\n WASHINGTON \u2014 The White House on Thursday doubled down on criticism of the Washington Redskins for retiring their name and logo, citing a news<\/a> report that found the majority of Native Americans were not offended by it.<\/p>\n

At a briefing, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said President Trump last week ripped the anticipated decision by the NFL team to change their name after backlash from corporate sponsors and decades of controversy because Native Americans would be made \u201cvery angry\u201d by the decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis tweet made it clear that these teams named their teams out of strength, not weakness, and he talked about the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Indians looking at changing their names,\u201d McEnany told reporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe says that he believes the Native American community would be very angry at this and he does have polling to back him up,\u201d she continued.<\/p>\n

In a tweet last Monday, the president suggested the expected name change was a result of the NFL team trying to be \u201cpolitically correct\u201d and took a swipe at Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who infamously claimed she was part Native American.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndians, like Elizabeth Warren, must be very angry right now!\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n

McEnany cited a Washington Post poll from 2016 that found nine in 10 Native Americans weren\u2019t offended by the NFL team\u2019s controversial name.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Washington Post notes that many of these Native Americans voiced admiration for the team name like Barbara Bruce who said, \u2018I\u2019m proud of being Native American and of the Redskins. I\u2019m not ashamed of that at all. I like that name.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGabriel Nez, another 29-year-old from the Navajo community: \u2018I really don\u2019t mind. I like it.\u2019 There are several other comments like this in the Washington Post,\u201d McEnany continued.<\/p>\n

The Redskins on Monday morning announced they were officially retiring their name and logo and are working on renaming the team.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
