Easy to understand why so many people dislike (or supposedly fear) Elizabeth Warren. Hillary may at least try to be diplomatic. Liz, not so much. I'd hope we'd all approve of her being tough on regulators.

“No one has been more tougher on Wells Fargo than myself. No one has been more outspoken.”
“You mean at the OCC? That’s a low bar."
“I would disagree with that. I find it insulting that you would make that comment.”
“Good.”

I've had to deal with and seen first hand the damage that grandstanding politicians can do to things in their state when they wrap themselves in the populist cape of regulatory hero while trying to further their own political ambitions.

Beware the dog and pony shows of congress and the senate whenever tv cameras are rolling.

We need good and fair regulation of aspects of commerce in this country to be sure, politicians are one of the greatest threats to that lol.

In Massachusetts she's just fine.... fits right in politically and socially. Put her in Arkansas is she's a know nothing misfit with a big city approach to life. She ran from her roots and people know it and it shows. She has a manufactured personality that matches what's trending politically.

Thank God for the electoral college.... looking forward. Hey Lieawatha ... Wanna beer? She would be political fodder for President Trump.

I support her request. She can deliver it however she wants. The guy didn't budge because she didn't have the power to make him. Trump can be insulting, more often and more insulting. Of course she would consider herself tougher on Wells Fargo than Otting. And she'd be right.

Shes a complete loser. Another academic who's never signed the front of a paycheck. If the nominee, Trump will trounce her handily.
