Elizabeth Warren decries Trump as ‘corruption in the flesh’

Facing thousands of cheering supporters in the nation’s largest city, Democratic presidential contender Elizabeth Warren on Monday decried President Donald Trump as “corruption in the flesh” and outlined her plans to root out corruption in the White House, Congress and courts.

“Corruption has put our planet at risk. Corruption has broken our economy. And corruption is breaking our democracy,” said Warren, a Massachusetts senator who has emerged as a leading presidential contender.

While aggressive, the message was a familiar one. Warren has embraced corruption as a central campaign theme from the beginning of her 2020 presidential bid. […]

“Giant corporations have bought off our government,” she said.

Specifically, her anti-corruption plan would “end lobbying as we know it” by instituting a lifetime ban on members of Congress and White House Cabinet secretaries from ever becoming lobbyists. At the same time, corporate lobbyists would be blocked from working for the federal government.

Both practices are common today.

She also would prohibit federal judges from avoiding misconduct investigations by leaving their posts, prevent courts from sealing settlements in public health and safety cases and ban class-action waivers for all cases involving employment, consumer protection, antitrust and civil rights.

Native Americans are prolific with their tongues, great orators. She needs someone to be beating a drum while she speaks, and another group doing the Sun Dance. Earth and the buffalo that are gone will for sure vote for her.

A bunch of name calling, and no alternative agenda that would be better than Trump.

That’s the demcorats.

They forgot to add “without proof” (like they do for everything Trump says.)

Yep, the CFPB or as I call it the Commie Fascist Plunder Barron's. Designed not only to shake down money trees but hand it over to leftist organs. If that was not bad enough it was immune to Congressional oversight and picked it's own leaders. Fortunately President Trump found another law to get his pick pushed in.

This was Warren's shakedown baby and Trump finding a way to slap her grubby hands off of it makes her run personal.

At least he admits to being orange, and doesn’t try to pass as being brown.

Stupid hag.
