Disrespect to Indians... that’s a stretch.
Consider a different case—Rachel Dolezal. Is pointing out her identification disprespect to Black people, or to her?
To: antidemoncrat
Did she run on the American Indian ticket?

Seriously, every campaign group we have should be doing anything it can to get its hands on some of Warren’s DNA to have it tested.

Takes advantage of “affirmative action programs and pretends to be a Native American, yet somehow finds other people show disrespect?

OK, Senator Snarling Beaver.
To: antidemoncrat
I find Trump’s use of the name Pocahontas mystifying since her real name is Fauxahontas.

I agree.
Trump should start calling her Fauxcahontas and explain the joke/meme via Twitter.
