Trump TWEET of the DAY

Fletch said:
So Warren is just one in a long family tree filled with liars.
Click to expand...

according to my late Mother, I am 1/32 Cherokee Indian from my Mom's side of the family

Do I have any proof of this claim my Mother made on multiple occasions, all of which were spoken many decades ago? No, I do not ...........

Do I have any Native American Indian ancestry? I don't know but I do know that our current POTUS has utilized this term for Warren on many occasions & continues to do so.

POTUS Trump is doing nothing more than to demonstrate to the world at large that he is petty, divisive, childish, does not possess the decorum, nor the respect for the office that he alone holds, and is by & large pretty much a 70 year old jackass acting like a 9 year old bully.

That is just the kinda guy you want in possession of the US nuclear codes; yep ..............
 
His behavior here is nothing new. He's referred to Warren as Pocahontas countless times during his election campaign and since he has taken office.

His overall twitter actions really must be a YUGE embarrassment to his supporters. Surely they must be getting sick of it all. Too much childish nonsense. Try using his Twitter account to work towards uniting the Country.

With Trump, that will NEVER happen. Trump understands that for HIM it is easier to be an adversary than to be a cooperative element. Also, this is where Trump appeals to his base, an element that feels betrayed, a base that is by nature adversarial, and an element that is ready for a fight.

This is the 'element' that OUR nation is currently infected with; it is a strong, menacing disease.

Trump has yet to figure out that he's not a third world dictator. He doesn't understand the limits of state power.

Don't think that he believes himself to be one. What tangible evidence, that's not opinion BTW, do you have that he is behaving like a "third world dictator"?

He has repeatedly shown that he doesn't understand the limits of his power. He promised to do on "day one" a number of things, such as repeal Obama Care, that were simply not in his power to do. He also talked about changing liable laws so that it would be easier for him to sue news organizations. He didn't understand that liable laws are state laws, not federal. He was angry at Jeff Sessions for recusing himself from the Russia investigation. He doesn't understand the independence of the justice department or the role of ethics in the rule of law. He's not a dictator, but he'd like to be one. He wants to be a "strong leader" just like Putin.

And that makes him a "third world dictator" in your mind does it?

It's not racist to call her Pocahontas. It's mocking a lie that she, a white woman, told in order to attempt to get preferential treatment in getting into college. Mockery =/= racism.

Yes it is racist to call Warren by that name and that is why it is done. There is no evidence that Warren ever told a lie about what she was told and believed was her ancestry and heritage.

It is amazing how very public and open racism has become since Trump decided to use American society as his public toilet.

It's not a racist comment, lol. Obviously, you're ill-informed as to why that name was put on Warren. If anyone is being racist, or at least exploiting a race of people, it's Warren.
 
Kal'Stang said:
If you called a black guy "uncle remus" he would probably be offended since Uncle Remus is a fictional character about a black on in southern plantations. Though they might not be offended either since the character often played dirty tricks on plantation owners.

In either case your question is not an equivalent one. Your question is about a black man being referred to as another black man. Warren on the other hand lied about being a Native American in order to attempt to get preferential treatment in admittance to ivy league schools. Two totally different scenarios.

Where is any evidence that Warren lied about what she believed about her family ancestry from being told my family members?

Yes - it a racist comment and we see right here in its use that the right wing does not like to be deprived of its ugly weapons.

Your refusal to give an answer demonstrates clearly that even you who wants to pretend otherwise recognize the clear racism in calling Warren by that name.

Your questioned is dumb and irrelevant. If you want that question asked, start a new thread about it as it doesn't apply here.

No it does not! Your spinning a question that has zero relation to the discussion so you can blow your racist dog loud and long
and claim racism because you have nothing else. We see that over and over. Get a small clue that does not work anymore! ;)

The irony of your first sentence is simply astounding.

Leftists are more worried about the facts around a woman that lied about being an Indian to exploit special opportunities reserved for Indians than they are about the woman that lied about being an Indian to exploit special opportunities reserved for women.

Trumps use of the word 'Pocahontas' to describe Warren is wrong and inappropriate. The correct term is 'Fauxcahontas'. She is as fake an Indian as is Ward Churchill.

She believed her oral family history as most people do. But sometimes oral history is wrong.

I'm not a leftist & I'm not worried about blah blah blah .............. I am concerned that we have a POTUS that constantly demonstrates he is an imbecile ............

what I am worried about is that imbecile wants to destroy the planet with his new found stash of nukes

You can quibble whether it was a known lie or not if you'd like. But it is still a lie. One that she continued even after people started showing that she was not NA claiming "“I’m not backing off from my family". Elizabeth Warren: “I’m not backing off from my family” on Cherokee claim Even insinuating that it was the Boston Herald that was lying by saying "The Boston Herald is The Boston Herald, what can I say … It has its own point of view and it’s going to drive its own point of view…"

Neither here nor there and has nothing to do with this thread. Besides, most Native Americans have no problem with the word "Redskins". In point of fact it was Native Americans that first coined the term.
