After he called Warren “Pocahontas,” a local reporter shouted that she finds that offensive. Trump calls Warren "Pocahontas". Local ND reporter yells "that's very offensive". Trump says "ok". Then calls warren "Pocahontas" again. “She was able to get into various schools,” Trump alleged, saying that was because she applied as Native American. “I think she’s as Native American as I am.”

It would have been better if he’d called her Fauxchontas, though.

No it wouldn't. That works only in print. Trump speaks at a fourth grade level not because he has a fourth grade intelligence, but because he has to be understood in a sound bite by as many people as possible. People like us get the "Fauxcahontas" thing. The public at large doesn't. They DO understand that she's as native American as he is.

At least he didn't refer to her as Red Ryder's sidekick.

Did you ever do the trick with the Land O Lakes butter box? Cut along the top and sides of the box the indian is holding. Then fold the the bottom of the box backwards so her knees line up with the cutout. Open up the butter box and see the surprise.

I do wish he had used Fauxcahontas instead, but that’s a minor quibble.

Most Americans don't know who Pocahontas was. I think it's best for Trump to first call her Pocahontas...until all on America knows the name. Then switch to Fauxcahontas. And explain the difference.

Good! I like Trump more every day!

A reporter is a reporter, not a judge. Who did she think she is by dispending her opinion

Sorry, today's journalists are actually liberal activists. He's right, Pocahontas is not native American and everyone knows it.

[VaeVictis]

As a Native American, I find it insulting to Pocahontas that Lil’Lizzy Warren claimed to be a Native to advance her career. Down with the liar!

[Tzimisce]

A blond haired, blue eyed woman got hired and elected telling everyone she was an Indian and the press/ruling elite get mad at the guy calling bullshit?

Wow - it’s Tuesday in Obamaland. :)

“Trump says “ok”. Then calls warren “Pocahontas” again. “

This brings the biggest smile to my face. And to think I didn’t want this man within 6 feet of the Presidency 6 months ago.

“He’ll have PC on its heels in his first year!!”

Wiping out PC means wiping out most of the Liberalism virus in the USA. It is literally terrifying to the left. All of those years perfecting thought control wiped out by one DC outsider.

[Hotlanta Mike]

She’s not offended by Warren’s insults towards Trump now is she?

[Eddie01]

My response is always, “I’m offended you’re offended”.

[Down with the liar!]

Lying Liz

[mrs9x]

This is what will get Trump elected - the fact that he will not back down to the media. He is going to break out that she was paid $300,000 to teach one class at Harvard. He is setting it up. Warren picked the wrong Republican to go after.

And .. reporters acted the same way when it was discovered that Obama had applied as a “foreign student”, in order to get special grant money to go to college.

You guys have too much time on your hands. Lol

[Chode]

Oh WOe is me... why's everybody always pickin on me???
