I would like to hear Nick’s take on the “both sides” bs surrounding the MAGA teens too, and I don’t think Nick was too quick to condemn or respond.

I’m tired of schooling non-natives, too, Nick.

BTW Nick-Elizabeth Warren using this Splinter article to draw attention to her Twitter feed is exactly why this Laguna will never vote for her. It’s the free-speech equivalent of wearing a war bonnet to Coachella.

I think this was his plan all along. If he wins this he proves to his base that he is a master deal-maker

yeah that’s why these MAGA idiots are pulling this shit. They. Are. Terrified. 

yeah as a Native a lot of this shit makes me laugh it’s so comically ignorant. When they make an elder cry, though, that makes me angry. 

right? that would make me and all my relatives laugh out loud

Boy, it sure takes a lot of guts for a gang of teenagers to target an old man. Their Vietnam Draft-deferred grandfathers would be proud.

Feminist credentials pulled, Garofolo. 

I’m excited to see him run. Don’t know much about him, but I’m looking for representation in this election, and for me he fits-his story is similar to mine.

This over-hyping of a freshman congresswoman is getting a little tiring, but I was impressed with her interview. I hope she sticks around. 

dude Europeans just came over here to get rich and to be able to do whatever they want without getting caught. 

I usually volunteer for the Democratic nominee for president. I can’t and I won’t be doing that if Warren becomes the Democratic candidate. I’m not even sure I will bother voting if she becomes our candidate. There is no way I am going to make calls or canvass in Indian Country and try to explain to our grandmothers…

My offer to make 10 (i think it was 10) calls to Warren’s primary challenger(s) for every comment I read defending her stupid DNA stunt still stands. I’m counting!

I feel like Medicare for All IS a centrist position.

I’m crying

you are a national treasure. 

Maybe we need start a vigilante group like the gulabi gang in India. Maybe that will work until lawmakers start taking violence against women seriously?

Thanks so much for this article. Great to hear even more Native voices on GMG, and I’m sorry for what you have been through as a Native and a tribal member.

I don’t give a shit if he doesn’t meet your progressive litmus test. Can. he. win.
