Pocahontas?

[HAB911]

Pocahontas just stated that the Democrats, lead by the legendary Crooked Hillary Clinton, rigged the Primaries! Lets go FBI & Justice Dept.

1. That would be Warren

Remember his obsession with her over her initial statement concerning Native American heritage?

It's Donald being racist again and intimidated by strong women.

[HAB911]

2. Yes I know it's Warren

and it's blatantly racist and sexist

[Arkansas Granny]

6. Since being racist and sexist has never bothered Trump (or many of his supporters) before,

I'm not surprised to hear him use these remarks against Senator Warren like he has in the past. He revels in this type of behavior. It's like the 3 year old who is always acting out because he gets attention when he does so.

[HAB911]

15. No, but it is a TOS infraction

Welcome aboard, hope you last!

[HAB911]

19. I have to say

that's the funniest thing I've heard today!

[hatrack]

39. You'd best toughen your delicate skin if intending on staying . . .

Or you could leave.

16. Stonekettle said it best

I've just taken to immediately blocking libertarians as soon as they appear.

Russian trolls are more reasonable.

20. Do you or do you not demur from that observation?

Scroll downthread to the person calling the POTUS a shitstain and get back to me with those clutched pearls.

Do you or do you not demur from that observation?


Thank you in advance.

3. Republicans do nothing but spew crying and lies about Warren

.... all you ever see on social media when her name comes up are the mindless GOP sycophants shrieking about "Pocahontas" or "Liawatha." Non-stop crying and lies from these people based on their shrill, hysterical accusation that she lied when listing Native American heritage on her college application.

It turned out Warren really did have a measure of Native American heritage, but these people don't care in the least about facts. They're still screaming their dear little heads off that Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet.

It's so touching to see their concern about things like truth, given the fact they mindlessly believe the nonstop lies issuing from the mouth (or fingers) of the orange shitgibbon.

[Marengo]

12. Has she provided irrefutable proof of her NA heritage? Last I heard what had been was...

Controversial at best.

[mreilly]

21. This article covers it...

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/05/elizabeth-warren-is-part-native-american/

"Now the Herald has some actual substance on the candidate’s claims: Warren’s great-great-great grandmother on her mother’s side was Cherokee, making Warren—provided the genealogist didn’t miss anything—1/32 Native American if her great-great-great grandmother was full-blooded (that’s unclear).

Warren has said that both of her mother’s parents had American Indian blood, in which case the fraction would obviously be a little bit bigger. (It’s plausible that some of Warren’s relatives would have masked their Cherokee heritage, given the legally prescribed second-class citizenship bestowed upon American Indians for much of the 20th century.)

Per newspaper clippings released by her campaign, other members of Warren’s family, including a first cousin, have embraced their Cherokee roots and are active in American Indian causes in Oklahoma, where she grew up."

[Proud Liberal Dem]

26. Asking for proof of her statement IMHO

almost seems akin to demanding Barack Obama's birth certificate to "prove" that he is an American citizen eligible to be POTUS. Do people regularly claim NA for special benefits/advantages or something?

[Not Ruth]

33. Exactly, it is like asking for voter ID, asking is only meant to disenfranchise

[Proud Liberal Dem]

40. That too!

[Jim Lane]

53. Your question relates to how the attack was used in her Senate campaign

You ask, "Do people regularly claim NA for special benefits/advantages or something?" The Republicans seized on that idea and argued that she had falsely claimed Native American ancestry so as to get an "affirmative action" type appointment to the Harvard Law faculty that she wouldn't have gotten otherwise.

The facts are that she identified herself as part-Native for purposes of a faculty directory. She explained that she was interested in meeting anyone else with a similar heritage. The important fact is that the issue of her ancestry played no role in Harvard's decision to hire her; she was already a distinguished scholar in her field.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

31. That's beside the point. It's a slur on Native Americans.

[flakey_foont]

4. What an embarrassment!

Most parents would scold their 6 year old child for calling others names like that.

[spanone]

5. 'president' shitstain has no respect for the Native American population

[Arkansas Granny]

7. Or for women.

[spanone]

8. he really respects no one.

[spanone]

23. you're just so clever ain't you

[spanone]

25. ah people like me....you are a clever little trumpster

[leftofcool]

30. Isn't there a sign on DU? Russian bots not allowed?

Keep up the good work.

[Cobalt Violet]

43. You're insulting shitstains.

44. well, there is that.

[Docreed2003]

52. Ive seen some glorious shitstains in my life...

I’m so sad I didn’t get to see that shitstain post that was removed!!

[uponit7771]

9. Such a racist

[SummerSnow]

10. Warren should refer to him as Hitler in her tweets for now on

[uponit7771]

11. YES !!! Please report Red Don's racist ass'd post !!

[uponit7771]

29. you forgot the /sarcasm tag no?

[FSogol]

34. Aw, someone haz a sad! Shitstain is probably the nicest thing I'd call Trumpy.

[NCTraveler]

14. Clinton has been called so many horrible things here.

The people parroting Trumps tweet do not mind thugs like this when they are directed at women.

[greymattermom]

27. Pocahontas

is a Disney princess.

[uponit7771]

32. and in this context a racist term against female native Americans.

[FSogol]

36. Pssst, check out your American history. n/t

[Cobalt Violet]

38. Reported.

Racist dotard.

[Cobalt Violet]

46. It's still up.

How long do they usually take to address racial slurs? I will be very annoyed if it stays up.

[Ms. Toad]

47. It won't be taken down.

They've never (to my knowledge) removed any of his tweets. I've reported a number of tweets that are racist, misogynistic, or appear to incite violence.

For any ordinary citizen, his account would have been removed. They have decided the fact that he is the president makes it appropriate (and open to interpretaton) political commentary and that outweighs his blatant violation of their TOS.

http://www.businessinsider.com/do-trumps-tweets-violate-twitters-harassment-policy-2017-7

It doesn't stop me from repeatedly reporting him . . . but don't hold your breath waiting for them to delete it, unless you feel like passing out.

48. Done

We're fucked.

[Tarc]

50. The twitter heads don't have the stones to block that orange-tinted fascist

as much as he'd richly deserves it.

[Calculating]

54. Well duh

Twitter would lose like 50 percent of their views overnight without Trump. It would be financial suicide for them to block him.

[Tarc]

55. "Well duh"

Fascinating analysis.

[MyOwnPeace]

51. So...........

if IQ45 could have "Pocahontas" deported - where would she go?

[Vinca]

56. This is barely a blip in the mainstream media. They're normalizing him.

It's driving me nuts.

[joshcryer]

57. If you report, scroll down about 20 tweets and add Puerto Rico tweets.

As well as kneeling tweets.

Combined together they may send a message.

[HAB911]

59. We are trying but Twitter is good with racial slurs

our own SHRED:

60. I have yet to have my report reviewed or answered.

I purposely added several more tweets to show a pattern. He was extremely racist toward the kneelers, and to Puerto Rico.

It'll be interesting to see their reply, if they even bother.
