By now you probably know that far-left Senator Elizabeth Warren is one of the most vocal opponents of President Trump’s agenda, seeing it as the perfect opportunity to launch a 2020 presidential bid.
For years, Warren has been engaged in political stunts aimed at increasing her national profile, although most of her recent actions do little other than reaffirm how far-left her political views really are. Take the confirmation of Senator Jeff Sessions as Attorney General. Senator Warren took to the Senate floor to verbally attack her colleague, and proceeded to violate Senate rules.
As a result, the Senate officially silenced Warren for her attacks, which resulted in the liberal media rushing to her defense, portraying her as a victim of Republican attacks. Even former-President Barack Obama refused to fall for one of Warren’s political stunts, and sharply criticized his fellow Democrat in 2015 as just another “politician” for opposing TPP.
Warren pulled yet another political stunt just a few weeks ago, when she refused to shake hands with Betsy DeVos following a contentious hearing over her nomination to lead the Department of Education.
If one thing’s clear, Senator Warren is taking it upon herself to be the Democrat opposition to President Trump. But how are her juvenile antics playing with the rest of America? Sadly for Ms. Warren, not so well. As of now, her 2020 prospects don’t look so hot.
In a new poll conducted by Morning Consult and Politico, President Trump leads Senator Warren in a hypothetical 2020 match-up, 42-36%.
From The Daily Caller:
Warren isn’t doing well in her own district. A poll published by WBUR last month reveals that only 44 percent of all residents in her home state of Massachusetts believe that the progressive senator deserves re-election to her current post.
The Morning Consult poll reveals that voters nationwide feel the same way, at least for now.
Trump still performs better in the Morning Consult approval ratings compared to other polls. Trump earned a 49 percent approval rating, with 45 percent disapproving of the job he has done so far since the inauguration.
For all of the public attention Elizabeth Warren has sought in her recent battles with President Trump, the American people are not buying her political stunts. The only publicity Warren gets is from her fellow Democrats and their allies in the liberal media, while the rest of America opposes her brand of politics.
On the other hand, Warren being the face of the Democrat Party is good news for Republicans. The more independent and moderate voters identify the Democrats with socialists or near-socialists, the better their political future looks.
Is she ready for this?
