Jeep probably really does need to pay the Cherokees a royalty or something for use of their name. Legit claim

I'll remember to pay Macron a fee the next time I sell some french fries- the tribe has no property interest in the name "Cherokee" as applied to cars.

Honestly it’s pretty specific I would be pissed if I was Cherokee and they’re using our specific tribe name and fame for their own use and not doing shit for them using Mexico to build their shit etc

Cherokee isn't even the name they called themselves upon the landing of European settlers.

Anyway, this is silly, we don't give any other ethnic group or "tribe" IP rights in the name as applied to irrelevant goods. There is no reason to grant them any special privileges.
