Trump flatly and falsely denies ever promising he'd donate $1m if @SenWarren could prove she's Native American, as she now has: "Who cares? I didn't say that. Nope, you better read it again." https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/411403-warren-reminds-trump-he-offered-1-million-if-she-proved-her-native-american
Trump: I would offer Warren $1M to prove her Native American heritage
https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/395728-trump-i-would-offer-warren-1-million-to-prove-her-native-american
I promise you Ill do this, you know those little kits they sell on television for $2? Learn your heritage, Trump said.
Im going to get one of those little kits and in the middle of the debate, when she proclaims shes of Indian heritage because her mother said she has high cheekbones, thats her only evidence," Trump continued.
We will take that little kit, we have to do it gently because were in the "Me Too" generation, we have to be very gentle, Trump said mocking the movement that seeks to expose sexual misconduct in media, entertainment and politics.
We will very gently take that kit and we will slowly toss it, hoping it doesnt hit her and injure her arm, even though it only weighs probably 2 oz, he said.
And we will say, I will give you a million dollars, paid for by Trump, to your favorite charity if you take the test and it shows youre an Indian, Trump said. And well see what she does. I have a feeling she will say no but we will hold it for the debates.

OP
The media in the US is often a joke. Often the media supports those who they think will somehow

Sadly, it's a brainwashed population and far too many Americans still don't IMO comprehend what is

Didn't he sue Bill Maher over a similar fake pledge by Maher. She should take him to court.
