Elizabeth Warren Mocks Trump for Calling Her Goofy: I Thought You Were Good With WordsSince Hillary Clinton has avoided getting too sharp in her attacks against Donald Trump, Elizabeth Warren has picked up the mantle and has been one of the top politicians publicly ridiculing The Donald.
Warren and Trump have gotten into some Twitter back-and-forths, and Warren told Mic in an interview today that a Trump presidency would just be another one where only a thin slice at the top benefits.
She made a broader pitch about a government that works more for the people than for lobbyists before being asked about Trump calling her goofy.
She said her reaction was, Really? Thats the best you can come up with? Come on? I thought Donald Trump was a guy who said he was good with words!.....

(58,648 posts)I actually hope Hillary doesn't pick her for VP. I want her right where she is, fighting for us in the Senate.

(135,425 posts)The VP has to subsume their own policy agendas and take on the priorities of the head of the ticket.
EW can have much more clout sitting right where she's at, as a Senate leader. If she's had enough of that crap, she could go over to Treasury or even the Fed, soon enough. I think she's hitting her stride on the Hill, though.
