The Associated Press reports: After Trump VP pick, Democrats deploy Warren as anti-Vance surrogate

"Warren offered a preview Monday of how Democrats plan to attack J.D. Vance." She "was the only elected official in a campaign call conducted shortly after Trump announced his pick. In her remarks, she focused on Vance’s economic stances, warning that he would target policies that benefit a wide swath of voters in order to provide tax cuts to the very wealthiest Americans."

Elizabeth Warren is the PERFECT person to make the case that J.D. Vance is a FAKE economic populist -- while really supporting cuts to Social Security and billionaire taxes.

Did you know Warren is up for re-election this year against a crypto millionaire? Let's make sure her campaign is funded so she can spend less time raising money and more time fighting the Trump-Vance ticket. Donate $3 or more here, with pride.

More from the Associated Press:

"Billionaires on Wall Street and Silicon Valley are cheering, but there is no joy for working people," Warren said of Vance’s selection.

Warren predicted that, as Trump’s partner, Vance would back cuts to Social Security and Medicare, citing a 2010 blog post in which Vance called benefits from those programs "the biggest roadblocks to any kind of real fiscal sanity."

"With Trump-Vance, Social Security and Medicare cuts will bear down on seniors like an avalanche," Warren warned...

Warren also accused Vance of "think[ing] sick people should pay more," citing a 2017 New York Times op-ed in which he discussed repealing the Affordable Care Act, and of opposing federal infrastructure investments, referencing a 2022 interview in which he called the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act a "huge, huge mistake."

"Trump and Vance support cuts to Social Security, Medicare, health insurance, and money that goes into roads and bridges, all to pay for a $3.5 trillion annual tax cut for billionaires," Warren said.

In the aforementioned Times op-ed, Vance endorsed repealing the ACA, but also cautioned that Republican proposals to repeal the Affordable Care Act would leave "millions…unable to pay for basic health care."

Help make sure Elizabeth Warren's re-election campaign against a crypto millionaire is funded so she can spend less time raising money and more time fighting the Trump-Vance ticket. Donate $3 or more here, with pride.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
