Rep. Ilhan Omar, another member of the group of progressive House freshmen colloquially known as "the Squad" announced her endorsement of Sanders.
Omar cited Sanders' leadership of a "working class movement to defeat Donald Trump," and his leadership on other major progressive issues – "And it’s why I believe Bernie Sanders is the best candidate to take on Donald Trump in 2020," she said in a release.
Sanders had promoted the rally, which will take place in Queens, New York, during the debate, along with the promise of a "special guest."

So the Democratic debate happened.
Here’s a summary with links.

Personally, I think the only person ascending is Buttigieg, and he damaged O’Rourke handily.

He had a lively exchange with fellow veteran Tulsi Gabbard regarding Syria.

Other than that, imo, it’s status quo.

I was pleased to see in the latest general debate that Messsrs Yang and O'Rourke had something new and sensible to say about narcotics; predictably the rehab indu$try is screaming bloody murder; the biggest disappointment was Senator Harris -- I knew that she had been a prosecutor in the past but the past several weeks her authoritarian streak has become as plain as the nose on one's face and a President Harris would lead to Uncle Sam murdering another 500k unsupervised opioid users . . . trying to get Trump kicked off Twitter? It is not petty or innocuous -- it reminds one of the self-styled power tripping "spam fighters" in the 1990s who had no compunction about hacking into ISP servers, attempting arson in at least one case, dissemnating kidde pr0n, deploying malware, and sending outright falsified information to providers trying to cancel accounts, even though if they looked at their own ISPs Terms of Service they would see that for about 90 per cent of them doing something like that is a rather clear violation.
Congresswoman Gabbard yesterday shot back at a smear from HRC and called her the Queen of the Warmongers . . .
Gabbard responded this afternoon, calling Clinton, “the queen of warmongers, embodiment of corruption, and personification of the rot that has sickened the Democratic Party for so long.”
She dared Clinton to get in the race directly instead of “cowardly hid[ing]” behind proxies

Cong Gabbard also has a sustained feud with Senator Harris, who showed how toxic she was in the second debate . . . there are people who want those two to fuck and make up live at the next debate, but I am thinking it is not for factional reasons . . .
