Is Hillary Clinton co-opting Elizabeth Warren’s progressive message? Warren has a one-word answer: “Eh.”
The Massachusetts senator and liberal icon added to her inscrutable initial response in an interview with the New Yorker, telling the magazine: “She’s laying out her vision for the country and she deserves an opportunity to do that.”
But the opaqueness of her answer will raise eyebrows about Warren’s role as a Democratic party powerbroker as she continues to put pressure on Clinton from the left.
As the former secretary of state turns towards populism to shore up the Democratic base in her run for the White House, her rhetoric increasingly sounds like Warren’s. In an op-ed in the Des Moines Register on Monday, Clinton wrote: “The deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top. Something is wrong when CEOs earn 300 times more than a typical American worker and hedge fund managers pay a lower tax rate than a truck driver or a nurse.”
