Sioux Leader To Trump: ‘Leave The Office You Bought And Take Your Swamp Things With You’

[jillian]

Should have been more offended by the portrait of Andrew Jackson than Trump's need to make every event about him and his uncontrollable prepubescent urge to insult someone every time he opens his fat fucking mouth...

I'm sure they were offended by the picture of Andrew Jackson. And I'm pretty sure Donald had the photo op right under it as a little high five to the "base".

As for the rest.... you got that right. *hug*

You know, all I want is for him to act like a President, exercise some Presidential decorum, respect the office... stop tweeting. Is that too much to ask? You know I was not a fan of Obama, but I hoped for the best, defended him when the pettiness was baseless and silly or unecessary, criticized him when I thought it was warranted. I didn't vote for Trump, but I don't want to seem him fail anymore than I wanted Obama to fail. All that does is wind up hurting the country as a whole, us. But my GOD, Trump is a hot mess. I don't know, I can't express my thoughts right now. It's been one of those days...

I think you expressed yourself pretty darn well.

Thing is everyone knew what he was. He wasn't ever going to pivot.

Harold Frazier said Trump should also apologize to the nation for his Pocahontas remarks.

A Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe leader issued a damning response Wednesday to President Donald Trump’s “Pocahontas” slur earlier this week during an event meant to honor Navajo Code Talkers.

Harold Frazier, chairman of the South Dakota-based tribe, said he was “deeply ashamed” of Trump’s “disgusting” treatment of the World War II veterans and appeared to suggest that the president should resign.

“The President of the United States had an opportunity to honor veterans and bridge gaps in the relationship Tribes have with the Federal government,” Frazier said in a statement sent to HuffPost. “Instead, he chose to disgrace himself, his position and the nation he represents.”

Frazier continued, “The President of the United States wanted to utilize an opportunity to honor native warriors who defended this land to make a political attack. I have one for him, leave the office you bought and take your swamp things with you.”

For many Native Americans, Trump’s racist remark was a reminder of the trauma they have faced since European colonization began in the 1600s.

“We have been forced to learn the way of the American life,” Frazier said. “We have learned American religions, language, economy, politics and society. ... The President’s comments are another reminder that we are not allowed to participate.”

Frazier also pointed out that sexual assault and abuse, much like the violence that the real Pocahontas endured, affect Native American women at staggering rates.

“What happened to Pocahontas is still happening today to our women,” Frazier said. “Native American women continue to be victims of rape and exploitation by white men. The President of the United States is practicing that by exploiting native women as an insult for political machismo.”

Trump hasn’t addressed the outpouring of condemnation he’s received from Native American leaders and U.S. lawmakers since Monday.

Amen! Trump not only shamed Native Americans - he shamed America!

So this dickhead thinks he speaks for every Native in America???

Shit....they aren't even in the same Tribe.
What makes this guy think he can speak for Pocahontas' tribe?

I think what we have here is yet again another asshole the Democrats gave a few bucks to so they could use him as a victim.
America isn't buying this shit anymore.

No, he speaks for the Sioux Tribe, Most of the leaders of the other tribes have said the same thing though.

There is no Sioux Tribe.
Sioux means "People"......and that is not the name of a motherfucking tribe.

My Uncle was full-blooded Sioux..... he was a Tribal member, not one of these leaders who are in it just to register their casino for tax-free status. Sioux isn't the name of the Tribe. He lived on the Flathead Indian Reservation until he was allowed to move to Yakama Washington. Sioux, which is a Hebrew name isn't the actual name of the tribe they're from, you ignorant ass.....

The Flathead Indian Reservation, located in western Montana on the Flathead River, is home to the Bitterroot Salish, Kootenai, and Pend d'Oreilles Tribes - also known as the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes of the Flathead Nation.
