Trump Just Sent Racist Tweet About ‘Pocahontas’ Elizabeth Warren — Twitter is Furious
Tomorrow will be the 24th day of the government shutdown and you would think our “president” would be huddling with advisers trying to find a way to get the government back open so 800,000 federal employees can get paid. RIGHT?
NOPE.
Trump is instead on Twitter, slamming two rivals.
First, he called Jeff Bezos, “Jeff Bozo” and reveled in the fact the National Enquirer spent months digging up dirt about Bezos’ love life and reported mistress.
But of course, Trump wasn’t done yet.

He also returned to a campaign favorite, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who is running for President in 2020.
He called her Pocahontas and said this about her announcement video, which he called a commercial: “If Elizabeth Warren, often referred to by me as Pocahontas did this commercial from Bighorn or Wounded Knee instead of her kitchen, with her husband dressed in full Indian garb, it would have been a smash!”

The president — who has been at the White House all weekend — also posted a video of Warren’s admittedly awkward at home video which starts with her saying she is going to get a beer before she announces that she is establishing an exploratory committee for her 2020 run, a legal first step to candidacy.
That video, by the way, came out on New Year’s Eve, making it unclear why Trump decided to tweet on it now.
UPDATE:
Trump continued his rant with this, “Best line in the Elizabeth Warren beer catastrophe is, to her husband, “Thank you for being here. I’m glad you’re here” It’s their house, he’s supposed to be there!”

Stop making racist tweets. She is an American just like you.

Trump is a racist who uses bigoted language and slurs that deeply hurt Native Americans. This is a complete disgrace to the White House and the presidency.

Are you inhaling fumes from the old Big Mac boxes piling up and decomposing in your room? You are a disgrace. And a traitor. And a racist. And a pig. And demented. Resign.
