The man can't extend a little dignity to Native Americans who served in WWII without making it some kind of attack against his political opponents and insulting those he is supposed to honoring.

What a moron.
This.

He used an event to honor veterans to attack a political rival. Gross.

Of course it worked, as now the discussion is about Warren, not Trump, the foolish tax bill, the coup d'état at CFPB, etc Distraction tactic.
And, ah, ...with good reason....!

This bitch has used the claim of being "native American" to further her career. She stated the so-called 'fact' often in her Senate campaign.
"Vote for me...! I'm one of the 'oppressed'...!" She did this from the very start of her career. The term 'Pocahontas' is a great way to point out this crappola. This was hardly mentioned in ANY of the news accounts on the subject. Fake news...? Oh, you betcha.

In a report by CNN from the summer of 2016, they document just how dubious Warren’s claims of Native-American heritage were. “Warren says, yes, she is, and points to ‘family stories’ passed down to her through generations as evidence,” wrote Gregory Krieg. “In that account and others, a genealogist traced Warren's Native American heritage to the late 19th century, which, if true, would make her 1/32 Native American. (However, the legitimacy of those findings has been debated.)”

The CNN piece actually noted how The Washington Post’s fact checkers had thrown up their hands and gave up trying to figure out if Warren’s claims were accurate.

Krieg also reported how the Senator had benefited professionally from people believing she was Native-American. “Harvard Law School in the 1990s touted Warren, then a professor in Cambridge, as being ‘Native American,’” he continued. “They singled her out, Warren later acknowledged, because she had listed herself as a minority in an Association of American Law Schools directory.”

The right continues to alienate Americans along racial-ethnic lines, simply to distract attention away from the fact the GOP can intimidate but it can't legislate.

And the left continues to bring in millions of illegal immigrants, which somehow always seem to find their way onto the voting lists, and push "Democrat" 90% of the time.

That’s Leftism. Pretending to be a different race to get votes is wonderful, but don’t you dare call them out on it, you racist!
That would be an excellent point, except she never made her believed Native American ancestry part of her campaign. It was dug up by "opposition research" by people going through her college records.
Do you hear yourself?

Elizabeth Warren has absolutely nothing to do with the Code Talkers and an event to honor them should not have turned into an opportunity take potshots at Trump's political rival.

Only a real asshat dishonors those who have sacrificed so much to help the nation so he can play a stupid game of political one-ups-man-ship.

To call Warren Pocahontas is really not a slur. Pocahontas is one of several Native American women who welcomed the white men. Think of Sacagawea and La Malinche if you know New World history. In any event, Sen. Warren is not treating Trump the way Pocahontas allegedly treated John Smith and certainly not the way she treated John Rolfe. The comparison is absurd. Pocahontas was an international celebrity aristocrat, far above Donald Trump in fame and class. Trump seems to know less than the Disney movie tale and to think he is insulting Warren because he believes all Native Americans are his inferior. Pathetic and disgusting at the same time. What ignorant fools admire this guy?

Wait, let me get this straight.

A white woman claiming she is an Indian without a shred of proof, is praised by leftists in the name of diversity.

A white women claiming she is Black, even though her white parents have no genes with dark skin pigment is also praised by leftists.

Trump made a Pocahontas joke aimed at a white woman, leftists go berserk.
He has made that Pocahontas comment numerous times. And most of the time, it just goes right on by and nobody gives a damn.

Here, however, he had to insert into a speech that was intended to honor WWII era Native Americans for their service where it was completely inappropriate.

It's not that he took a shot at Elizabeth Warren, that's pretty much expected. It's that he did it at a time and at a place where such comments were not in keeping with the intention of the event.

But you don't have a problem with people who claiming to be someone they are not just so they can further their career at the expense of those people they are claiming to be?
Kate Steinle was separated from her family permanently but leftists didn't seem to mind.

So why, do you think, did Trump feel it was important to bring up Elizabeth Warren at an event intended to honor Native American veterans of WWII? How was she relevant? How did it honor those that were supposed to be honored? Why couldn't he have saved that comment for just about anywhere else and any other time?

I'll tell you why he felt it was important. Because the only thing Donald Trump knows about Native Americans is that at one time Elizabeth Warren claimed to have a Native American ancestor and he thinks it's clever to call her Pocahontas.

The man is a moron and an asshat.

The usual ^^^ bigoted and factually incorrect racist filth. You make a fool of yourself with this childish nonsense. You are a college man, MSW by your own account, who reads the news. Why not use your ability and your knowledge to explain and defend the conservative movement which seems to mean a lot to you instead of posting this sort of graffiti? Is it so important to you to demean those with whom you disagree? Are you willing to be viewed with contempt by your peers for the thrill of writing insults in hopes of getting a laugh? People don't laugh with the class clown, they laugh at him. What is wrong with you?

George, why bother?

These are trump trolls. There's no point engaging in conversation or pointing out the fact that they're pond scum

They know it. They're proud of being low-lifes, this is their moment. They finally get to unzip their flys and wave their bigoted tallywackers in public because Trump can do it too

This is their last hurrah before they head for that final nursing home destination, where they become a problem only to the staff
