OUCH: Elizabeth Warren goes on CNBC’s Squawk Box & defends her plan

[kpete]

If you’re an Elizabeth Warren fan or really if you’re just into facts, you gotta watch this. It’s Elizabeth Warren going on CNBC’s Squawk Box, defending her plan to bring back a new version of the Glass-Steagall Act. It’s maybe the best example of the sort of matter-anti-matter reaction that happens when someone who actually knows some history and policy makes first contact with a gaggle of ignorant CNBC yakkers.

4. Note to CNBC talking heads: You're out of your league with Elizabeth Warren

So, don't even try. She's smarter than you are. She knows far more than you'll ever know about these things, and when you try to be combative with her on the air...it just makes you look small and ignorant.

6. K&R.

We need a president who understands economics and our banking system. Elizabeth Warren does. Plus she has a wonderful, warm personality.

Elizabeth Warren for President 2016.

7. It's hilarious

to watch these fools frantically grasping at straws while Senator Warren calmly hands them their asses on a plate. If as Dems we run Hillary instead of this woman for President, we deserve to lose.

8. Fuckers. Admonishing her for trying. Fuck them. She was fantastic!

I love when she said 'if you don't fight for it it has zero chance,' or words similar.
