2. The answer may be in Paul Simon's "The Boxer" . . .

All lies and jest, still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.

8. Here's the deal

I am mot trying to smear anyone. I am saying that the way Trump (mis) treated Native Americans, wildlife, and the environment, I don’t see how one can possibly tolerate him. She should know better!

16. The Cherokee folks in NC and OK are almost always GOP for some reason

Especially the people in NC. I have never understood it.

24. But then the OP asked "how is this possible"?

The connection is that a "half Cherokee" would NEVER be a Trump supporter.

26. Not all Natives live in reservations.

The Cherokee are a wide-spread peoples; many have lived in both black and white communities for generations from the Virginias and Carolinas to Oklahoma. Many were able to "pass" and managed to assimilate into white society by taking on "acceptable" last names such as Fox, Gibb, or Lane.

Just because someone is full, half or quarter NA doesn't mean they follow tribal practices or philosophies.

Sorry to hear whenever an old friend is found to be either shallow, fearful, or gullible enough to become a Trumper, no matter what background they originally came from.

Anybody remember Ben Nighthorse Campbell, first elected as a Democrat U.S. Senator from Colorado in 1992?  A full-blooded Cherokee.

In 1995, tired of the lies and duplicities of the Democrat party, he switched to Republican and remained so to the end of his career.

Also, there was Charles Curtis, a full-blood who became the first--and thus far only--Native American vice-president, under Herbert Hoover in 1928.  Republican.

According to their messiah, you ain't black if you vote for Trump.

My cousin's wife, who is full- blooded Canadian First- Nation, is a fellow Republican.
She's long since seen through all the shallow lies and BS the Left regularly preaches.
