Donald Trump should be a lot more careful who he decides to have a Twitter war with. Because now he’s in one with Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, and she’s winning with some devastating rhetorical blows.
Earlier in the week, Senator Warren called the Donald out as he was basking the afterglow of being the presumptive GOP nominee. Her post on Facebook pulled no punches. So Trump thought he’d try one of his patented personal insults via social media:
I hope corrupt Hillary Clinton chooses goofy Elizabeth Warren as her running mate. I will defeat them both.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 6, 2016
And then as per his usual pattern, Trump felt the need to fire a few more salvos:
Let’s properly check goofy Elizabeth Warren’s records to see if she is Native American. I say she’s a fraud!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 6, 2016
Goofy Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton’s flunky, has a career that is totally based on a lie. She is not Native American.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 6, 2016
Crooked Hillary Clinton wants completely open borders. Millions of Democrats will run from her over this and support me.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 7, 2016
Senator Warren responded with the same kind of language so often employed by the Donald:
I called out @realDonaldTrump on Tuesday. 45 million saw it. He's so confident about his "counter punch" he waited until Friday night. Lame.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
She also used Donald’s trick of posting tweets that come just minutes later and drive the knife in as deep as possible:
“Goofy,” @realDonaldTrump? For a guy with "the best words" that’s a pretty lame nickname. Weak!
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
We saw what happened when birthers like @realDonaldTrump attacked @BarackObama. They lost big. American voters knew better.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
We saw when Scott Brown attacked my family & his staff made tomahawk chops & war whoops. They lost big. MA voters knew better.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
.@realDonaldTrump spews insults and lies because he can’t have an honest conversation about his dangerous vision for America.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
But here's the thing. You can beat a bully — not by tucking tail and running, but by holding your ground.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
If you think recycling Scott Brown's hate-filled attacks on my family is going to shut me up, @realDonaldTrump, think again buddy. Weak.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
The @GOP's hate-filled lies didn’t scare me before, @realDonaldTrump. And they don't scare me now.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) May 7, 2016
Whatever @realDonaldTrump says, we won't shut up. We won't back down. This election is too important, & he won’t step foot in White House.

As you can see, Trump has met his match. We can all hope that Senator Warren is the running mate for whoever winds up winning the Democratic nomination.
