Trump faces criticism after making racist jokes about veterans

US President Donald Trump continues to end up being criticized for his inappropriate remarks.

During a ceremony at the White House honouring veterans Navajo in World War II, he made a racial background joke.

Referring to US autochthon veterans, Trump reiterated the nickname he had given his political opponent, Elizabeth Warren, whom he calls Pokahontas.

You've been here long before us. We have a representative in Congress who they say has very deep roots here. Her name is Pokahontas”, said Donald Trump, the US president.

Trump has constantly mocked Warren about claims that he originated with American Indians, naming Pokahontas, as the daughter of a powerful Indian leader in 17th century colonial Virginia was called.

During the campaign this kind of label prompted cheers and criticism, but on Monday the audience remained silent. Warren, a progressive icon by the Massacres, later stated that it was a major disaster the American president made such racial comments during a ceremony to honor heroes.

The White House opposed the senator and blamed her for not being honest about her background.
