Hillary’s ‘off the reservation’ remark angers Native Americans

[brendablethyn 536]

If it was Trump, Hillary and her co-sponsors would be all over CNN with steam coming out their ears, calling him every label in the book and using it to divide... "Did you hear what Donald Trump said last week? I am outraged!". Her whole campaign is about finding these minority wedge issues and using them to divide people.

Already posted it. I'll post it again.

The definition of "off the reservation" is different in US politics according to Oxford.

It means: To break with one's party or group, usually temporarily.

She didn't make a comment towards Native Americans, history, or genocide nor was the context relevant. 

So sit down and stem your faux outrage. Your agenda has been clear from the start. Trump makes sensationalist and offensive statements left and right and the media flock to him cause he's a celebrity joke. Nothing more nothing less.

So basically what you're saying is it's only offensive if Trump says it.

Trump is blatantly offensive. If Trump had said it, he would have been talking about a Native American.

That's the difference.

In context, Trump would have used it in a way that plays into the hoopla. Hillary was OBVIOUSLY no where near the ball park. So to imply that she meant it in a bad way, would be a stretch.

It is quite interesting that the same people who take issue with Trump using rape as a metaphor have no problem with Hillary using an offensive idiom.

Typical Bernie Sandinista comment.

I don't like that she used that comment, but she made a mistake and apologized so let's crucify her.

The idiom isn't inherently offensive. It's political slang and it was used as such. 

Rape isn't political slang. It's immature and childish.

Another SJW moment I see...  I heard people complaining about this on the news the other day, and just SMH!  I have been hearing this phrase all my life, and even on shows such as the Golden Girls, etc.  So all of a sudden now it's offensive???!  And she wasn't even referring to Native Americans when talking about this.  But mind you all the people on this thread that are coming for her, are probably the same ones who dismissed Bernie's debate comment about whites not living in the ghetto, and knowing what it's like to be poor!  If you guys want a machine that is perfect & up-to-date on every current SJW offense, then by all means go on ahead and call Intel & have them create one for you!

Lol, Trump says something offensive several times a week. People hardly even pay attention to all the disturbing comments coming from him anymore. He's said so many troubling and offensive things over the years, it is standard and expected now. 

Hillary dividing people? Yeah, that's why there are so many minorities voting for Trump instead of Hillary.  Oh wait....
