You feel they are a victim, they feel honored. That's the problem.
Who's virtue are you checking here?

I believe 1/16 (one great grandparent) is the lowest bar to claim Native American heritage accepted by any tribe. Some require 25% to be recognized.

Trump should NEVER have disrespected the Windtalkers with his inappropriate remarks. But, neither should Warren with her false claims.

It's not embarrassing anymore -- it's expected. He's a child.

Thank you, folks.

Every decent person on the planet realizes what Trump said yesterday was inappropriate and pretty racist.

However, unfortunately, most Trump supporters are not decent people, and still love the Orange, tanned man.

Trump supporters represent the worst of America.

Nope, I had an ex that was 1/16th Choctaw, also originally from Oklahoma coincidentally, and our BIA Health Center here in Phoenix treated both her and her daughter (who was 1/32) free of charge

Again -- the diverting works. Trump fans don't focus on how inappropriate it was for Trump to use the opportunity to attack someone personally -- particularly using a racial slur to do so -- while he is suppose to be honoring these men for their contributions. It wasn't the right place or time for any kind of an attack -- it wasn't about Trump it was about these guys.

I know some people are starting to think Trump is doing this purposely so we talk about this rather than the tax plan that is riddled with disaster for most Americans. I don't think he is that clever.

Too funny..... everyone on the loony left is thinking for the code talkers, but no one has asked them how they feel....
The laughter told the story of the feelings in the room and the standing O, was just for looks.

Plus you are wrong. She didn't tell her employers until after she was hired. How is that using anything for personal gain?

What's totally inappropriate is our embarrassment of a President being allowed to talk in public.
You people still can't grasp this. Getting you and the Leftist Media lapdog's heads to explode is all that matters!

This.


And since when is "Pocahontas" a slur?


Good God! Racist/racial sword throwers need to get a different life. This one isn't working for them. They're too damned dumb to know we're laughing at them.
