On average, the scientists found, people who identified as African-American had genes that were only 73.2 percent African. European genes accounted for 24 percent of their DNA, while .8 percent came from Native Americans.

Latinos, on the other hand, had genes that were on average 65.1 percent European, 18 percent Native American, and 6.2 percent African.

The researchers found that European-Americans had genomes that were on average 98.6 percent European, .19 percent African, and .18 Native American.

So average European American has .18% native American

She has anywhere from 1.56% to .098% native American in here.

So, uh, she is basically an average European American? = /

I guess I need to update my minority status on applications.


Just read something that says TRUMP may have more Native DNA than she does.

This is hysterical.


That seems implausible. Didnt his grandparents immigrate here?

From germany. And his mother was a scottish immigrant. He almost certainly has exactly 0 native american dna.

that's not how these DNA tests work


Explain

The DNA tests are a test of probability. Warren's test said there was a probability that she was 1/32 to 1/1024 Native American. 1/1024 falls on the low end of the confidence interval. That is such a low percentage that it is entirely possible that Trump's test would reveal a similar genetic makeup on the high end of his confidence interval, even if it doesn't make logical sense. That's how small Warren's Native ancestry is.


Didnt the test say she assuredly has a Native American ancestor 6 to 10 generations back?

Theres literally no way Trump can say the same.
