Elizabeth Warren Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop Laying Into Donald Trump

“Every day there’s another piece of evidence that exposes this small, insecure money-grubber.”


Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) continued her streak of lambasting presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump during remarks at the Massachusetts Democrats state convention on Saturday.

“Every day there’s another story or incident that completely disqualifies him from being president,” Warren said in some of her sharpest attacks yet against the Republican candidate. “Every day there’s another piece of evidence that exposes this small, insecure money-grubber.”

Warren hammered Trump for lying “so routinely and so ridiculously it’s really hard to keep up,” going after the for-profit Trump University, which currently faces multiple lawsuits.

“His playbook said to look for people with problems; they make good targets,” Warren said, referring to the internal guidelines Trump U. salespeople followed. Those guidelines encouraged its employees to mislead and manipulate potential customers.

And probably the best at it, but the more high profile Ds who troll this POS the better.

He can NOT not respond to it.

The more people who effectively dig at him, the more distracted he will be and the more he will publicly display how insecure he is.

Even the Neanderthals who follow Trump could bristle at the idea that they are being conned.

That's going to sting!
I heard his response to Hillary saying he has "thin skin".
He told Jake Tapper he has "thick, strong, beautiful skin".
For some reason that reply doesn't conjure up a pleasant visualization for me...blecchh.

It's so easy to manipulate him. Just push an ego button and off he goes.

I'm sure foreign leaders are taking note.

... rues the day he ever thought about running for President. I think he's running now to NOT be elected. It's sad that we have to put up with him until the November election, as all he will bring to the fore are the violent bigot punks on the streets. Someone is going to get hurt. Bad.

Of course, the misogynists who are a large percentage of his supporters will just be hardened in their resentment, but they were already going to vote for him anyway.

I doubt she'll sway many voters by these comments, but it is nice to see someone call out the cretin on a regular basis. The media sure isn't going to do it.

If you don't

he will run around screaming CrookedHRC for months

and move his own platform to the middle to sound like HRC

which confuses independents and new and marginal voters

GWB did this in 2000. In October, he sounded like Al Gore.

Fight Trump on the issues! Not just that he lies and is insane.

Having Lizzie Warren out there to handle the trench fighting will help her a lot. And if by some miracle Bernie wins, I doubt Warren will stop until Trump is finally laughed off the stage.

Now, having a WOMAN refer to him as "small" is hitting him where he's the most vulnerable: Below the belt!
