Sarah Sanders Was Asked If Trump’s ‘Pocahontas’ Comment Is Offensive

DC: President Trump referred to Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas” at a ceremony honoring Navajo code talkers on Monday. Trump has referred to the senator from Massachusetts often by that name, a reference to Warren’s dodgy history claiming native American heritage.

 

Trump said:

“I just want to thank you because you are very, very special people. You were here long before any of us were here,” Trump said. “Although, we have a representative in Congress who has been here a long time, longer than you, they call her Pocahontas!”

Warren responded to the President, saying “It is deeply unfortunate that the president of the United States cannot even make it through a ceremony honoring these heroes without having to throw out a racial slur.”

At Monday’s White House press briefing, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders was asked by a reporter why Trump felt the need to say something that is “offensive to many people ” at the ceremony. Sanders bluntly responded, “I think what most people find offensive is Senator Warren lying about her heritage to advance her career.”  more

  1. Someone needs to post a sticky note to DJT stacks of paperwork that it’s “FAUXahontas” not Pocahontas. It’ll quiet some of the outrage and would clarify the insult of fake Cherokee Liz much better.

  2. BTW, Illust8tr, thank you so much for the advice on the Microsoft Pro, sending that to the younger sister and surprising my older one with the pro book this Christmas. Great advise, Thank you!

  3. PDJT – get it right please (faux not poke).

    SHS – delightful young beautiful lady who doesn’t have a faux anywhere in her body (to pull a DJT).

    Warren – continue to eat faux crow and we’ll continue to poke you..

  4. Sarah has maybe a little too many false eyelashes and dark eye shadow, but y’know, she looks great, and the way she makes the press heel is priceless. I love her clothes too.

  5. THANK GOD SANDERS DIDN’T SCREW THIS UP!

    1. Go on the attack. Warren claims Native American ancestry, and it’s FALSE.

    2. No matter if there is evidence of Warren using her false minority claim to get jobs is TRUE OR NOT, you still work the cut, and make the liberals defend it.

    3. If Trump mocked a disabled reporter (which has been debunked over and over again) then Warren lied to get ahead. –Hey, you have your stories, we have ours.
