Warren: Trump a 'selfish little sleaze ball'

Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders appeared together Sunday at a campaign event for Hillary Clinton in Denver, and tore into Donald Trump as they pressed Clinton's case to college students.

Warren called the Republican Party's presidential nominee a "selfish little sleaze ball" who "will never be president of the United States." She sought to convince millennial voters -- who have remained somewhat resistant to Clinton after her contentious primary fight with Sanders -- that his efforts to move the party left had been rewarded.

"I am proud of the debate that Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton had in our primary, way to go. I am proud that we are party that doesn't debate who has the smallest hands, or who can build the longest, tallest, fake gold-plated wall in the world. I'm proud that we are not looking for the most obscene way to demean women," Warren said.

The progressive firebrand also pointed to the 2016 Democratic platform, which included a series of policy compromises hammered out by the Sanders and Clinton camps ahead of the party's convention, as an example of what a unified party could achieve.

...a HUGE Tweetstorm on him right before the debate! Get under his thin skin, and watch him explode. If he's seething going into a debate, he's gonna go down like a big orange bomb!

... at 6' 3" or whatever, but he is a small-minded, petty little male child. He has no right to call himself a man.

I love that Warren emphasized what a unified party can achieve.

Let's win the house and senate and elect the most liberal people in every local and state election!
