My Senator is trolling the living shit outta Donald Trump!

Elizabeth Warren Mocks Trump for Calling Her ‘Goofy’: I Thought You Were ‘Good With Words’



Since 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? That’s the best you can come up with? Come on? I thought Donald Trump was a guy who said he was good with words!.....

I thought Trump would leave off after Warren's "that the best you got" tweet, but he's back for more, and Warren just keeps kicking him in the nads.

We have an idiot in the corner office on Beacon Hill, though....again.

Deval is gone, and now we've got Dumbass Charlie Baker. Ugh.

I think this is new for the Donald -- losing a Twitter war. He is not handling it well.

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

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.
