Trump, honoring Navajos, revives 'Pocohontas' jab at Warren
trump just blew the newscycle to mars. again.
Quote:Trump, honoring Navajos, revives 'Pocohontas' jab at Warren
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump used an event honoring Native American veterans Monday to take a shot at Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren, whom he has long derided as "Pocahontas."
Trump welcomed three Navajo code talkers from World War II to the Oval Office. He called them "incredible" and "very special people."
And then he added: "We have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas. But you know what, I like you."
The Republican president has repeatedly mocked the Massachusetts senator for claims she has made about being part Native American.

Something big is about to happen.
I've come to realize that Trump ( like a bad comedian) will go back to the same old joke if something bad is about to happen.
Over the break, he went after the NFL again, right before Flynn flipped.
Now this.
Another domino may be about to fall.

it's much more likely that in a day or two, adam schiff will have to admit that he fondles little boys. I mean, if recent events are any indicator.

I'm sure the American heros whose sacrifice he was there to honor really appreciated his hamfisted attempt at belittling a political opponent in order to score points for his political base.

I agree with this. I wish ALL POLITICIANS would stop trying to use tragedies and/or award ceremonies to score cheap political points.

IMHO, Trump is not a genius for taking swipes like that when he is supposed to be honoring the service of these Navajos. I believe people who want to see the swamp drained and bipartisan cooperation (i.e. the majority of us) will be turned off by it. If he makes Warren look bad by doing this, the victory will be Pyrrhic.

I get it that he's trying to burn it to the ground. However...Pyrrhic. On a personal level Trump is not well liked by a large group of people - most clearly by the independents who are the only ones who are actually up for grabs. As long as the Dems continue to operate in the mode that they are today...he can burn to his hearts content and keep getting 1st and 2nd degree burns as he doles out 3rd degree burns to those he's scorching.
IF he cannot deliver those good quality middle class jobs, IF the stock market gains become more tepid, IF that inevitable corrections comes in the near future, IF a Dem figures out how to change the tone in order to appeal to independents, IF we fall into another recession due to challenges in the world economy (hint: China's economy is built on a house of cards)... any combination of a small number of these "what ifs" and Trump will be toast.
If the economy roars and we don't experience multiple acts of terror on our soil...none of this will matter. NONE OF IT. That means the swamp isn't getting drained either... I'm highly cynical that the swamp will ever get drained tbh, but at least Trump "appears" to be trying (when he's not rigging policy to favor his holdings)...
