President Trump slammed the Democratic lawmaker challenging Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.) on Saturday, dubbing Rep. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) "Wacky Jacky" in a fiery campaign speech.
Speaking at the Nevada state GOP convention, Trump attacked Rosen for campaigning with Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D), whom he again called the racially charged nickname "Pocahontas."
"[Heller's] opponent wants to raise taxes," Trump said, to boos. "She wants to raise taxes, think of it. I mean, it's ridiculous. Should I mention her name?"
Trump paused as the crowd egged him on to say the name. "I have a great nickname for her," Trump added. "Wacky Jacky. You don't want her as your senator."
"Wacky Jacky is campaigning with Pocahontas, you believe this? In your state!" he added.

Children, children.
Pretending to be an indian so you can benefit from affirmative action: Okay!
Mocking someone for that "cultural appropriation": Racially charged!
I am tuning this out. I will NOT vote for Heller. Sitting that out. I have not forgotten that he is pro-Amnesty, pro-Obamacare, etc. I don’t even think he supports the 2nd amendment. Trump can endorse him but that doesn’t mean I’ll forget these details. We’ve got enough RINO Never Trumpers to not keep this one.
LOL...go get em El Trumpo!
LIARwatha is more correct
Better to use “fake Indian.” More informative. And don’t disparage her good reputation among the citizens who know who she was.
It might be better if he backed off on the name calling. It is juvenile.
So you would rather have a Dim win the election …
After a quick search I have determined that these phrases can only be used to describe conservatives.
Please tell me you’re kidding. I can’t stand Heller either, but come on, Supreme Court!
Juvenile? The rats aren’t?
No it’s alinsky tactics and we’ve gotta start hitting them first.
Why is Pocahontas in and of itself racist?
People in NV, I fear, won’t be amused!
President Trump knows it riles them. He's taking advantage of their thin skins.
exactly..look what the mccains and romneys got us...its a whole different time in politics. Trump is showing how its done, like it or not.
Just wait until Trump re-engages on the Yucca Mountain project for permanent storage of spent nuclear fuel. Heller will scream like a little girl, in spite of the fact that this place is geologically correct and a mile underground and over a hundred miles from ANYWHERE a human would inhabit.
Harry Reid switched of Yucca with crooked means, it needs to be switched back on before Harry checks out to the forever smell of brimstone.
...whom he again called the racially charged nickname “Pocahontas...
I prefer Fauxcahontas.
