And then through all of that, like... you don't get what you want in the end. You know, he's on the Supreme Court, and she's probably questioning: "Should I have done that? Should I have put my life in danger? Should I have put my life on the line?" -- in a sense, uh to do this. The Abbess of Witless is another conservative hypocrite. She "can't" judge whether or not Trump likes women, based on 40 years of public record, but she can judge Blasey Ford enough to figure she's second-guessing herself, based on one afternoon of testimony. Interesting how those judgment powers reactivate, when they're called upon to assess the mindset of someone who's calling out this administration. It's only Tuesday, but this week has negativelyaffected my opinion of Abby Huntsman. I don't care that she had a privileged upbringing, or that she has a famous father. I don't hold either of those things against her in deciding whether or not she should be on The View. But I think she's a wolf in sheep's clothing, if this week is indicative of her character. She puts herself forth as some Melanie Wilkes character, who is just sweet and thinks only sweet thoughts about everyone, but she's deceptive in a much more dangerous way than Meghan is. I rue the day Meghan joined this show, but at least Meghan doesn't pretend not to be partisan. She's a shrew, but she doesn't act like she's a saint.

He means to slam her with his "Pocahantas" comment...just one idiotic insult of too many in his repertoire. I read that Native Americans were also insulted. Maybe by spending some $$$ on a DNA test Senator Warren has put a rest to his old schtick. Hopefully. I think that the reason that some Native Americans are offended is because Natives voices and concerns are not being heard in this stupid fight between Trump and Elizabeth Warren. There is a lot of shadiness surrounding Native Americans right now that the media is not talking about, but, instead, we are focusing on this asinine fight that is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. Megan as usual is ignorant about history. Megan saying that every White person in this country has Native American in their DNA is nonsense. It was an attempt to mock Elizabeth Warren. The hatred for Native Americans in this country was widespread just like the hatred of Blacks. It was considered terrible to marry a Native American , even more so to have children. Native Americans were the first victims of European colonization. At one point they were the majority and populated all of Alaska, North America, Central America, South America and all of the Caribbean islands. Their genocide in the western Hemisphere led to the enslavement of Africans and the slave trade. Being Black, I have always felt a kinship to Native Americans because we share a common pain of displacement and profound lost. Edited October 16, 2018 by Apprentice79 22 Link to comment

CheezyXpressed October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 Now that we've seen Abby and Meghan together, I'm going to come out and say I prefer Abby on the panel so much more than Meghan. Abby mentions her family and whatnot when the topic pertains to it and she provides real world examples. Instead of, "I have a good friend like this and my dad is this and I love the constitution...blah blah blah." She'll say, "I come from a big family, so when it comes to big events, we do have to be mindful of one another and really think of when we announce things." Then she related a story of her sister ending her engagement and Abby was getting married, which I think is a valid way to put it. She relates her life to the topic, instead of making the topic about herself. She also lets others speak. This is important. She also tries to participate in every topic, even the fluffy sex ones and I've noticed that she'll try to bring others into the topic too. Sometimes she'll ask Sunny if this is correct or say, "Meghan might feel the same." She doesn't try to force her opinion or say she's speaking for a group of people, she'll just say her views which is the point of the show. I may not agree with her, but she's allowed to have opposing views and speak about them. She seems to enjoy herself at the table and is always smiling and laughing. Whoopi may not like her, but I feel like Joy and Sunny do. Not as much as Paula, but I think she might get there. 1 hour ago, Haleth said: I think Meghan should take a page from Charlotte Pence and take some time off to write a book about her dad.

Even though most do not have it. It is nothing nefarious. The interactions between Natives and Africans were negligible, even more so with African-Americans and the tiny Native American population that was left, were put on reservations. Native Americans also owned slaves, so there were more interaction than one might expect. Many of my own family from Oklahoma were descendants of slaves owned by Creek tribe. At the end of the Civil War those slaves were made citizens of the tribes which owned them, 4 hours ago, Alexis2291 said: I love that Joy made Meghan correct herself when she said that everyone at the table (presumably minus Abby) would be "going crazy" if Ted Cruz came out claiming he was part Native American. Just call them hysterical liberals, Meghan. I'm sure that's what you wanted to say instead of "going crazy." If Ted Cruz took an ancestry test, her very well could be part Native American via his Cuban background, interesting enough. Most Cubans are some mix of Spanish, African, and the Native people on the island. Most commercial DNA tests, do not test individual tribe DNA, instead they lump indigenous North and South American natives into one group. Which is why I didn't understand why the Cherokee Nation spoke out. She never said she was a member of their tribe, just that a distant relative was. 10 Link to comment

CheezyXpressed October 16, 2018 Share October 16, 2018 I think the DNA test is still stupid, because those tests are not accurate. There have also been cases where white supremacists have taken the tests to see just how white they are, but since there's always a room of error, the testers just put a certain small percentage (that doesn't account for much) as black just to mess with them. It's incredibly funny, but not accurate. For those like me who come from Africa, it's even harder to get a reading because the DNA testing centers don't have a lot of our blood to begin with. So if I take it, it might just say "East African" without an actual breakdown because they don't know. And if you send your DNA to different places, you'll get different results. They can't really tell you about your ancestry, even though they claim to. Warren may have done this to get back at Trump and make him pay up for a charity, but she shouldn't have had to in the beginning. 1 Link to comment

My family members were told that we had an Algonquin ancestor - I even did grade school book reports on the Algonquins! As I got older, I learned that many white families talked up Native American ancestors to "hide" a black ancestor, just in case a darker skin tone showed up. In that vein (hah!), I had my DNA done, because I was very curious to know if our fabled Algonquin was really African-American. Turns out it is neither, and I am so white I have to put on shades to read my DNA report. It was very disappointing to not even have a whisper of an intriguing or mysterious contributor to the gene pool. On the other hand, I know a lot about the midwestern Algonquin tribes. So not only is Meghan mistaken (shocking), Elizabeth Warren was -- like many of us -- repeating what she had been told by her family her entire life. Until DNA, there was really no way to absolutely prove who you were descended from. I'm glad she was able to prove some Native American ancestry, but until this millennium, she wouldn't have been able to. We all go by what our families tell us. She is no different and I hold no hostility for her for doing what we did for centuries: Believe our family stories. 16 Link to comment

Want to use me an as example, Meghan? And I had sorely wished that someone at the table would have countered Meghan's comments with something along these lines. Claiming to have Native ties doesn't automatically infer that you're claiming to be Native American or a tribe member (to which Warren apparently clarified directly to the Cherokee Nation). Maybe the average white person may be more Native than Warren, but the average white person may not have much information (or know at all) about their Native ties hence why many don't talk about it. Warren's family passed down the stories about their Native ancestor and just because their generations married white and continue with non-Native traditions doesn't mean they aren't allowed to recognize and have pride in whatever small tie they have. Warren repeated stories that she was told from since childhood and she has a sense of pride in those stories. In being called a liar, she didn't see it as a slight against herself, but a slight against her mother who was the one that told her all of these stories. The DNA test wasn't intended to prove that she is Native American, it was to prove that with some DNA ties to Native American, it lends as evidence that her mother was not lying to her about the stories she had heard and passed down to her. THAT is why Warren felt vindicated. If you think it was embarrassing for her to be happy about being 1/32nd Native American, then you weren't paying attention to the series of events that led to that test in the first place. And I continue to despise Meghan's lame debating skills. If you have to talk about having Native friends or black friends or poor friends or purple friends before sharing a thought, then your thought isn't strong to being with. Having friends of any background doesn't give your opinion any more credence so stop using it as some kind of crutch to suggest that your opinion is more informed than others...and I don't doubt for a second that is exactly why she constantly makes those references. And acting like the discussing the royals is some kind of treasonous and unpatriotic thing is so ridiculous that I laughed out loud at her comment while she pretended to pick at her nails.

She's not as bubbly as Sara but I think she's got a personable demeanour and I like the way she interacts with the other ladies. She's someone whose company I think I could enjoy, mainly because I think she's quite diverse in her interests and doesn't seem rude or mean spirited. Also, kudos to whoever decided to keep Joy on during the Charlotte Pence segment...'my dad was a truck driver', LOL. Edited October 17, 2018 by RHJunkie 19 Link to comment
fishsanwitt October 17, 2018 Share October 17, 2018 Thank you, RHJunkie, for your great post. I didn't want to quote the whole thing (because it's quite long) but I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment regarding Senator Warren. If only someone had shut The Aggrieved One up! 8 Link to comment
maggiemae October 17, 2018 Share October 17, 2018 OMG - never met anyone with so many friends as Meghan. However, had a nice conversation with a stranger yesterday. We're best-iest now. Not really. 13 Link to comment

backformore October 17, 2018 Share October 17, 2018 Hey all - I took a break from watching The View (work is busy) but watched today's episode late. Boy, Meghan has not changed - she irritated me a lot today. But, I was wondering - did she maybe get hair extensions? Her hair seems different, and she cannot stop playing with it, petting it. my favorite moment was when Meghan started to read statistics and facts off a blue card about Elizabeth Warren, and Whoopi pulls up a blue card and starts reciting contradictory facts and figures. 17 Link to comment

She puts herself forth as some Melanie Wilkes character, who is just sweet and thinks only sweet thoughts about everyone, but she's deceptive in a much more dangerous way than Meghan is. A red (hah) flag went up for me when Abby mentioned following Junior on Twitter. I guess Meghan does too.

She said that a couple days ago. Lack of DNA doesn't disprove an ancestry. It means those genetic markers might have been eliminated over the generations, especially if you are talking 4x greats. And the stupid comment that most white people have more NA DNA than EW is irrelevant. The question was does EW have a NA ancestor and she proved yes, yes she does.

Haleth October 17, 2018 Share October 17, 2018 Congrats to Meghan for winning the grand prize at the state fair. Thats what that ribbon badge is for, right? 18 Link to comment
GoldenGirl90 October 17, 2018 Share October 17, 2018 "But-but-but Obama/Clinton!" Nice job Meghan. I figured she'd find a way to get their names included eventually. 14 Link to comment
