Trump to Dems: 'Pocahontas is now the face of your party'

By Phil Mattingly and Ted Barrett, CNN

Updated 10:01 PM ET, Fri February 10, 2017

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump taunted Democrats by telling them "Pocahontas is now the face of your party" -- his insult of choice for Sen. Elizabeth Warren -- during a meeting with senators earlier this week, sources told CNN.

The President also used the Thursday meeting at the White House to again surface unfounded claims of voter fraud during the 2016 presidential election.

The sources said the Warren moment came up in the context of the Trump's impromptu analysis of the state of the Democratic Party. Trump made his comments in what appeared to be a reference to Warren's criticism of Attorney General Jeff Sessions during his confirmation process. Her comments prompted Republicans to invoke an arcane rule to cut her off.

The moment galvanized Democrats and has elevated Warren's standing among progressives. Trump used his pejorative campaign nickname for Warren -- a reference to her claims of having Native American ancestry -- several times during the meeting, which one source described as "equal parts bizarre and completely awkward."

At one point, Trump said the only reason Warren claimed Native American heritage was "because she has high cheekbones," one of the sources said.

Laughter is the best medicine. This gal needs to get off the stage. She is an insult to the Indians of this country. Nothing but a shill for $$$$ and notoriety.

Wasn’t Warren claiming to be Native American a classic case of the cardinal sin of Cultural Appropriation?? I haven’t heard a peep out of the regressive left on this.

Every time I see the Salem Witch (fauxcahantas/liawatha) I notice the circle flies around her.

Today’s Poem:

The Song of Liawatha

(With Apologies to Longfellow!)

By The shores of the Potomac
By the shining big-butt Congress
Stood the Prius of Liawatha
Also known as Faux-ca-hontas.
By the shores of River Charlie,
Entered Hallowed Halls of Harvard,
Checked the box that said “Native”
Steal job from some other libtard.
See an opportunity awaiting
Must get herself a new appointment
Scott Brown’s star is quickly fading,
‘Cuz he’s been a disappointment.
Time to raise the casks and flagons,
Time to spike the fire-water
Time to Circle Liberal wagons,
Time to elect Nikomis’ Daughter!
Liawatha won the day then,
But she really Dindu Nuffin.
What’s a few votes from Granery Hill?
What’s wrong with some ballot stuffin’?
Liawatha lies like bearskin,
Covering up the Tee Pee Floor,
Fauxcahontas speaks with tongue of serpent,
But we all knew that months before.
Liawatha reads a letter,
From the widow of a King,
But the White Man do her better.
Tells her she can’t say a thing.
Fauxcahontas speaks with the tongue,
Forked and dipped in a poison cup.
But we knew that we have won,
When they told Liawatha to SHUT UP.

I think that it is wrong to shame name her with this name calling, using the name of a very noble person to paint her with an image.

In this instance, I have to say that it is wrong.

Fauxcohontas, yes

Crazy Whorse, yes

Etc.....

“Pocahontas”.....no. Very bad

DJT is marginalizing the Nomenklatura.
The Nomenklatura is getting snippy.
Think DJT = Gov. Petomaine
Warren = Hedley Lamarr

OK, I’m a closet Trotskyite

An “arcane rule”. Just like that silly thou shalt not steal rule. So arcane. When it’s something they like, such as the fillibuster, when Republicans are in power, then it’s a long standing tradition. Fake News!

I agree - Pocahontas is my traceable ancestress and her name is not a joke — I would prefer you use Fauxcohontas or something similar

Who the F are they to say claims of voter fraud are unfounded?
