It’s no secret that liberal leader Elizabeth Warren has her eyes set on the presidency in 2020.
Slipping poll numbers tell a different story for the Democratic senator from Massachusetts, however.

Warren’s re-election in 2018 was thrown into question by a shocking poll in late January. According to a local poll, only 44 percent of Warren’s constitutes think she “deserves reelection” while 46 percent said it was time to throw her out of office and “give someone else a chance.”
Despite to reinforce her shaken base, Warren has stepped up her anti-Trump rhetoric in reponse.
Friday, the outspoken liberal took to the internet to declare “victory” for liberals over Trump’s healthcare reform — and followed up her remarks with a nasty attack against Trump.
But I'm not doing a touchdown dance today. Not when the GOP is still hell-bent on rigging the system for the rich & powerful.

She didn’t see Trump Jr’s reply coming, however.
His reply to Warren’s statement quickly went viral… and it completely destroyed Warren’s sad attempt to appeal to the average American voter.
Ha, you mean like someone who was paid almost $500,000.00 to "teach" one class a semester at Harvard? #DoAsISayNotAsIDo https://t.co/8OpNksJQhl

The impact was immediately apparent.
Trump Jr’s response received over four times the amount of re-tweets and more than twice the likes that Warren’s bragging tweet.
Is this a sign that even non-conservative Americans are finally sick of multimillionaire Democrats deciding what is best for them?
After all, a recent poll by The Horn News showed 97% of our readers agreed that it’s time to throw Warren out of Washington, D.C.
One thing is clear — Warren isn’t doing herself any favors with these attacks.
Maybe it’s time she kept it to herself.
