Elizabeth Warren lashes out at Trump for mocking #MeToo movement

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has fired back after President Trump made a joke about the #MeToo movement at a campaign-style rally in Montana.

Warren reacted to Trump’s comment in an email to her supporters, The Hill reports.

“He mocked women who are bravely coming forward and saying that they’ve been harassed and abused by guys just like Donald Trump,” Warren noted. “Donald Trump isn’t just trying to scare me — he’s trying to bully all women and make us all shut up. He still doesn’t think guys like him should be held accountable for what they say or do.”

At the Thursday’s rally, Trump also called Warren “Pocahontas,” while slamming his potential Democratic opponents for the 2020 presidential race.

Trump and his supporters have taken to calling her that name due to their skepticism that she, as claimed, has Native American ancestry.

“Let’s say I’m debating Pocahontas, right? I promise you I’ll do this,” Trump said in his speech. “I will take, you know, those little kits they sell on television for $2…and in the middle of the debate…we will take that little kit, but we have to do it gently because we’re in the #MeToo generation…we will slowly toss it hoping it doesn’t hit her…and we will say, ‘I will give you a million dollars to your favorite charity paid for by Trump, if you take the test and it shows you’re an Indian.’”
