Trump, Insulting At Every turn

PRESIDENT TRUMP never misses an opportunity to slander a good person, behave like a barbarian, or emulate an ill mannered petulant child. The more inappropriate the occasion, the more likely the emergence of the tempestuous Trump, as often attested. And why not? The American presidency, more than any other position, is replete with perquisites, pernicious and otherwise. Several days ago, for instance, the contributions of native Americans to the U.S. victory in the pacific in World War Two, which consisted of the Navajo language, linguistically inscrutable, having served as the perfect vehicle for indecipherable encoded messages. There stood the president of prevarication, with guests, with a portrait of Andrew Jackson in the background. Old Hickory, you'll recall, hated Indians, and bullied the Indian Removal Act through a divided congress in 1830, precipitating the great Trail of tears death march of the Cherokee nation from their rightful lands in Georgia, which the U.S. had promised them would remain theirs forever, to Oklahoma. Thus all Indians were relocated west of the Mississippi, as per Jacksonian policy. For decades the Cherokees refused to trade in twenty dollar bills. Davy Crockett, who loved Indians, because they saved his life twice, reminded his congressional colleagues that a promise is a promise, which didn't endear him to his frontier constituency, nor to fellow Tennessee native president Jackson. The two men hated each other, after an auspicious beginning to their political relationship. Crockett took to calling Old Hickory "the government", a grave insult in a time of unpopular government, implying tyranny. Trump could easily have taken the Jackson portrait down for a few minutes, but chose not to, deliberately. why waste an opportunity to insult someone? He wasn't done. His next target was Senator Elizabeth warren, who wasn't even in the room, and irrelevant to the occasion, and therefore a perfect target of trumped up viciousness. Whether or not Senator warren has a single drop of native American blood within, she likes to say that she does, just like we all take pride in our personal heritage. Ancestry matters, particularly to Americans, most of us being, after all, interlopers in our own homes. I'm full blooded Bavarian dairy farmer, and damned proud of it. So what's the point, other than sheer vindictive spite, of slandering Elizabeth Warren in a ceremony intended to honor native Americans by calling her "Pocahontas"? Nobody but Trump and the conservative extremists of questionable character who support him thought it was funny..........................PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THIS WEBSITE! THANKS!
