Sen. Elizabeth Warren – once one of the Democrat president’s farthest opponents nominated Joe Biden during the primary season – praised the former vice president’s ‘really good plans’ during a speech at the Democratic National Convention.
“I love a good plan, and Joe Biden has some really good plans – plans to bring unions back in making and creating new unions in clean energy,” Warren said from a Massachusetts classroom. “Plans to increase Social Security benefits, cancel billions in student loan debt, and create our bankruptcy laws for families instead of the creditors they cheat.”
But the former teacher and Harvard professor said Biden’s one plan is particularly close to her heart regarding childcare.

“We are building infrastructure such as roads, bridges and communication systems so that people can work,” she said. “That infrastructure helps us all, because it drives our economy. It is time to recognize that childcare is part of the basic infrastructure of this nation – it is infrastructure for families. ‘
Warren added: “Joe and [vice presidential nominee] Kamala [Harris] will make high-quality childcare affordable for every household, make nursery universal and increase the pay for every childcare worker. “
While the progressive Warren was critical of Biden during the debate during the primaries, she soon ran for office after leaving her own bid in the White House in March.
The Massachusetts Democrat may have made changes with Biden, but her vitriol to President Trump has not died.
On a night when most convention speakers exercised their rights to tout Biden and Harris – and less so to the president’s bashing – Warren lay in Trump’s handling of the new coronavirus pandemic and the economic fallout that came with it.

“Donald Trump’s ignorance and incompetence have always been a danger to our country,” Warren said. “COVID-19 was Trump’s biggest test. He failed miserably. Today, America has the most COVID deaths in the world and an economic collapse – and both crisis cases hit the Black and Brown families the hardest.
She added: “This crisis is bad – and need not be so. This crisis is on Donald Trump and the Republicans who turn him in. On November 3, we will hold them all accountable.”
The Trump campaign hits back at Warren – saying the progressive legislator wants to use Biden as a “Trojan horse” for a left-wing agenda and asked questions about why Warren Biden did not shake up the allegations of sexual assault against him .
“Elizabeth Warren sees Joe Biden for what he really is: an empty ship for her left-wing agenda,” the Trump campaign said in a statement. “Warren is just like Kamala Harris – a total pony.”
