Sen. Elizabeth Warren has launched into a series of personal attacks against Donald Trump, doing it in a way that will only help him. It might solidify the Democratic Party base against Trump a little bit, but it's not like they needed more reasons to vote against him.

On the other hand, Warren is a Harvard University elitist who's turned against her supposed blue collar origins and who now supports illegal immigration and other policies that harm American workers. Trump supporters see Trump as an antidote to people like her. They're wrong about that (see his name's link), but that's what they think. Her shrill personal attacks help solidify the Trump base and will probably result in him getting more support than he would otherwise.

One such attack included the following [1]:

Donald Trump is a loud, nasty, thin-skinned fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and who serves no one but himself... You should be ashamed of yourself, ashamed... Ashamed for using the megaphone of a presidential campaign to attack a judge’s character and integrity simply because you think you have some God-given right to steal people’s money and get away with it. You shame yourself and you shame this great country...

The GOP hides the real reason for their opposition to Warren (probably because her pro-consumer policies would impact their donors) behind idiocy like "Fauxcahontas". Likewise, Warren is hiding the real reason those like her dislike Trump: his immigration and trade policies are a challenge to the NeoLiberal immigration and trade policies those in Warren's class consider sacrosanct. The way Trump does things wouldn't hold those like Warren accountable, but that's beside the point. His policies, as stupidly as he's presented them, are a threat to those in Warren's class. Warren can't make a valid argument for her policies, so she's forced to rant and rave about personal issues.

10/1/16 UPDATE: Here are five smart ways Trump could undercut Elizabeth Warren. How many of them is he doing? (Hint: zero).

However, as dumb as Trump is, Warren isn't capable of learning. Here are some of her more recent content-free ad hominems that are comforting to the "liberal" base but will have zero impact on Trump. From her @elizabethforma account:

Sep 30 Is this what keeps you up at night, @realDonaldTrump? Thinking of new & interesting ways to call women fat or ugly or sluts?

Sep 30 A thin-skinned bully who thinks humiliating women at 3am qualifies him to be President does not understand America & is not fit to lead.

I'll let the reader decide how to characterize someone who'd say such things, but she obviously has unresolved emotional issues. She's also not smart enough to figure out how to undercut Trump to his base or his possible supporters.
