President Donald Trump took a shot at Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Monday as he ripped the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians for considering a name change.
“They name teams out of STRENGTH, not weakness, but now the Washington Redskins & Cleveland Indians, two fabled sports franchises, look like they are going to be changing their names in order to be politically correct,” the president tweeted. “Indians, like Elizabeth Warren, must be very angry right now!”
