Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumImagine Warren Against Trump
Her demolition of Bloomberg in the Nevada debates was just a warm up.
BY ROBERT KUTTNER FEBRUARY 20, 2020
Elizabeth Warren was prematurely relegated to the second tier in part because a lot of commentators and ordinary voters doubted whether she could stand up to Donald Trump. Warren has lagged behind other Democratic candidates in head to head-to-head general election match-up polls.
For instance, The Washington Post/ABC News poll released just before the Nevada debate showed Biden defeating Trump by seven points, Sanders by six, Bloomberg by five, and Warren winning by just one. And when asked in that poll which candidate has the best chance in the general election, Warren earned just 3 percent of the vote, behind everyone except Tom Steyer.
But that was then. Warren demonstrated last night that she is not just deft and tough at swatting away other Democratic rivals. She is at her absolute best in taking on and taking down male corporate bullies.
If you think the Nevada debate was a desperate one-off, check out Warrens performance eviscerating the CEO of Wells Fargo, Timothy Sloan, when he testified before the Senate Banking Committee.
