President Trump invoking Pocahontas as a derogatory term

That didn't actually happen. The President was mocking Warren, not making a derogatory statement about the REAL Pocahontas and/or Native Americans in general.

Exactly. If someone lied about being a world class boxer to get a scholarship, and Trump called him Joe Lewis or Mike Tyson, it would not be a dig at Lewis or Tyson, or at black people. It would simply be mocking someone for making a ridiculous assertion.
