In my opinion the master of insults just made one of the biggest mistakes of his short and unconventional political career. Elizabeth Warren baited him by calling him out on Twitter and Trump took the bait hook, line and sinker. The insults are still flying back and forth between the two and I expect that Elizabeth wont let up. By engaging Warren (the hero of the liberal wing of the Democratic party) in a Twitter war, Trump is sure the stir up the animosity from many who were Bernie Sanders supporters who are also Elizabeth Warrens biggest fans.
A common refrain among media talking heads has been, No one will turnout Democratic voters like Donald Trump. In a very crafty move Warren is using Trumps proclivity to insult any and everyone who in any way attacks him to unite the Democratic Party and left leaning independents behind Hillary Clinton in a way no one else can.

Is he trying to bait HRC into picking her?
Is he just trying piss off women ... just for GP?

(5,648 posts)She went after him, so he went after her. It's an automatic reflex with him, he can't help himself - a combination of his narcissism and his impulsive, non filtered speech. I think that was what Elizabeth was counting on going in.
