Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said the launch of her latest book does not signal the start of a campaign for president in 2020.
Warren appeared on NBC's "Today" show to promote the release of her new book, "This Fight Is Our Fight: The Battle to Save America's Middle Class." She was asked if the book was kicking off a possible bid for the White House.
"No," she said.
And she insisted: "This is not what I'm doing. This is my 11th book. My life's work is about what's happening to working class families across this country. I am running in 2018 — for senator from Massachusetts. I am deeply blessed that the people of the Commonwealth sent me to Washington to fight for them and that's what I'll keep on doing."
Host Matt Lauer noted people are already printing up bumper stickers for 2020 that say: 'She was warned, she was given an explanation, nevertheless she persisted.'
In response, Warren just smiled and said nothing about Lauer's remarks.
The bumper stickers refer to comments from Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who had rebuked Warren during a protest of Jeff Sessions' nomination as attorney general, The Hill reported.
"Sen. Warren was giving a lengthy speech," he said. "She had appeared to violate the rule. She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted."
