‘I’m still cheering Bernie on,’ Elizabeth Warren says : Boston Globe

QUINCY, Mass. (AP) — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren waded deeper into the presidential primary debate Thursday, sharpening her criticism of Donald Trump and cheering on Bernie Sanders.

The Massachusetts Democrat described the Republican presidential front-runner as a failed businessman who inherited a fortune from his father and then maintained it ‘‘by cheating people, by defrauding people, and by skipping out on paying his creditors through Chapter 11’’ bankruptcy protection.



Sanders has echoed Warren’s criticism of Wall Street and rising student load debt more than any other candidate.

‘‘He’s out there. He fights from the heart. This is who Bernie is,’’ Warren said. ‘‘He has put the right issues on the table both for the Democratic Party and for the country in general so I’m still cheering Bernie on.’’

I understand and completely respect Elizabeth Warren's decision not to officially endorse anybody yet, and what she said about Bernie doesn't mean she necessarily prefers him to Hillary. But this is nice to see: he certainly does fight from the heart, and this certainly is who he is.

And I am sure that Elizabeth Warren is going to be cautious about things.
