During a highly entertaining moment in his State of the Union Address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday, March 4, President Donald Trump commented on the state of wars abroad, particularly in Gaza and Ukraine, and while speaking about his peace plans, he roasted far-left Senator Elizabeth Warren, calling her “Pocahontas.”
As background, the “Pocahontas” nickname comes from a lie Elizabeth Warren told when angling to get a faculty spot at Harvard. She claimed to be part Native American, thus leading to her benefitting from affirmative action and getting the spot. However, she is not a Native American, and her premise for claiming she is comes from, as she put it, family tales and her “high cheekbones.” Trump loves using the nickname to mock her, which he did while she glared with fury during the Tuesday night address.
In that portion of the address, Trump started by saying, “In the Middle East, we’re bringing back our hostages from Gaza. In my first term, we achieved one of the most groundbreaking peace agreements in generations, the Abraham Accords, and now we’re going to build on that foundation to create a more peaceful and prosperous future for the entire region. A lot of things are happening in the Middle East.”
He then used the “Pocahontas” nickname to slam Warren’s stance on continuing the bloody, expensive conflict. He said, “The United States has sent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Ukraine’s defense with no security, with no anything. Do you want to keep it going for another five years? Yeah. Yeah. You, you would say. Pocahontas says yes.”
Warren, as Trump said that, was slowly clapping, seemingly over his comments on the hostages and trying to stop the killing and death in Ukraine, heard the nickname and his mockery over her and her face became twisted and contorted with obvious rage. Watch that very, very funny moment here:
