(National Sentinel)Â Trolling the Troll: Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., claimed anew that President Donald J. Trump was being “racist” when he referred to her as “Pocahontas” during a meeting to honor Native American code-talkers during World War II.
Trump’s nickname for Warren is in reference to her claiming to be of Native American descent to get favored status when applying for previous positions with Ivy League schools like Harvard.
“You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas,” Trump said, which sent anger and resentment through Democratic lawmakers and liberal media outlets.
Now, one of the Navajo code talkers, Thomas Begay, broke his silence in defending the president.
“The Marines made us yell ‘Geronimo’ when we jumped out of planes and that didn’t offend me either,” he said, in response to Warren’s allegation that Trump used a “racial slur” against her.
