Discussion: Elizabeth Warren To Trump: 'Put Aside Our Differences' To Rebuild Economy

What has she been smoking? On Trumps top 10 ā€œto doā€™sā€ is the elimination of the CFPB, one of Warrenā€™s major achievements. Trump is never going to work with her. Heā€™ll do everything he can to damage her and upend everything sheā€™s worked for. I guess Sen. Warren didnā€™t consider how huge the differences are before she suggested they be put aside.

Is Trumps list Republican only or does it include dems that called him thin skinned? Omarosa wasnā€™t clear on that point.

ā€œCorey, set up a meeting with Pocahontas in the rose garden. Make sure the press are there. I want to humiliate her to her face in public.ā€

She knows Trump.

What Warren said was meant to be on the record, like Clinton.

Like Obama

She knows this guy and what he will doā€¦

I have little doubt that tRump will give 'Muricans jobs. Also no doubt that he will not pay them when their work is finished.

No doubt at allā€¦

ā€œPresident-Elect Trump promised to rebuild our economy for working people"

Donā€™t be fucking dense, Lizzy. He promised to ā€œrebuild the economyā€ for WHITE people.

ā€œthose of us who supported Hillary Clinton will respect this result.ā€ā€

Democrat Rosetta Stone: ā€œJust tell me where you want to stick and how long you want me to suck it. No no, you donā€™t have to use lube if you donā€™t want to.ā€

When did we EVER hear any such statements from the GOP/Teatrolls or, more importantly, even just the behavior that would silently have spoken them?

She now needs to re-earn my vote in 2018. I have no mercy left in me.

Respecting the result is not the same as supporting what happened.

Sheā€™s just talking about the peaceful transfer of power.

The Repugs will overreachā€”itā€™s what they do, after allā€”and sheā€™ll be leading the charge against them.

Good luck Ms Warren but trump doesnā€™t do compromise. Remember who you are dealing with. This will be like explaining higher order quantum physics to a tree stump. For get it.

Folksā€¦I am becoming way too angry and bitter at way too many institutions and people. Iā€™m taking the balance of the day off. Maybe several days before I chime back in on this playground for the sane

So? She might as well be yelling at the clouds, jousting windmills with a toothpick from the back of a rocking-horseā€¦ We are now powerless. I donā€™t think people are quite ready or capable of wrapping their heads around just how starkly and abruptly that is going to be made apparent and rubbed in our faces. The subjugation hasnā€™t even begun yet. Youā€™ll see.

For the time being, yes.

And thatā€™s what all the caterwauling is about, really.

Sheā€™s doing her version of Michelle Obamaā€™s ā€œWhen they go low, we go highā€ routine.

Come 2017, I believe we can count on Warren to fight hard for us. I doubt she ā€“ or any other Senate Democrats ā€“ will be able to move anything positive or block anything disastrous* ā€“ but we can count on her to make a lot of noise and fight hard.

*Mitch McConnell will end the filibuster to totally and utterly cripple the Democrats. You can make book on that.

Almost? Have they ever been rewarded for being the ā€˜reasonableā€™ ones? I canā€™t come up with a time when that actually happened.
