Elizabeth Warren has always described herself as a “fighter,” someone unafraid to take on corporate interests and even members of her own party to demand what she believes is right. Her pugnacious willingness to methodically shred CEOs and Wall Street Executives, after all, is what, in the late 2000s, built her base of supporters and made her a phenom—even before she entered the Senate. Which is why her campaign over the past few months has been so curiously out of line with the Elizabeth Warren we thought we knew, and so dispiriting. Warren the fighter turned into Warren the uniter, a candidate who has tried to remain above the fray and ended up pleasing few except her most dedicated supporters, looking oddly weak along the way. It’s as if a terrible advisor whispered in her ear that voters don’t like angry, aggressive women, and she took it to heart, despite her righteous anger being one of the qualities that many find so appealing about her.\n

She began by eviscerating Bloomberg. “I’d like to talk about who we’re running against: a billionaire who calls women ‘fat broads’ and ‘horse-faced lesbians,’” Warren said. “And no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump, I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.” She continued: “Look, I’ll support whoever the democratic nominee is, but understand this: Democrats take a huge risk if we just substitute one arrogant billionaire for another.
the NDAs his company forced women to sign—Warren was ready with a takedown. On stop-and-frisk: “This isn’t about how it turned out, this is about what it was designed to do to begin with. It targeted communities of color. It targeted black and brown men from the beginning,” Warren replied when he attempted to apologize. When Bloomberg attempted to paint himself as a friend to women, Warren was ready: “I hope you heard his defense. ‘I’ve been nice to some women.’ That just doesn’t cut it.
