One of the ads that ran against him railed about the former Chief donating to Hillary Clinton's campaign, trying to mine that D-R rift. On FB this morning some Trumper railed that she was going to "get Trump involved" in the election, and I was amazed to see the immediate and excoriating push-back from other Cherokees. Don't give up. The Cherokee Nation must continue to exist just as Trump must be defeated (although personally I just wish someone would take him by the collar and march him out of the WH). There are plenty of Republican Cherokee, but most will not support Trump.
