I guess you’re not familiar with the raids Cherokees carried out in what later became east Tennessee throughout the 18th and into the 19th century. Or you are familiar with it and just sweep it under the rug because it doesn’t fit your PC version of history.
Many patriots at the time opposed Jackson's Trail of Tears. Rep. David Crockett, whose grandparents had been murdered in an Indian raid before he was born, was Jackson's main public opponent in this. The Indians Jackson forced to move had long been abiding by a treaty, had grown civilized and prosperous, and were living under a tribal government modeled on our Federal one. It was a mystifying campaign by Jackson that was purely political in motivation.
Jackson's response to the controversy was to pour money into a campaign to unseat Crockett in Congress. Crockett lost, went to Texas, and died a hero at the Alamo.
