I’m not happy with this fairly recent trend of Warren apparently supporting Clinton. I honestly thought she had more principal than that. Color me disappoint.
Clinton, Trump. Aren’t they two flavors of the same thing? IE Mis Walmart Chairperson for six years vs mr hairpiece that… good god Trump makes satarization impossible because he’s done worse already.
I know … I’m hoping Warren can help remove all the corporate Winter Soldier sleeper code words from Hilz’s brain that Ken Starr stuffed in there. And I never get tired of watching Hilz shut down the right. They’re petrified of her.
The WaPo article infers that because Warren is speaking against Trump at the same time Clinton is speaking against Trump, she is therefore joining Clinton. If there was actual evidence of such a joining, for example a statement from Warren to that effect, it would have been in the article.
…
The timing of her remarks Tuesday, and their convergence with Clinton’s stump message in California the same day, was not entirely a coincidence.
…
An aide said she takes seriously her potential role in helping to bring those constituencies together and focus the party’s energy on defeating Trump.
…
The “not entirely a coincidence” is WaPo’s inference. The aide’s quote (interestingly not an actual quote, why not?) doesn’t actually say anything about an alliance of Warren with Clinton.
I’m sure Clinton and her supporters would love to create the impression that Warren, who has been very critical of her, is suddenly her bestie. I don’t doubt that Warren would far prefer to see Clinton over Trump in the general election, but that is a different matter.
The Massachusetts senator seized on remarks made by Trump in 2006 and recently unearthed by Hillary Clinton’s campaign, in which Trump said of a housing market crash that “[I] sort of hope that happens because then, people like me would go in and buy … If there is a bubble burst, as they call it, you know you can make a lot of money.”
If Warren wanted the presidency (or VP) and all the headache it entails, she would have run. It was hers for the taking. But it looks like her strategy is stay where she can get the most accomplished.
That being said, if she ever decides to run for president, sign me up for the campaign. She is one of the few people in Congress who I out and out admire.
