Elizabeth Warren says she was asked if Trump is a white supremacist. Her answer more than 1/1024th backfired

Elizabeth Warren set herself up like a bowling pin with this attempt to further endear herself to the Resistance base:

Today I was asked whether the president is a white supremacist. I said yes.

So that’s how she wants to play it? Fine:

Today I was asked if Elizabeth Warren lied about her heritage. I said yes. https://t.co/9z2ACxOlYe

OOF.

Today I was asked if @ewarren was a Native American. I said no.

You said the same thing when asked if you were Native American. https://t.co/JVxrqyUxCf

You also said you were Native American, so there's that. https://t.co/LBHSsdIupF

File Warren’s attempt to serve up anti-Trump red meat to her base as a solid backfire.

You're so far from white supremacy, you actually pretend you're not white. https://t.co/A7dSPAcmf0

Being Native American, I suppose you would know.

Oh. Wait. https://t.co/YkPlLc1fPK

If you’re keeping score at home, here’s where things stand:

It went from Trump is a “traitor colluding with Russia” to “a white supremacist”. YOU are awful, awful people. https://t.co/0si8eiyhWO
