Just keep bringing this up..the more you do the less people in the middle will care and the more political chance you give her.

This kind of dopey nonsense might make a bunch of fools in a right wing echo chamber giggle, but it becomes very tiring to anyone else.

Even is she didn't mention him by name it sounds to me like everyone knows who she was talking about.


This is not like a Trump speech at a rally where people can chose to attend. Spreading your politic beliefs does not belong in the classroom and it does not belong as part of a graduation ceremony.
Trump made veiled comments in his Liberty University commencement. In them he talked about how voices control Washington. Sadly he is now part of the problem he spoke of. He also spoke of being a warrior for truth...

I know that each of you will be a warrior for the truth, will be a warrior for our country, and for your family. I know that each of you will do what is right, not what is the easy way, and that you will be true to yourself, and your country, and your beliefs. In my short time in Washington I've seen firsthand how the system is broken. A small group of failed voices who think they know everything and understand everyone want to tell everybody else how to live and what to do and how to think.

Hey, I didn't bring it up. She brought it upon herself claiming to be an Indian to get privileges that other did not get.

And as a person who is in the center I am sick and tired of her rants.

There’s nothing to fear but the President of the United States himself.

That’s the message Mass. Sen. Elizabeth Warren sent to graduates of the University of Massachusetts Amherst on Friday during what was supposed to be a commencement speech. But what quickly became a 15-minute lectures on the horrors of the Trump administration.

So she essentially admits she's a child. Adults, after all, can exercise a little self-control. The irony of her calling the Trump DOJ the "obstruction of justice department" after the Holder and Lynch years is pretty darn priceless.
thank God my kids had brains enough not to even consider schools like Amherst:the same with my grand kids. Elizabeth Warren is soon to become her own worst enemy.

She ought to resign, if she can't help herself.
