While Donald Trump may have perfected the early morning rage tweetstorm, Senator Elizabeth Warren has possibly perfected the Trump response tweetstorm. On Friday, Warren took to her Twitter account yet again to call out the media mogul for his disparaging comments regarding Alicia Machado.
This is not the first time the two have tussled over social media. Warren is no stranger to the Twitter barrage, as she called out Trump in July for his selection of Mike Pence as vice president and some of his policies, and the Massachusets Senator has never been shy about letting her feelings be known. This time around she called him out for his disparaging remarks against Machado, which he did in the early hours of Friday morning:
For those few people knocking me for tweeting at three o'clock in the morning, at least you know I will be there, awake, to answer the call!

Trump has doubled down on his comments regarding Machado, calling out her weight and insinuating she has a sex tape floating around. Machado has defended herself pretty nicely, but she is getting a little help from others. Warren was quick to call out the absurdity of Trump venting so late at night and the inflammatory remarks he has directed at Machado. Senator Warren, have at it:
Is this what keeps you up at night, @realDonaldTrump? Thinking of new & interesting ways to call women fat or ugly or sluts?

You never tweet at 3am with ways to help students getting crushed by debt or seniors struggling on Social Security, @realDonaldTrump.

You never tweet at 3am with ways to create new jobs for workers or hold Wall Street accountable, @realDonaldTrump.

Nope, @realDonaldTrump: the only things that keep your mind racing at night are your next racist, sexist tweets & disgusting lies.

A thin-skinned bully who thinks humiliating women at 3am qualifies him to be President does not understand America & is not fit to lead.

Those were some mighty hot takes and Warren always seems to have other ones on deck. While she is not going toe-to-toe with Trump in November, Warren is firmly in Clinton’s corner and has Trump’s opponents’ backs.
