Trump defends Massapequa School District’s use of Native American mascot

President Donald Trump declared his support for the Massapequa School District to maintain its Native American Mascot, calling for the federal Secretary of Education to “fight” for the school district to maintain its mascot.

“I agree with the people in Massapequa, Long Island, who are fighting furiously to keep the Massapequa Chiefs logo on their Teams and School,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Forcing them to change the name, after all of these years, is ridiculous and in actuality an affront to our great Indian population.”
