During Trump's address, he referred to Senator Elizabeth Warren's support for Ukraine aid and continued to call her "Pocahontas." As he spoke about the casualties in Ukraine, Democrats applauded while Trump mocked them. Warren clapped back defiantly and later described Trump's speech as a fantasy. Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin criticized Trump's Pocahontas reference as inappropriate for a sitting president, indicating the divisive atmosphere surrounding the discussion of U.S. involvement in Ukraine.
Trump's continued use of the Pocahontas nickname, which reflects his long-standing attacks on Warren's Native American heritage, was met with a mix of laughter and applause.
After Trump's remarks, Warren criticized his speech as fantasy and claimed he was aligning himself with Putin, emphasizing the serious consequences of continued conflict in Ukraine.
