So she basically said she was a native without any proof at all, then she tried to bait racial minority's to vote for her because of this.
I thought she said it in defense of people claiming she used her over played "native heritage" several decades ago to get jobs or get into school, although that was debunked.
Either way she screwed up and doesn't know how to properly quash nothing burger gaffs.

Yup, just as i thought. Gatygun seems to be incorrect, she never used it as a bait for racial votes. It was a decades old gaff only brought up recently by others, making her defend herself. The original claims used against her was she used this "lie" to get ahead in her career a long time ago. But this never happened.
Ethnicity not a factor in Elizabeth Warren’s rise in law

She should have completely ignored it after The Globe thoroughly vindicated her.
Very dumb to even speak about it after that, much less do a stupid DNA test. Trump has done things that are 100x worse and 100x more frequently, yet nothing happens to him. He knows how to handle stuff, she doesn't.
