Trump Honored Native American Code Talkers at the White House. What Could Go Wrong?

http://www.theroot.com/trump-honored-native-american-code-talkers-at-the-white-1820776590

I want to build a wall around the White House that doesn’t allow anyone of color inside, because once inside, we can’t keep you safe. There is a good chance that you are going to be subjected to racist jokes from an old man who can’t find his penis, nor hold it, because he has really tiny hands.

On Monday, President Ludwig von IFuckingHateThisManWithAllMyMight was honoring Native American “code talkers,” who served in World War II, and thought that it would be funny to call Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) “Pocahontas” because you know, Native Americans!

What an asshole. Seriously, this man is representing America on a global stage, and he doesn’t think that any of this kind of behavior is even remotely racist and cringeworthy.

The Hill notes that none of the code talkers responded to his remarks, and because Trump wasn’t finished, he referred to White House chief of staff John Kelly as simply “chief” because you, Native Americans were in attendance .... and ... fuck this guy.

If he talks like this in public, I wonder what his private conversations are like.

"the tapes are not authentic"
No one except his shrinking base will believe him.
