President Trump mocked Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Tuesday over a DNA test he goaded her into taking, after it showed she had at most a tiny percentage of Native American ancestry.

“Pocahontas (the bad version), sometimes referred to as Elizabeth Warren, is getting slammed. She took a bogus DNA test and it showed that she may be 1/1024, far less than the average American,” Trump tweeted Tuesday.

“Now Cherokee Nation denies her, ‘DNA test is useless.’ Even they don’t want her. Phony!” he wrote.


The Cherokee Nation, the federally recognized government of the Cherokee people, also dismissed Warren's test, and said Warren undermined their tribal interests by continuing to claim she had Native American heritage.

“A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship,” Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said in a statement.

Warren released DNA results Monday that concluded she was between 1/1024 and 1/64 Native American.

Trump has repeatedly mocked Warren over her ancestry claims. At a rally in July, he promised to donate $1 million to a charity of Warren’s choice if she took a DNA test to prove her heritage. On Monday, Trump dismissed his prior comment and said, "who cares?"

In another tweet Tuesday, he labeled her liar and called on her to apologize “for perpetrating this fraud” against Americans.

“Now that her claims of being of Indian heritage have turned out to be a scam and a lie, Elizabeth Warren should apologize for perpetrating this fraud against the American Public. Harvard called her ‘a person of color’ (amazing con), and would not have taken her otherwise!” he said.


Trump also thanked the Cherokee Nation for showing that Warren is a "complete and total Fraud!"
