Trump said, “You were here long before any of us were here. Although we have a representative in Congress who they say was here a long time ago. They call her Pocahontas.”
The President made his comment while standing below a picture of Andrew Jackson, who is the president who signed the Indian Removal Act. The only way that Trump could have made the situation worse would have been to sign an executive order confiscating all the property of the vets in attendance while handing them some smallpox-infected blankets.
When it comes to racism, the neo-Nazi supporting President has given himself a high bar to clear, but Trump has just outdone himself. The racism and bigotry are relentless with Trump. Anytime, he is taken off script; he disgraces the country.
