Sen. Elizabeth Warren has been hitting the trail as if it were her job on the line this election, working for Hillary Clinton and hopeful Senate colleagues. In North Carolina, she spared no pity for her current colleague Richard Burr, and his total capitulation to Donald Trump. He asked for it—and Warren delivered.
Warren listed insults Trump has used on the campaign trail, including calling Mexicans "rapists" and attacking a Gold Star Family, emphasizing that Burr "fully supports" Trump.
"Trump calls women fat pigs and bimbos and brags about sexually assaulting women, and Richard Burr is like a puppy on a leash, sticking right there with Donald Trump," she said. "If Richard Burr is just going to be Donald Trump’s lap dog, then let him go off and do that. But the people of North Carolina need a strong, independent voice to fight for the families of North Carolina. And that is Deborah Ross." […]
"According to Donald Trump, a woman who fights back is a nasty woman," she said. "Women have had it with guys like Donald Trump and Richard Burr. And nasty women have really had it with guys like Donald Trump and Richard Burr."
This one's a toss up, with Ross continuing to run all-out to unseat Burr—with a little help from her friends. Having Elizabeth Warren on your side in this election is surely a lot better than having Trump.
