Trump Fans Chase Warren Through Airport Screaming 'Pocahontas' Slur

Supporters of President Donald Trump chased Massachusetts Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren through an airport screaming Trump’s “Pocahontas” slur and demanding she “stop impeachment!”

When Warren arrived at the Reno-Tahoe Airport Wednesday afternoon, she was greeted by a gang of Trump supporters holding “Trump-Pence” signs. They surrounded the senator and shouted demands for her to “STOP IMPEACHMENT!”

Although Warren was an early proponent of impeachment among Democratic candidates, she is a member of the Senate and has no vote in whether or not Trump is impeached. The Senate holds a trial only after the House of Representatives impeaches.

Warren handled the barrage with a smile, at one point telling the mob “It’s nice to see you!” As she exited the airport, the group began shouting the “Pocahontas” slur that has been a favorite of Trump’s.

If she flew private during the primaries, the right would accuse her of being an elitist. If she wins the nomination, she will have a campaign plane.

These idiots will spare no one in their blind support of the Squatter-in-Chief. The accusations and names will get worse and uglier.

Warren handled it well--a smile and "It's nice to see you." Probably drove them nuts.

What I do not understand is why “Pocahontas” is considered a slur. If I remember the story correctly, her actions saved the first permanent settlement in America. She was a heroine who saved America as it was then; just as President Elizabeth Warren will save America as it is now.

Unforgivable that this was even allowed to happen. One of those screeching morons could have taken her out.

I noticed in a Pelosi sound byte the other day that two large gentlemen wearing sunglasses and mics were standing discretely back and keeping an eagle eye on EVERYTHING.
