Drawing attention to Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s disputed claims of being a Native American minority, a conservative radio talk show host mocked the Massachusetts Democratic senator at a Wednesday rally for Donald Trump by doing a Native American war cry from the podium.

“You know Elizabeth Warren, right?” radio talker Howie Carr said at a Bangor, Maine rally before moving his hand over his mouth and doing an Indian war whoop.

Carr’s website refers to himself as “New England’s undisputed talk radio king.”

Trump also spoke during the Maine rally on Wednesday.

Earlier this week, Warren, a potential running mate on the Democratic ticket, appeared with Hillary Clinton at a campaign rally.

Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, has drawn attention to the past controversy over Warren’s ancestry claims by dismissively calling her “Pocahontas.”

During the 2012 campaign, it was revealed that Harvard Law School referred to her in publications as a Native American minority. Warren never produced evidence backing up her ancestry claim, saying she learned about it from family members.

Warren’s critics claim she falsely claimed minority status to get an unfair advantage in her career.

Former Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown, who lost to Warren in the 2012 Senate race, made news this week by suggesting the Democrat take a DNA test.

“As we all know, she’s not Native American,” Brown told reporters.
