Elizabeth Warren gives her highest praise to Biden, complimenting his plans

Source: Washington Post

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who was known as the policy pacesetter during the Democratic presidential primary, gave Joe Biden her form of the highest praise during an address on Wednesday night.

“I love a good plan,” she said. “And Joe Biden has some really good plans."

She pitched his plans on promoting union jobs in manufacturing and clean energy, on increasing Social Security benefits, canceling billions in student loan debt and reshaping bankruptcy laws.

“These plans reflect a central truth: Our economic system has been rigged to give bailouts to billionaires and kick dirt in the face of everyone else,” she said. “But we can build a thriving economy by investing in families and fixing what’s broken.”

I love that Warren went through Biden's policy proposals in addition to slamming on Trump.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren described Joe Biden on Wednesday as a man with “some really good plans” to rebuild an American economy ripped apart by the coronavirus crisis.

“Joe’s plan to build back better includes making the wealthy pay their fair share, holding corporations accountable, repairing racial inequities and fighting corruption in Washington,” Warren said in a Democratic National Convention speech from a preschool in Springfield, Mass.

Warren, known for her wide array of policy plans when she was a Biden rival in the race for the party nomination, said the former vice president would bring back union jobs in manufacturing, create new ones in clean energy, increase Social Security benefits, cancel billions of dollars in student debt and make bankruptcy laws work for families “instead of the creditors who cheat them.”

“These plans reflect a central truth: Our economic system has been rigged to give bailouts to billionaires and kick dirt in the face of everyone else,” the Massachusetts senator said

Warren will get a powerful plum job in the B/H admin, to be sure.

I'd like to see her as Secretary of State or better yet, Attorney General.

We haven't seen the last of Sen. Warren's role with the Biden presidency IMO!
