21. "I want Warren in the Senate"?

Fri Jan 6, 2017, 07:30 PM

Jan 2017

Warren IS in the Senate...and soon Twitler will be in the White House.

I'd rather have had President-elect Clinton and Vice-President-elect Warren,
(although I would have preferred Vice President-elect Sanders)

Hillary Clinton essentially said "Screw You" to the 13 million Democrats who voted for Sanders when she chose ConservaDem Kaine for her running mate...(that's my opinion)

Oh, and by the way, if Clinton had picked Sanders as her running mate, Sen. Warren would likely be in a DEMOCRAT-controlled Senate now....since the GOP had 3 times as many Senate seats to defend as did the Dems.

Also, don't forget...in spite of choosing Kaine, Hillary Clinton was ahead of Trump by at least 11 points when FBI Director Comey committed treason and violated the Hatch Act, thereby handing the presidency to that Orange Anti-Christ.
