Really?I hope corrupt Hillary Clinton chooses goofy Elizabeth Warren as her running mate. I will defeat them both.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 6, 2016
Is that REALLY what Trump wants?
Or this another of his misdirections in the hopes that by saying it he will never really have to face them together?
Trump then went on to attack Warren with a few more pathetic tweets.
And Warren took notice.
I called out @realDonaldTrump on Tuesday. 45 million saw it. He's so confident about his "counter punch" he waited until Friday night. Lame.— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
“Goofy,” @realDonaldTrump? For a guy with "the best words" that’s a pretty lame nickname. Weak!— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
But here's the thing. You can beat a bully -- not by tucking tail and running, but by holding your ground.— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
You know Donald Trump only likes women when they have their mouths closed and are parading around in front of him wearing skimpy clothing. He has NO idea how to deal with a strong, intelligent, and confident woman..@realDonaldTrump lied his way through the primaries without being held accountable. That’s over.— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
So just imagine if he were facing TWO of them.
Ugh warren. Stop. You're becoming psychotic like Hillary.
ReplyDeleteTrump has met his match. There is no way he will be able to control the narrative against Elizabeth Warren or Hillary Clinton.

DeleteYou are a moron. Really.. Feel sorry for you..
DeleteReally. Psychotic. I guess logic, reason, experience, and wisdom could be mistaken for an inability to differentiate between correct and incorrect actions. //
DeleteThere is something truly wrong with you.
DeleteRight, Senator Warren is the one with the problem here. Sit down and STFU.
Delete2:10 PM? Crawl back under the rock. It's over for you.
DeleteBecoming like Hillary? What a woman?
DeleteHillary is not a woman 8:17, neither is Warren. If either of them were ever women, it's been at least 30 years since past.
DeleteYou're dumb, 10:02.
DeleteYes, a very bad idea. Let's see, a former Harvard law professor versus a dumb ass loud mouth bully.
ReplyDeleteBring it on.
Goofy? This insult-nickname trait of Comb-over Trump has run its course...it has become very weak and lame.
DeleteGoofy. Do i want the President using words like this? Am i in Junior High again? You want to make America great again. Well here's a clue, quit acting like a bunch of insult comics and talk about real concerns. So far Trump has campaign has been played like a reality tv show. Don't go there. Ask that asshole questions he can't answer, insults are not answers.
DeleteI want to see Mrs. Clinton put the fire to this idiot. I want answers. How are you going to pay for the Great Wall Of America Mr. Trump? And call him Mr. Trump , not Donald he is not your friend although he want's to be thought of as the billionaire guy next door. Number one take that away from him. Ask him about his clothes made in China, ask him how he intends to run his businesse's without a conflict and no undo influence.
Let him fire all those Mexicans that he has working at his Hotels. He brought them here so show the numbers and slap it in his face.I tell you he can not pass the "sun light" test that cockroaches run from.
I so wish Elizabeth were the Presidential nominee. Or Bernie, who has a hopeful, YOUNG, passionate following (unlike Hillary who epitomizes the neoliberal in all its shame).
ReplyDeleteChris Hedges has a good point:
"...The Democrats are playing a very dangerous game by anointing Hillary Clinton as their presidential candidate. She epitomizes the double-dealing of the college-educated elites, those who speak the feel-your-pain language of ordinary men and women, who hold up the bible of political correctness, while selling out the poor and the working class to corporate power.
"The Republicans, energized by America’s reality-star version of Il Duce, Donald Trump, have been pulling in voters, especially new voters, while the Democrats are well below the voter turnouts for 2008. In the voting Tuesday, 5.6 million votes were cast for the Democrats while 8.3 million went to the Republicans. Those numbers were virtually reversed in 2008—8.2 million for the Democrats and about 5 million for the Republicans."
"Lower-class whites are embracing an American fascism.
These Americans want a kind of freedom—a freedom to hate. They want the freedom to use words like “nigger,” “kike,” “spic,” “chink,” “raghead” and “fag.” They want the freedom to idealize violence and the gun culture. They want the freedom to have enemies, to physically assault Muslims, undocumented workers, African-Americans, homosexuals and anyone who dares criticize their cryptofascism.
They want the freedom to celebrate historical movements and figures that the college-educated elites condemn, including the Ku Klux Klan and the Confederacy. They want the freedom to ridicule and dismiss intellectuals, ideas, science and culture. They want the freedom to silence those who have been telling them how to behave. And they want the freedom to revel in hypermasculinity, racism, sexism and white patriarchy. These are the core sentiments of fascism. These sentiments are engendered by the collapse of the liberal state."
Disregard them at our peril. If there is not a peaceful-ish revolution (with inequality addressed, not status quo mealy promises) this election there will be a bloody one next time, or sooner.

I am signing this Anon as I don't need the agro on this site.
He may have a point but you do not counter the vileness with a wimpy old white guy like Sanders.
DeleteYou, and Chris Hedges are the same as the bigots on T.Rumps team. One is not either a college educated "elite" or a member of the working class (and often working poor) It is both college educated, working poor and in debt. The last thing we need is an idealogue in the executive to match the idealogues in Congress. Let's make Congress work again.
DeleteAnd BTW, 2:20, a big reason many Dems didn't bother is that we're really OK with Sanders or Clinton. a big MEH. On the other hand, we know that Tea and Re-THUGS are always looking for a fight and a cheap "win". Their reptilian brains get off on that. Eenie, Meenie, Minie and Moe could be running and they'd pick one to be THEIR candidate, and argue viciously why "theirs" was better than others.
DeleteWhen the top 1% has 99% of the wealth what the hell do you label that? If not fascism then what on earth do you think it is?

DeleteOligarchy? Authoritarian Regime?
WTF is with the "anointing" crap???? She has been vetted more than any other candidate. She has run for election TWICE and has earned the lead in the primaries. She is the most qualified candididate in 50 years. She has EARNED every fuckin' vote she has gotten EVERY. ONE. So tired of this misogynistic shit.
DeleteI'm tired of it, too. It sounds like the crap the right wing threw at Obama.
DeleteCalling her "anointed" or the primary process a "coronation" is a way to demean HRC and deligitimize her and the process. She came close to winning in 2008 and is winning now because she's earned the most votes. She will be the next POTUS and the first woman POTUS because she she has earned it.
Sure, the first woman president must be anointed. She couldn't possibly have earned it or be the most qualified for the job. It has to be some kind of affirmative action or quota, right?
Delete/s
Anonymous6:41 PM,
DeleteIt is even more infuriating and disheartening to hear women say that crap. I swear women are their own worst enemies.
8:02. Yes, there's nothing more unfathomable to me than a right-wing woman who goes against her best interests. But there are male-biased, sexist women everywhere.
DeleteMaybe they are just that much smarter than liberal women- who whine and cry about everything they are not- and that they think is owed to them. Non liberal women are not afraid to be real women. Real women who understand that men and women truly are not equal, different creatures entirely, and as much as women are not equals to men, men are not equals to women.
DeleteThe quintessential schoolyard bully.
ReplyDeleteI see what he's doing; choose one adjective and drive it in over and over again until people believe it. Simple word association and mind control.
Cruz - Lying
Clinton - Corrupt
Warren - Goofy
And a complacent media that flat out will not call him out on it. They ARE lame stream, and adviser $arah knows it. Why else would she still be asked her opinion on anything?
Investigative journalism died long ago.
Now, just sensationalism.
Not a grown up to be found among them. Any of em. All of em.
DeleteHe is a bully and it is the main reason he is so disgusting
DeleteAnonymous2:50 PM
DeleteAnd the stupid intelluctually lazy electorate applies false equivalencies. Hillary is as much like Trump and Cruz as the Democrats and and Republicans are equally to blame for the do-nothing congress - another false equivalency.
Poor Dullard has no recourse but name calling and negative labeling because he doesn't have the brains or vocabulary to debate on a college level.
DeleteJust wait until he starts insulting her looks. He'll pull the old "would you vote for that face?" insult. Because he's got nothing else.
2:20 PM should remember that people have been ignoring Chris Hedges for years.
ReplyDeleteToo many trolls at IM today. I'm out.
Good. Have a nice day.

DeleteI really wish she hadn't stooped to his level. Now, she's just one more mouth on the playground. Bunch of babies, one and all.
ReplyDeleteDon't agree, 2:48 PM! Trump has never had a woman go at him like this and it's a pleasure finally seeing someone do it.
DeleteToo bad it took an intelligent woman to rattle the girly, girl Donald Trump - vs a man standing up to him.
No, she is just standing her ground to a bully - enough is enough!
DeleteI'm glad she answered him. Taking the high road got us George Bush. First with the Internet & now social media, every absurd attempt at GOP partisan bamboozlement must be answered.
DeleteAgree with you. I was very disappointed on her insult about his hair the other day. Really? Why go there?
DeleteYou wish she hadn't answered him? Fuck trump and fuck you, it's about time someone took him on!
DeleteHe has been this way his entire life and it's about time someone cut him down to size. I hope this ends with him sobbing on national TV.
DeleteHe went uber nasty about her heritage, etc., etc. I'm glad she not only spoke up but stood her ground. No one puts baby in a corner, not even Trump. We need MORE and not less, especially from women.
DeleteShe dd not stoop. Her comments were cogent and true.
DeleteWarren is an over-rated idiot.
DeleteThe fact that she is stooping to this level while pretending to hold some type of high ground just shows what an moron she is.
Hopefully though she continues to try to play this game. Trump will chew her up and spit her nasty ass out. It will be entertaining to watch the old lady attempting to play hardball. My guess is she will eventually shut up once she has learned her lesson.
Gawdddd you're all alike. Not one original excuse between you.

Senator Warren , a tweet war with Trump? Really? This is so beneath you. I expected better from you, what a disappointment.
4:25 PM So you much rather have Senator Warren not fight back at all? You prefer instead to quote the late Bartcop a 'Pink Tutu Democrat' one that cower in fear of any GOP attacks?
DeleteNo, it doesn't have citations, it has links to other opinion pieces. Some pretty ludicrous opinion pieces. most of which blame her fro Bill's actions - huh?
DeleteDon't worry if you can't fathom it. You don't have to. Vote for whomever you like and we will do the same.
DeleteThat whole piece is kind of gross. It starts with the author telling us he loves us, then goes into why we are all uninformed, with the usual innuendos and unfounded rumors Hillary has had thrown at her for 25 years. If only we would wake up, we'd realize that Hillary is an evil monster and Sanders is our only hope!
DeleteSuch misogyny in that piece!!
DeleteI guess I'll just wait for Chuck Todd tomorrow to tell me how I'm supposed to feel. Eye roll.
ReplyDeleteIs he still on? Thought they got rid of him!
DeleteHe's there. He was rolling his eyes the other night when Cruz dropped out and whining about how he didn't understand how the 'two most hated people in politics are the nominees.'
DeleteGee, Chuck, we can't figure out how such a nonjournalist as yourself still has a network job.
I see the Sanders/tRump/Manafort trolls are out in force again and spreading it thicker than NUTella on white bread.

Stunning Poll Reveals Hillary Clinton And Donald Trump Are Tied In Georgia
ReplyDeleteA new poll of Georgia revealed that Hillary Clinton could turn the Peach State blue as she is in a statistical tie with Donald Trump.
http://www.politicususa.com/2016/05/07/stunning-poll-reveals-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-tied-georgia.html
Georgia, Go Blue!
DeleteAll right!
DeleteGranted, she is only 1/16 Cherokee and she probably shouldn't have ever mentioned that as to giving her credentials with First People.
ReplyDeleteTripp Palin is 1/16 Native Alaskan and Bristol doesn't even avail herself of free medical care for him, neither does Todd who is actually 1/4.
One must be careful when playing the "Native American" card in this country.
Slippery slope and Warren should just let that go and move on.
I thought she was 1/32. Whatever it is, I believe her. If you're from Oklahoma, you know that so many of us have native ancestors.
DeleteNothin' wrong with saying you have Native blood if you in fact do!
DeleteShe never asked for special treatment or favors regarding her Native heritage.
I'm Cherokee as hell, but my phenotype gave me the Irish appearance(pale milk skin, blue eyes and red hair). The Cherokee here, in NC, do not like this, but what can you say when your Native link is listed on the Dawes Roll, like mine is.
Are people who are 1/16 black considered and treated as black.
DeleteRidiculous to think Warren shouldn't proudly include having Native American heritage while all other political candidates talk about their heritage and family's American experience.
DeleteIf Todd and Bristol and the kids are not on the free native health plan, just who is paying their bills? I think they would take whatever they could grab. I always thought Bristol held off marrying because she could stay on Daddy's plan, and Levi didn't have any health care at the time. There's no way half Governor has health care-or gee, are they on the ACA and getting subsidies??
DeleteYou are laughable 3:33 - then why did Bristol make the claim in her custody papers - shot of filed papers in this article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/shannyn-moore/granny-palin-overcomes-he_b_470297.html
DeleteAnd 3:33 - IIRC, the last time she mentioned native American Heritage was as a college student looking to socialize with others who had that heritage. The opposition found that membership and brought it up.
DeleteDon't you have a highway centerline to go play on, troll?
1/16th is the threshold for cashing in on tribal casinos. That would be worth mentioning...
Delete's wrong with bringing up Native American heritage?
DeleteSigned
Little Rabbt
1/64th will get you a free college education in my tribe. What's the standard in your tribe? Or are you white like I think?

DeleteThey used to be. It used to be if you had one drop of African blood you were black and could be held as a slave. It's what the musical Showboat is about.
There were even names like quadroon, octaroon and mulatto to describe all of the different percentages of Black you could be. It's called hypodescent.
"In the South it became known as the "one-drop rule,'' meaning that a single drop of "black blood" makes a person a black. It is also known as the "one black ancestor rule," some courts have called it the "traceable amount rule," and anthropologists call it the "hypo-descent rule," meaning that racially mixed persons are assigned the status of the subordinate group. This definition emerged from the American South to become the nation's definition, generally accepted by whites and blacks.""Not only does the one-drop rule apply to no other group than American blacks, but apparently the rule is unique in that it is found only in the United States and not in any other nation in the world."
But it doesn't pertain to native americans.
I'm really feeling embarrassed to be American...:(
DeleteWell, those terms are not used any more nor are the laws regarding them valid any more.
DeleteBut the south has a hard time letting go. Witness the fight over the confederate flag.
Americans are still too obsessed with race. We have replaced the one drop rule vocabulary with more politically correct verbage like biracial or multiracial. But those terms are only used for non-whites. I'm half Italian and half German, but would not be referred to as bi-racial because both are caucasian. Yet, as a race, Germans and Italians are culturally and socially very different.
Correction mlaiuppa, democrats and their race hustlers are obsessed with race, that is 75% of their entire platform. Conservative are mostly concerned with reining in the bloated nanny state, adhering to the constition, and personal responsibility.
DeleteOh, but this is going to be fun! Elizabeth Warren can say the things Hillary Clinton cannot and Hillary can focus on her plans as POTUS for Americans!
ReplyDeleteI love that Ms. Warren is taking the asshole on and she's already doing a hell of a job!
Exactly! Hillary doesn't have to go after Trump's idiotic comments if someone else, like Elizabeth, will take on the attack role. Trump knows nothing about policy so the way he stays in the news is by being a bully and attacking anyone and everyone who opposes him. During the debates, he totally destroyed Jeb since he didn't know how to react at first. When Jeb tried to get back at Trump at a later debate, Trump was ready and destroyed Jeb again.
DeleteI claim being a Cherokee and my lineage is pretty small. So should others if they see fit!

DeleteAnyone else think that he will have so much trouble finding anyone to run WITH him, he might actually choose her?
I would no more align myself with Donald Trump than I would kill one of my grandchildren.
DeleteI think Paul Ryan is upset that Trump is the presumptive nominee. If there had been a contested convention, I'm sure Ryan would have played hard to get until the GOP begged him to be the nominee. Now he is miffed that his chance is over.
