Fighting White Terrorists Since 1492
Donald Trump Faces Payback In The Desert
If the presidential race in Arizona is close, Native Americans could throw it to Clinton.
Make America great again? .... There was an even greater America before 1492.
FORT DEFIANCE, Ariz. ― Living among the red-rock gullies and the desert scrub in this corner of the country are a people who could soon exact their revenge on Donald Trump.
Because while the Republican presidential nominee appears to have forgotten about Native Americans of late, with his focus on Muslims and Mexicans, Arizonas hundreds of thousands of Native Americans have not forgotten about him.
I heard it for a long time, how he talks about Indians, said Dennis Tsinnijinnie, 69 and among the first to cast his ballot on the sunny but brisk opening morning of Arizonas early vote period last week.
Tsinnijinnie was talking about Trumps behavior from decades ago, when he accused some Native Americans of faking their ethnicities to win casino licenses. When he disparaged tribes for receiving federal money for roads. When he mocked their sovereignty. And, more recently, when he insulted Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) with the epithet Pocahontas.
