Trump called Senator Warren "Pocahontas," again, in connection with a ceremony honoring Navajo participation in The Second World War.
The whining will go on about how offended the Navajos, and indeed all Native Americans everywhere, and all other right-thinking and decent people were, until something else comes along with which to bash him.
Navajo Nation president calls Trump's 'Pocahontas' quip an ethnic slur
MSNBC took the occasion to remind us that Trump's sins against the sensibilities of Native Americans include honoring Columbus this past October, as well as mocking the Massachusetts senator who famously claimed minority status to participate in some academic benefit by asserting she had one great grandparent who was an Indian.
That is not remotely enough to qualify for membership in any tribe in America.
And there is not a Canuck on the planet who cannot do that well or better.
When it suits their party interests, the Democrats will start telling us how insensitive and even racist it is to remind the Germans of Hitler, and of how we and the Russians crushed them in The Second World War.
