Speaking at Boston’s Suffolk University’s commencement Elizabeth Warren said “I never imagined I would get into a Twitter war with Donald Trump. How’s this speech polling so far? Higher or lower than Donald Trump’s unfavorable numbers with women?”
*
My response, to mix metaphors:
*
Elizabeth Warren is adept at inflicting the death of a thousand cuts on Trump, wielding a rapier-style sword in a blur of stainless steel precision, while he stumbles with a futile counter-attack trying to fight back with a caveman club clutched in his stubby Neanderthal fingers.
*
It’s like she’s Muhammad Ali fighting Biff Tannen, the “Back to the Future” bully that CNN compared to Donald Trump. She has Ali-like speed and balance and when she connects (which is most of the time) she stings like a bee. If she keeps engaging Trump he could go into anaphylactic shock. One can only hope someone has an epinephrin syringe nearby.
*
She’s like Jackie Chan, a 10th degree black belt as a master of mixing comedy with brain numbing Twitter karate kicks. With her rapidly fired blows, she befuddles Trump so much that even though he’s laying on his ass he doesn’t know he’s been poleaxed.
*
Warren is the first surrogate for a presidential candidate - even thought she has yet to come out supporting Hillary - to assume the role of the entire front line protecting the quarterback, singlehandedly vanquishing the opposition. She’s “Mean Joe” Green, Dick Butkis, Ray Lewis, and Regie White all rolled into one.
*
Whether or not Elizabeth Warren runs for vice president, I hope she continues to take on Trump. As long as Trump the Twitter addicted egotist doesn’t realize how lame, idiotic, and futile his Tweetback insults are he’s likely to give Democrats more ammunition.
