7. That is a FANTASTIC idea!

Why on earth haven’t they already done that?! Our side has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to smart funny people.

8. I met comedian Mort Sahl

in the late 80s backstage at a charity benefit comedy show. I talked to him for quite awhile. He told me that in the early 60s the Kennedy family paid him to write jokes for them. Specifically JFK. So it's not a new idea, but it is a very good one.

10. A person with no money

Per Urban Dictionary, a "brokeahontas" is a term used to describe a person that is always unable to go anywhere or do anything because they don't have any money. Often used in a snide way when referring to a person that consistently uses lack of money as an excuse for not going out.

The term is being used to describe Trump's status as a billionaire in reverse, per Bill Maher on Twitter.

23. I don't get a lot of stuff around here as well

The Brokeahontis Is new nic-name for donald in response to his insults to Elizabeth Warren constantly calling her Pocahantas The way I see it

[Irishxs]

29. And his big billion $$ loss.

12. How do Native Americans feel about the reference to Pocahontas in this context? n/t

[catbyte]

13. This Ojibwe is not amused.

[pnwmom]

15. That's what I would think. Thanks for commenting.

Bill Maher sometimes crosses the line and this is one of those times.

[dumbcat]

17. That doesn't matter

as long as we think it's cute. (It's sad I had to put that there.)

Imagine our reaction if the Rethugs had come up with something like that. Sometimes I wonder about us.

[hughee99]

24. That was my thought as well. I guess this is only offensive for some

When it’s directed at someone they like.

[robbob]

25. It IS turnabout for dump referring to Sen. Warren as Pocahontas,

So it’s turning his own bigotry against him, but I don’t know if that makes it any less offensive to other Native American people...

[WhiskeyGrinder]

26. "but I don't know if that makes it any less offensive to other Native American people..."

It doesn't.

[pnwmom]

31. It's just as offensive to Native Americans to have the name of Pocahontus mocked by D's

as it is when mocked by R's.

[Pepsidog]

14. Love it. That's a kick in the nuts.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

16. Ha ha! Using the name of a victim of rape, kidnapping and colonization back at the president will

TOTALLY own him! YEAH!

[pnwmom]

18. Sadly, you might need the sarcasm emoji,

because some people seem to think that.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

21. It's heartbreaking. People just don't think things through.

[UniteFightBack]

22. This is hysterical!!! Keep retweeting !! nt
