Trump: Calling Warren Pocahontas ‘an insult to Pocahontas’

By Olivia Beavers - 06/25/17 11:23 AM EDT

President Trump said Sunday that when he calls Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) "Pocahontas," it is an insult to the renowned Native American woman.

"She's a hopeless case. I call her Pocahontas, and that's an insult to Pocahontas," Trump said in an interview with Pete Hegseth on "Fox and Friends," adding that Warren is "a highly overrated voice."

Trump has repeatedly used "Pocahontas" as an insult on the campaign trail to refer to Warren's claims about her Native American heritage.

Similarly, Trump previously said that it is an "insult to Pocahontas."

“I do regret calling her Pocahontas, because I think it’s a tremendous insult to Pocahontas,” he said on Fox News in June 2016. "So, to Pocahontas, I would like to apologize to you.”
