    I love political incorrectness.

    Everyone is so serious these days, just hoping to be offended.

    I'm a lot more concerned that Trump restarted DAPL despite the massive oil spill on another part of the Keystone pipeline, threatening indigenous people with death via neglect and contamination.

    Trump's policies are actually far worse than anything he says

    The Daily Shriek Out: Trump Refers to Elizabeth Warren as "Pocahantas" in Ceremony Honoring WW2 Navajo "Windtalker" Cryptologists

    I don't know why this is offensive, but apparently it's The Worst Thing since The Last Thing.

    "I just want to thank you because you are very, very special people. You were here long before any of us were here," Trump said. "Although, we have a representative in Congress who has been here a long time ... longer than you -- they call her Pocahontas!"

    I don't know why this is offensive. His joke is that Elizabeth Warren is not an Indian. He's not making fun of Indians; he's making fun of a caucasian playing Indian for diversity promotion reasons.

    This is obvious.

    This is being called a "slur" by DNC leader Tom Perez, because, well, Democrats are demagogues.

    Not only did Tom Perez call it a slur, but so did a more prominent Democrat spokesman:

    Fake News Jim:
    [​IMG]Jim Acosta

    ✔@Acosta

    WH press sec says "Pocahontas" is not a racial slur. (Fact check: it is.) https://twitter.com/acosta/status/935233803811016706 …

    12:30 PM - Nov 27, 2017 · Manhattan, NY

    Parts of the right can be expected to go into Eek-A-Mouse mode because they need to show their concern over things that are silly because liberals told them to.

    I guess the violation here is that you're not allowed to make jokey asides at a ceremony that's #SoSerious? But why is that a rule? Who said you can't be ironic and jokey at something that is inherently celebretary?

    Trump, This is why we love you!

    Campaigning BS is one thing, now representing the office and the country, inappropriate, unnecessary & demeans the ceremony. clearly shows he does not respect the vets being honoured for their service.

    If Trump said that I would laugh, not be offended at all. Trump was being offensive though with his language, though I won't be any more hurt over it than the offended groups.

    Senator Pocahonrats is a laughable example of political correctness and deserves to be made fun of

    But I’m afraid the old WWII code talkers did not know what trump was talking about

    And thus, you have part of the reason why his insult was so offensive.

    The reason Trump said is this because he is such a large whiny bitch of a snowflake that he can't even get through a ceremony honoring these heroes without calling out people who slighted him.

    That's why Trump was elected to serve in the White House, Trump ran on a platform of anti political correctness.

    Liberals and snowflakes are stuck in the 1960's and have to move on into the 21st Century.

    What offended groups, the Lilly White Folks who rob minority set-asides from women of color to benefit their own privileged lilly white asses?

    Clearly the is the most outrageous thing Trump has done since the last most outrageous thing he did!

    Racial appropriators are now the new offended group?

    Trump's going to get a lot more mileage out of this one!

    How about Creepy Uncle Joe The Groper/Fauxahontus the cultural appropriator for the Unity Ticket?
