2. Warren's "Economic Patriotism" ideas are what gave us trump. She needs to rethink those ideas.

When you get an endorsement from Carlson, it's time to rethink things. Carlson on Warren's "Economic Patriotism:" ‘Sounds Like Donald Trump At His Best’

7. Fact is, Carlson likes her "Economic Patriotism" plan because it is Nationalism, America First, etc.

Exactly what gave us trump. That's why FOX likes her "Economic Patriotism" plan.

She needs to rethink that plan and moniker quickly.

10. What do you call "Economic Patriotism?" And, why do you think Carlson endorses it?

12. Why are you lending any credibility to Carlson?

I don't think Carlson "endorses" it. There is no way he's endorsing anything the most liberal candidate we have at the moment is saying. Elizabeth Warren is rising in the polls, so it's time to knock her back down. Comparing her to Trump knocks her down among liberals, if they're stupid enough to fall for it, and mocks her with his right-wing audience.

13. I'm not, I'm criticizing Warren for proposing anti-trade, America First, Nationalistic ideology.

There is nothing liberal about that, and in fact is one of the main factors that got us trump.

Yes, Carlson is saying he thinks Nationalism, America First is preferable to global trade. Don't like his ideals either.

I agree Warren has some great ideas otherwise, and don't understand why she took this tack the other day and came up with a name for it "Economic Patriotism" that just oozes Nationalism.

They're much more worried about Biden running against Trump than about Waarren running against Trump.
