It really is masterful how the President has mortally wounded Elizabeth Warren's presidential campaign. Here is his latest tweet:
"Today Elizabeth Warren, sometimes referred to by me as Pocahontas, joined the race for President. Will she run as our first Native American presidential candidate, or has she decided that after 32 years, this is not playing so well anymore? See you on the campaign TRAIL, Liz!"
By constantly referring to her as "Pocahontas", he's done several things:
1) First he has established and firmly entrenched the narrative on her, on her dishonestly, that she repeatedly lied about being an Indian. He even forced her to make a ridiculous promo-ad in which she paid an 'expert' to conduct a DNA test on her, which basically proved his assertion that she is NOT an Inidan.
2) He has established the narrative on Warren as a subject of ridicule. The leftwing media isn't used to this. THEY are the ones used to calling the shots to form public opinion. Trump has overridden them. The media's attempts to frame Trump as racist towards Indians or misogynistic have all failed. They would have brought down lesser men. The ridicule technique works especially well with Warren, because she's slightly goofy with her frequent and pious outrage. She's like the bitchy English teacher in 10th grade everybody hated.
3) Most importantly, Trump is using the Saul Alinsky method of ridicule AGAINST the Marxists. Said Alinsky:
“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. It is also
infuriating to the opposition, which reacts to your advantage, and there is no defense against it"
And this is exactly what Trump has done to the left and Warren. She's toast. Well done, Mr. President !

Whether you like Trump as POTUS or not, those are the words of a toolbag human being. He's a child. If you think ridicule is a tactic any POTUS should use, then I feel sorry for you and the human race in general.

I think you're upset because he used the left's technique against them.
Yes Trump is terrible, but he will make quick work of his equally bad opponents come election time and his ability to hurl insults is one reason why. Its the reality of politics and Trump doesnt care to pretend it isnt.

so you consider trump a total tool bag because he ridicules his opponents, but praise obama and clinton when they do the exact same thing? hypocrisy ring a bell to you? politicians have been ridiculing their opponents since the craft was created.
IMO, Ms. Warren has been a laughing stock for years. Trump had nothing to do with it, she did it to herself, quite well.
If she makes it through the Primary, I will not vote for her.
Oh, wait, since Montana is an open primary state, perhaps, just for gits and shiggles, I will vote for her in the primary. If she won, it might make the campaign fun to watch!
This should be a good thread for pop corn....because the people who are/will be attacking trump over this are probably the same people who praised pelosi with her clap at the SOTU......

Show where Obama labeled someone and called them what is meant to be a derogatory nickname based on race.

Trump is a total tool bag for multiple reasons. However this one is not necessarily one of them. This follows more in the line of buffoonery. Making light of someone else when you are a bigger idiot than they are.
