Warren is better than Trump any day.
[doublepost=1552382757][/doublepost]
Warren would destroy Trump in a general election. He's very unpopular.

I don't know, man.

One stupid Pocahontas bait and she REEEEE'd straight into identity politics, which she is bad at and which backfired spectacularly for her.

If she sticks to her guns, her economic and policy background, she could be a very popular POTUS. None of her policies have an approval rating below 50%, even with GOP voters.

It's identity politics bollocks she loses on.

...
A white woman who claims to be native american is def a loon!!!

I personally know a women who has blue eyes, very pale skin, and freckles. She is a Native American and grew up on a reservation. I don't like Warren, and I don't think she would be a good candidate against Trump, but skin color doesn't tell the whole story of ancestry. As I recall, Warren claimed that her relatives stated there was a Native American in her ancestral line, so she was relating a family story. I wonder how many stories from my family are true, if any...

In any case, I don't think a politician should comment about specific legal cases. Their job is to make laws, not lawsuits.

1/1000 basically means she had no indian ancestors. Someone from China may very well have the same fraction of similar dna. Her results showed she was lying.

Or that somebody in her family was. Either way, I personally don't care, but I won't vote for her for other reasons.
 
She had no chance. She knew she had no chance. This is a great way to kill your campaign without the embarrassment of bowing out.
 
This is absolute bull. Your type of low-brow reasoning is why we keep getting substandard presidents like Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump.

The point of voting is to cast your vote for the person who best represents you not to be on the winning side of a popularity contest.

People like YOU are the problem. YOU are the reason we have the mess we have today.
Oh honey, and people like you are the reason Trump got elected over Clinton. Because approximately 100,000 idiots in a handful of flyover states voted 3rd party instead of voting for Clinton. You live in a delusion where you are never wrong, and everything you do is right and correct. You don't even understand how our so-called democracy works. It's not about voting for who best represents your interests. It's about voting for who represents your interests *and* has the best shot at winning the electoral college. Or did you conveniently forget that you don't live in a true democracy, you live in a representative democracy. Are you smart enough to understand the difference?
Luckily, Warren is unlikely to win the nomination.
Agreed and thank goodness!
Why don't you let those of us who are 60+ make that call.

We don't need some triggered millennial speaking for us. That's the last thing we need.
"Triggered millennial" made me snort my coffee, thanks for that! :) And I'm going to be 50 this year so close enough! :)
 
Cheeto man should get a second term. Him as a person aside, give me examples of one bad thing he has done that anyone doesn't like?

Thanks for not mentioning that the thread is about Elizabeth Warren. I've heard of making women invisible and your post appears to be one of the ways to get there. :rolleyes:

Meanwhile I'll digress long enough to address your challenge on the off chance it wasn't idle:

Trump appointed Andrew Wheeler as EPA chief after his first gonzo appointment to that post proved too gonzo for even our waning standards on ethics. Wheeler is like Pruitt only without the obvious overreach on personal perks but with the far more dangerous knowledge of how to work under the radar in the legislative undermining of critically important EPA standards for clean air and water. Most Americans actually like clean air and water. So... most Americans if they ever heard of Andrew Wheeler would not like the fact that Trump appointed him and the Senate in its craven "wisdom" did confirm the appointment. The guy is not a fox in the chicken coop. He's a wolf in the kitchen dressed up as just a competent line cook, and he bears watching by the Fourth Estate.​

On the topic of the thread, Warren may not be viewed even by mainstream media as particularly suited to office of the Presidency. She's hard to soundbite effectively since she insists on talking about policy in depth. That should by no means be cause for ignoring her candidacy if the Democrats mean --as they should-- to sustain a national debate about American policies as the primary season progresses.

If Elizabeth Warren were not a woman, she'd probably be categorized more as Adlai Stevenson was, i.e. an egghead. But to double down on disqualifying a woman,,,, "Pocahontas" seems to be the tag of preference applied by some of her opponents. That she brought that tag on herself is debatable; that it should suffice to describe her career and qualifications is just nonsense. Her policy ideas deserve discussion as the Democrats thresh out what their platform and approach to the 2020 campaigns will eventually be.

Trump's an even easier target due to sexual assault, racial discrimination in housing, bankrupting multiple casinos, tax fraud (a felony), etc. Sorry buddy.
