U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren took her battle with President Trump on the road to the Hawkeye State, as the newly minted Democratic hopeful mused before a crowd of Iowans that the president “may not even be a free person” by the time the presidential election rolls around.
The Bay State’s senior senator visited Iowa, an important early primary state, on Sunday, a day after making her 2020 bid official.
“By the time we get to 2020, Donald Trump may not even be president. In fact, he may not even be a free person,” Warren told a crowd in Cedar Rapids. Trump’s campaign is under investigation by a special counsel looking into whether it colluded with Russia to get Trump elected, and federal prosecutors in New York are probing some of the president’s business dealings.
That comment came after Trump had tweeted about his frequent target of mockery Saturday evening, following Warren’s afternoon announcement in Lawrence, referring to the ongoing controversy about her claims of Native American heritage.
“Today Elizabeth Warren, sometimes referred to by me as Pocahontas, joined the race for President. Will she run as our first Native American presidential candidate, or has she decided that after 32 years, this is not playing so well anymore? See you on the campaign TRAIL, Liz!” Trump tweeted.
Warren had endured a rough week in the news leading up to her campaign kickoff as more documentation about her long-controversial claims of minority and Indian status — a story originally reported by the Herald in 2012 — surfaced, including a signed 1986 Texas bar registration card on which she’d written that her race was “American Indian.”
Peter Olafsen of Cresco, Iowa, called Warren’s Native American scandal an “unforced error,” but told the Herald, “It wasn’t as well-played on her part as it could have been, but I don’t find it a substantive, disqualifying thing.”
Warren said in her Cedar Rapids speech that the middle class has been hollowed out to the benefit of rich people and powerful corporations — a message that clicked with a large and enthusiastic crowd, according to Linn County Democratic Committee chairman Bret Nilles, who said Warren actually could win over moderate Trump voters.
“Trump was able to appeal to those people looking toward the future — that’s what Liz Warren is trying to communicate about,” Nilles said.
Are you threatening the POTUS Lieawatha?
If he is not a free man in 2020 I’m sure some Patriots will decide that those who caused that to happen will regret their Act of Sedition that led to such an event.
Rumors that Trump will be indicted by SDNY, DC, Chicago district courts mid March.
That would be CW2. These government bastards have to go.
The politics of HATE from an old socialist crone who STOLE affirmative action benefits from indigenous people who actually deserved them.
.
The butthurt is strong with this one.
Go have another beer... open this one with your teeth.
And she herself may not be a free person in 2020. Anything can happen between now and then to anyone, but she’s gotta keep people in fear it’s her only chance at any votes.
Hag
...from princess Fraud....
She’s always had reservations about Trump.
She has all the appeal of an egg salad sandwich left in the glovebox over the weekend.
The complete lack of moral standards among Democrats is evident in Peter Olafsen's comment. If it isn't "substantive" to lie and claim you are a Native American to get a job which was intended for a minority applicant, what would be a "substantive, disqualifying thing"?
She still won’t be an indian in 2020 either.
Lady, you’re not in this man’s league so STFU.
Should have saved some of the poat to smear in their faces. Like the bastard that kept screaming "You are a minority, there will never be another Republican president".
Even one of my younger brothers wrote me a year ago January: Two more months and he will be gone.
That goes for all of us if the radical Dem-Socialists seize control of the government.
Fauxcahontas drink too much fire water. Put a cork in it jerk.
Warren changes her appearance more often than a chameleon. Does anyone remember when Warren lived in Oklahoma (before seeking a faculty position at Harvard while posing as a minority) that she was a “Republican” who invested in real estate swaps?
This crap should be taken pretty seriously.
Probably what was behind Tucker Carlson saying Trump didn’t know what he was doing in terms of the DC game.
