Senate hopeful Shiva Ayyadurai called out his potential opponent Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) on Wednesday for lying about her Native American heritage, calling her a "fake Indian."


"I think only a real Indian can defeat a fake Indian," Ayyadurai told Fox Business host Stuart Varney.


Ayyadurai, who was born in Mumbai, India, will be running to unseat Warren in 2018. He has been very critical of Warren for claiming she is Native American, Mediaite reported.


Ayyadurai said he sent Warren a DNA test as a birthday gift in early July, along with a note reading, "Dearest Elizabeth, Happy Birthday! As a wise man once said, ‘To Thy Own Self Be True.' So what better gift than this to know WHO YOU truly are. Enjoy!"

Amusing but this kind of stuff usually doesn't play well in Massachusetts. We'll see how he does.

That is true. But recent polls have reported that Warren is on the ropes. She could lose this. And if she does, that would be a political nuclear bomb for the Democrat Party.
