    Jeet Heer Retweeted Tuxedo Mask

    Good thread of a great 2004 interview with Elizabeth Warren -- displaying the command of facts & economic analysis that make her the most impressive candidate running for president.https://twitter.com/TheLoveBel0w/status/1125600141694701568 …

    Tuxedo Mask @TheLoveBel0w
    In this '04 interview, @ewarren tried to warn us of the coming crash. Here are 4 clips. "Alan Greenspan, our national economic leader, stood up for the last 4 years and told Americans 'borrow against your house.' What frightens me is millions of Americans have taken that advice" pic.twitter.com/qeO8xHz5jq

        Do Americans want the best person or the most likely person to beat Trump?

        The “most likely” question is a fake choice. Were that the case we’d have exclusively white men in power making laws that only benefit white people....as we’ve had for a majority of the existence of the country

        The loosening of underwriting standards driven by progressive politics - affordable housing requirements imposed quotas on mortgage originators in order to push marginal loans to lower income households.

        Austerity programs? That’s not in any way how I would describe her plans. The GOP wants that though. Slash Medicare, cut Social Security, etc. She wants the opposite. Sanders can’t tell us how he will do anything in the meantime. His plans are based on the same ideals w/out a map

        She is no dummy, but her desperation for making herself relevant to young socialist leaning Dem voters is leading to bad policy recommendations - a reparations bill would be a terribly divisive idea

        I know that you're not among those likely to fall for it, but always be wary of the 2016 syndrome, according to which the most competent candidate will necessarily be elected.
