TRANSLATION: In fact, it wasn't offensive to anyone. No on has said he was offended, except for fanatic leftists whose entire lives are centered around finding things to be offended over.
But we'll keep repeating it over and over, in hopes that people will believe it, and it will become The Truth. Our mentor said it would!
TRANSLATION: Anyone with half a brain knows that a ceremony to honor native American Vets is NOT the place to call someone racial names.
Really, it's something most of learned in say . . third grade . . but seems to have escaped the Trumplets. Trump cannot even make it through one ceremony in any kind of dignified manner without making it about himself.
Or else - his brain just makes on the spot connections => Native Americans in front of me = Pocahontas.
OR . . perhaps he was just throwing some red meat to his Steve Bannon, white nationalist base. Just so they know he wasn't cozying up to any non-white Americans in order not to cheese them off.
Many white Americans have Native American ancestry, it is more common than most people realize. Most Hispanic Americans have as well. I do too. It is not always traceable in the public record.
Has there been any proof that she definitely has no native American ancestry? Mr Trump is famous for deriding others in a baseless and tasteless way, and also quite a prolific liar. No social graces whatever ... it is very telling when he should be honoring our warriors and still finds a way too make a political jab for his own benefit instead of focusing on his guests of honor.
Reporter and writer Joshua Green met Thomas Begay, one of the code talkers honored Monday, on his way out of Washington, D.C. Green asked him about the event. Begay said he was “puzzled” about the comment but not offended.
Then Begay dropped a very non safe-space one liner:
“The Marines made us yell ‘Geronimo’ when we jumped out of planes and that didn’t offend me either.”
I think maybe someone reporting here doesn't know many Native Americans. Not being offended doesn't mean they liked it.

When in doubt, check it out: FAQ
Didn't Mr. Trump also claim Native ancestry? Why did he refer to that 90 year olds' 'good genes' and then say that the press would have him around for a long time? Sounds like he was implying such.
Remember how Mr. Trump, in his first book, The Art of the Deal, claimed Swedish ancestry rather than admit German? True, he was repeating what his father had claimed, just like Ms. Warren was repeating what her parents said.
Marco Rubio claimed he was the son of Cuban exiles. Cept that his parents were permanent residents of the US when the Castro thing hit the fan. He attributed the discrepancy to his family's oral history.
There is no way to prove or disprove Warren's ansestory
Warren does not owe $ billions to US and foreign banks. Unlike Trump, she has no reason to protect banks, quid pro quo. The public will never know when or why Deutche Bank renegotiated a massive loan to Trump Org and how many basis points they discounted.
Many banks took advantage of people's ignorance and greed and put them into mortgages they could never repay upon reset of the adjustable rate. If only consumer ignorance and greed could be contained to said individual. Instead, it impacted everyone's home value in the neighborhood and well beyond.

Say what lol? It's on HER to prove her claims, not on anyone else to disprove it. Where do you people get your ideas from?
