Warren Tells Trump to ‘Put on Your Big-Boy Pants’ and Stop ‘Whining’ About Rigged Elections
Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren got in a prebuttal to tonight’s presidential debate when she unleashed a new tweetstorm against Donald Trump.
Warren has long been viewed as one of the Democratic Party’s most forceful proponents, and she has sparred with Trump numerous times throughout the election cycle. On Wednesday, Warren went on the offensive and said that Trump is a “sore loser” who would rather shout about voter fraud and rigged elections instead of accepting the outcome for what it is:
Give me a break, @realDonaldTrump. You’re not losing because it’s rigged. You’re losing because we see through your creepy bullying.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
Anyone with children knows that whining about imaginary cheating is the last refuge of the sore loser, @realDonaldTrump.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
You can’t run a campaign based on hating women, African Americans, Muslims & immigrants & expect to win, @realDonaldTrump.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
It's not rigged, @realDonaldTrump. You're losing fair & square. Put on your big-boy pants because this is what accountability looks like.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
Eventually, Warren turned her attention to the Republican Party, saying that Trump’s raving is a by-product of what they’ve been doing for years.
But @realDonaldTrump didn’t come up with the “rigged” election himself. It’s a longtime effort by the @GOP to delegitimize @TheDemocrats.

It’s fascinating, @realDonaldTrump: “voter fraud” only seems to plague places where lots of people might vote for @TheDemocrats.
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
And @realDonaldTrump’s antics – like attacking judges & calling for his opponent’s imprisonment – echo the @HouseGOP’s witch hunts.

Read my @washingtonpost op-ed about how @realDonaldTrump didn’t invent the “rigged election” myth. The @GOP did: https://t.co/ay6gF6YKqZ
— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) October 19, 2016
In her op-ed, Warren states that the GOP frequently pumps up voter fraud in order to create “manufactured hysteria” whenever they lose political power.
Numerous figures, including several conservatives, have stated that the evidence suggests that the election will be fair, and that Trump needs to re-focus on the issues.
