Trump's tweet refers to the massacre of more than 100 Native American men, women and children by U.S. Calvary troops in the late 19th Century. The massacre has become a symbol of the brutality experienced by Native Americans under European-Americans.

What happened at Little Big Horn?

Yes, Little Big Horn was payback for Wounded Knee.

But I think the point being missed here is that Trump is inserting controversial comments so the press will pick up the story.

The same thing happened yesterday when he suggested maybe Melania and the 2nd First Lady could make a few salads for the Clemson Tigers.

Trump is simply jerking the chain of these journalists.

Meanwhile most Deplorables are yacking it up that he’s got their panties in a wad.

Trump is being unPC so he can be credible to average Americans.
