Elizabeth Warren puts Donald Trump in his place, calling him a "loser."

It's the burn felt round the world: Elizabeth Warren posted a strongly worded message today, calling out Trump for his narcissism and hatred of women and people of color. She brought up his bankruptcies, and discussed how Trump is dangerous for America.

Here is her post from earlier today:
"Let’s be honest – Donald Trump is a loser. Count all his failed businesses. See how he kept his father’s empire afloat by cheating people with scams like Trump University and by using strategic corporate bankruptcy (excuse me, bankruptcies) to skip out on debt. Listen to the experts who’ve concluded he’s so bad at business that he might have more money today if he’d put his entire inheritance into an index fund and just left it alone.  

 Trump seems to know he’s a loser. His embarrassing insecurities are on parade: petty bullying, attacks on women, cheap racism, and flagrant narcissism. But just because Trump is a loser everywhere else doesn’t mean he’ll lose this election. People have been underestimating his campaign for nearly a year – and it’s time to wake up. 

 People talk about how "this is the most important election" in our lifetime every four years, and it gets stale. But consider what hangs in the balance. Affordable college. Accountability for Wall Street. Healthcare for millions of Americans. The Supreme Court.  Big corporations and billionaires paying their fair share of taxes.  Expanded Social Security. Investments in infrastructure and medical research and jobs right here in America. The chance to turn our back on the ugliness of hatred, sexism, racism and xenophobia. The chance to be a better people.  

 More than anyone we’ve seen before come within reach of the presidency, Donald Trump stands ready to tear apart an America that was built on values like decency, community, and concern for our neighbors. Many of history’s worst authoritarians started out as losers – and Trump is a serious threat. The way I see it, it’s our job to make sure he ends this campaign every bit the loser that he started it."

*insert overzealous applause here*

My Two Cents:

Thank you, Elizabeth Warren, for saying what all of us with a brain are thinking. Trump is a serious threat to not only us, but the rest of the world. There will be anarchy if Trump gets elected. I've done some research to find out what the rest of the world thinks about Trump, and he is NOT highly favored. No one likes this guy. If he gets elected, they might as well move that Doomsday Clock to 12 midnight, because there will be hell on earth.
I already knew that racism and sexism still existed in our culture. I had no idea that it was this bad. It's almost as if Trump triggered the inner a**hole in these people, and now they are roaming the streets like zombies.

I love how Elizabeth Warren brought up the values that America was brought up on: decency, community, and concern for our neighbors. That is the America that I believe in. I'm not sure how I feel about THIS America.

I know I've said this in all of my political posts, but I'm going to drive it down until everyone does it: Get out there and vote. We cannot have a Trump dictatorship, or a Cruz dictatorship. I don't want to see the demise of our country in this lifetime.

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%. Most of the restaurants featured earlier in the series have since closed. Here is a list of the restaurants that have closed: Bella Luna Mangia Mangia Kati Allo Old Neighborhood Restaurant Amy's Baking Company (YAY!)
