      Yes, because Trump is noted for his knowledge of 19th century American history vis a vis the native population. Jeez.https://twitter.com/JamilSmith/status/1094379739370815488 …

      I try to never dignify this man’s tweets, but there is little doubt here that he uses “TRAIL” to evoke the genocidal Trail of Tears, and does so to land a political jab. Warren has taken justifiable heat on this issue—but he used the murders of Indigenous people as a punchline. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1094368870415110145 …

          I like that Hume’s ostensible defense is “everyone knows Trump is an absolute idiot lacking a basic fluency in history”.

          He’s certainly racist enough to have intentionally chosen the historically-loaded word “savage” as a response. And they think this is *clever* humor. It’s not. It’s deplorable.

          It's just as bad as wearing blackface and they should be ashamed and tRUmp should resign because of it! He had the nerve to call out the VA. Gov. for the blackface now what he did is just as bad! Step away tRUmp. Ethics is not your strong suit! Hypocrite!

          The US attacked people...if they had not then those soldiers would not have died. The aboriginals were the victims. Like the 11million people who died are the victims at the hands of Hitler's policies.

          Trump is not a racist. I voted for Trump. The democrats embolden and celebrate actual racists, in my view, when they elect them to office...but I dont believe every democrat is a racist. Trump is doing great for America, and his mockery was of Warrens fake Indian claim.
