Trump has referred to Warren as "Pocahontas" on multiple occasions in the past.
"Pocahontas just stated that the Democrats, lead by the legendary Crooked Hillary Clinton, rigged the Primaries! Lets go FBI & Justice Dept," the president said in a tweet on November 3.
Warren responded to that tweet during an appearance on CBS' 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.'
"Donald Trump thinks if he's going to start every one of these tweets to me with some kind of racist slur here that he's going to shut me up," she said. "It didn't work in the past, it's not going to work in the future."
