Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren may be staying quiet on the sidelines of the Democratic presidential nominating contest, but for some time now she has been loudly booing the opposition party’s sideshow and the carnival barker at centerstage, Donald Trump.

In a series of tweets after Trump won Indiana on Tuesday to become the “presumptive” nominee of the Republican Party, Warren ripped Trump’s campaign built on “racism, sexism, and xenophobia,” vowing to do everything in her power to keep the controversial candidate from winning in November:

“There’s more enthusiasm for @realDonaldTrump among leaders of the KKK than leaders of the political party he now controls,” Warren wrote on Twitter:

Warren went on to write that Trump “incites supporters to violence, praises Putin, and is ‘Cool with being called an authoritarian:'”

    Brandon, 28, "Hipster"
    This self-proclaimed "hipster" by trade — that's right, not an artisanal chocolatier or re-claimed wood whittler but a generic "hipster" — doesn't even have any tattoos. (He does list one of his best attributes as "humble," though).

    Evan, Erectile Dysfunction Expert, 33
    Believe it or not, the worst thing about Evan isn't his career. His biggest deal-breaker is: "Girls with chipped nail polish, girls who talk too much, narcissists, clingers, girls who have serious food allergies." Jabbing yourself in the leg with an Epi pen actually sounds preferable to a date with him.

    Daniel, Male Model, 31
    A "male model" who refers to his body as a "lambo" not once, but twice, in a biography that he presumably had time to mull over. (Example: "Are you comfortable wearing swimwear in public?" "Very comfortable. Why have a lambo if you park it in the garage?”)

    Nick S., Software Salesman, 26
    Not only does Nick S. take neckerchief fashion cues from Fred of "Scooby-Doo," but he lists the food he dislikes most as “scary cheeses.” Bad-mouthing cheese is like bad-mouthing our best friend. Deal-breaker, Nick S. Deal-breaker.

    Grant, Firefighter, 27
    On the one hand, Grant is the sexy firefighter of our dreams. On the other hand, his worst date memory is “Getting lunch with a girl and listening to her talk about Harry Potter for 20 minutes” — which actually doesn’t sound like enough time spent talking about the British national treasure.
