Trump calls Warren 'selfish' for staying in 2020 Democratic contest

President Trump on Wednesday accused Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., of being "selfish" for remaining in the Democratic primary race and taking away votes from the progressive Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., while the more establishment wing of the party consolidates its support for former Vice President Joe Biden.

Warren failed to win any states on Super Tuesday but did garner enough support that if voters had chosen Sanders instead, the democratic socialist may have had better results. Trump implied that Warren's refusal to drop out before the polls open -- as other, more moderate candidates did -- was a betrayal.

"So selfish for Elizabeth Warren to stay in the race," Trump tweeted Wednesday morning. "She has Zero chance of even coming close to winning, but hurts Bernie badly. So much for their wonderful liberal friendship. Will he ever speak to her again? She cost him Massachusetts (and came in third), he shouldn’t!"

Trump probably knows that the real reasons Warren does not want to drop out are:

1) She is angry about what she claims Sanders said about women running for POTUS (but I don't believe it)

2) Dropping out would give Bernie more delegates (because she and Bernie support free govt. healthcare), and she correctly believes Trump would stomp Bernie.

A super-PAC materialized to help the Warren campaign so she can stay in the race. Looks like the effort to prop up Biden is very well coordinated.

I read a long time ago, that Warren was running to drain votes from Sanders.

I know it’s brilliant!!!

Sander’s supports will appreciate Trump for this.
Biden will probably get the nomination, and Sander’s voters may choose Trump over Biden.

I agree that some Sanders supporters would vote for Trump. They’ll raise hell if the Dems steal the nomination from him.

She has earned the moniker: "America's Mother-in-Law."

Apologies to all of you sweet MILs out there.

She rivals Hillary as the most unlikable candidate for President in history.

Of course she is, but she’s useful to us right now:

As long as Liz is in the race, Hillary and Michelle are blocked (since their only claim is being “the female candidate”) ... plus she might take enough delegates to deny Joe and outright majority

Republicans should be supporting Liz and doing everything to make sure she stays in and does well, Operation Chaos II!!

You can be sure, right now, the Clintons and the DNC are desperately trying to get Warren to drop out

Trump culling off disgruntled, Bernie voters to possibly vote for him instead come November.

Not exactly.

Have we forgotten how Hillary and Chelsy had to dodge them bullets at the airport?

Well, she certainly does a convincing crazy socialist act that would appeal to commie lites.

I, for one, want her to cling to the bitter end. I don’t want Sanders to go to the convention with a majority of delegates. I want the rug to be ostentatiously pulled out from under him so that the Bernie fanatics in their millions will stay home in November or vote Trump or, even better, throw up an instant third party.

Sanders’ or Sanders’s. Nothing is quite “correct” here but the man’s name is Sanders, not Sander.

I like the description I saw in a comment but I imagine has been thought of in many different minds i.e. She is everyone’s vindictive ex-wife.
