Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren ridiculed Donald Trump on Monday at a Hillary Clinton rally in Cincinnati, according to
Politico.
Trump, who's called Warren "Pocahontas" due to her claim of Native American ancestry, declared on Twitter:
The outspoken Democrat and tenured Harvard Law professor fired back at the billionaire businessman, saying: "Donald Trump says he'll make America great again. It's right there. It's stamped on the front of his goofy hat. You want to see goofy? Look at him in that hat.
"But when Donald Trump says, 'Great,' I ask, 'Great for who, exactly?'" Warren continued. "For millions of kids struggling to pay for an education? For millions of seniors barely surviving on social security? For families that don't fly to Scotland to play golf? When Donald Trump says he'll make America great, he means make it even greater for rich guys just like Donald Trump."
Warren, who is reportedly on Clinton's shortlist of potential running mates, is one of the most popular politicians among liberals, and is fast becoming the Democratic Party's most vocal Trump detractor, according to
The Washington Times.
The Associated Press suggested that Warren's appearance with Clinton may be an audition of sorts.
"Watch out — he will crush you into the dirt to get whatever he wants," Warren warned before addressing Trump's gloating over the 2008 financial crisis, which benefited him. "What kind of man does that? What kind of man roots for people to lose their jobs, lose their homes, lose their life savings? I'll tell you what kind of a man: a small, insecure money-grubber who fights for no one but himself."
Clinton, speaking after Warren at the Ohio city's Union Terminal, attacked Trump for celebrating Brexit, saying "he crowed from his golf course about how the disruption could end up creating higher profits for that golf course, even though within 24 hours Americans lost [tens of billions] from their 401Ks," reported
The Guardian.
