Leader of the Persistence Elizabeth Warren’s full-body fight to defeat Trump.
The Cut ^ | July 22, 2018 | Rebecca Traister

It was unremittingly hot at the farm in Natick, Massachusetts, where 1,500 people had gathered on the Sunday after the Fourth of July. Remarkably, this crowd had assembled under a blistering sun not for a free concert, or outdoor theater, or even a protest, exactly. They’d come for an open-air town hall with their sitting senator, a 69-year-old woman widely expected to win reelection to her second term this fall. Standing at the back of the sweaty throng, I’d seen her introduced from the stage, then heard cheers greeting her entrance, but couldn’t for the life of me lay eyes on her. Not until I climbed onto the seat of my folding chair in the press section. There she was, jogging 75 yards down a hill in open-toed mules, her aqua cardigan flying behind her.

Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren is in constant motion. She often takes stages at a run, zigzagging around the edges of crowds, waving and giving high fives like Bruce Springsteen. Speaking to groups of supporters, she rocks on her feet, or rises to her tiptoes, with feeling; occasionally she tucks her mic under her arm to clap for herself or cuts the air in front of her with her flat palm. She’ll beat her chest for emphasis, speak so passionately that she gets winded, and throw a fist in the air as a symbol of defiance and determination. One afternoon in Nevada, perched on a punishingly high stool in front of several hundred people at a brewery, she kicked her feet out in front of her with such force that I feared she’d tip over backward.

Watching Warren this steamy summer as she works to move her party through the perilous wilderness of the Donald Trump administration, through the midterms....

A "crowd" of 1,500 in her home state? The guy who butchers fish at a Trump restaurant or Barron's soccer coach would draw a bigger turnout. How many were members of her tribe?

Is this supposed to be a reporters article, or a love story?
Barf.

The sad truth is that she WILL win re-election, because the super majority of Massachusetts voters are far leftist. It won’t be close. Massachusetts is a lost cause for everything non-leftist.

Man ! What a waste of electronic ink...long winded B.S. over a brain dead carpetbagger . Warren IS an idiot who could give a crap about any of her moronic constituents but they are to blind to even realize it . I was raised in Massachusets from 62-79 ...it used to be a great place until the Kennedys started their shite and Ted that drunken ass , well you know the rest of the story . Warren exists politically because the electorate is so beaten down with sooooo many leftist college educated no real world talents I got a diploma and a government/college position types telling them whats in their best interest while the thieves in office pillage the crazy taxation ...it is lost and I believe beyond redemption...her being elected speaks volumes as to how stupid most of the voters are....I hate the C....bitch.

"...Elizabeth Warren’s full-body fight..."

Somehow, this made me feel vaguely nauseous.

Sounds like she is trying to channel her Indian heritage.

But mainly b/c of voter fraud. MA has teams of fake write-ins on stand by, once the challenger has been counted, the rigged Dem (Warren in this case) will have the exact number of votes to beat. The Dem machine does it for thier public Union supporters like Warren. Its how the Boston Mayor, West Roxbury Mayor, etc. get “voted in”.
Myth Romney did the same voter fraud write in too.

Hillary was Obama’s “Pickett’s Charge” and his War against the Union to Insutite a communist society, is now without a president or generals, just a few holdouts like comrade Bernie and his Indian allies, taking Scalp here and there. The high tide of their War on Capitalism is past, and the “free shoes” for their army so importantly sought has “left” their followers without uNIon finance. The media and some of their staff g through out the Federal Govt are being ferreted out because the Coup is slowly breaking news in slow drumroll by a Trump-unpnt President. The populace in rebellion hears daily a trickle of corruption which is breaking the ranks of a the last remaining few good men on the Left. Even the Indian is not ethnically more than a whitewash of History.

The Beaver

Beavers are among the largest living rodents in the world.  They have thick fur, webbed feet and flattened, scale-covered tails.  With powerful jaws and strong teeth, they fell trees in order to build homes and dams, often changing their environment in ways few other animals can.

More than most other environments, wetlands depend heavily on beaver dams. ...  Although beavers play an important role in the ecosystem, they can also cause problems that are sometimes more than a nuisance.  Beaver dams can actually cause flooding. This can wipe out land that farmers need for crops or livestock.

 

The Gray Beaver

The Gray Beaver is among the most destructive RATS in Congress.  She has a thick wallet thanks to crony payoffs.  With her loud mouth and unhinged anger at free market activity, she pushes for regulations and swamps that redirect the flow of money from taxpayers and corporate fines into the pockets of RAT special interest groups.

More than most other obstructions to healthy economic activity, swamps depend heavily on the regulatory dams created by Gray Beavers.  They cause a further nuisance by buttressing the Big Government ecosystem.  Gray Beaver interference also destroys working class jobs and floods the marketplace with illegal aliens wiping out prosperity in the inner cities and discouraging enterpreneurs from starting new businesses.

I would love it if the Democrats wer stupid enough to nominate Squaw Grey Beaver. Trump will continue to ridicule her and will beat her hands down.

Hagawatha is laying low; that’s why she isn’t drawing much of a crowd. You know, sneak up on the field with great stealth, then spring into action at the last minute.

Massive two chits has always sucked right down to the religious fanatic refuse that washed up on its shore several years after Jamestown was founded.

I don't think Mrs. Clinton is going to run again, but if she were, this is how you would know. Something discrediting to Warren would have to pop up at a crucial juncture, so that that Mrs. Clinton would be the only seasoned female left to turn to. The discrediting event would have to come from one or more places that wouldn't be traceable to Mrs. Clinton itself, but maybe to some of her friends (Sidney Blumenthal types)

That's not seasoning she's pickled.
