Trump's New Nickname for Elizabeth Warren Is Pretty Terrific

After Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Donald Trump had somewhat of a Twitter feud last week, New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd asked the presumptive GOP nominee if “he had been chided by any Republicans” for his tweets attacking the Democratic senator.

In the series of May 11 tweets, Trump referred to the Massachusetts Democrat as “Goofy Elizabeth Warren,” but in responding to Dowd’s question he clarified, saying: “You mean Pocahontas?”

Trump also attacked Warren for her faux Native American heritage back in a March interview with Dowd.

“I think it’s wonderful because the Indians can now partake in the future of the country," he said, when asked about her jabs. "She’s got about as much Indian blood as I have. Her whole life was based on a fraud. She got into Harvard and all that because she said she was a minority.”

Looks like the war of words between the two is far from over, to say the least.
