BOSTON (AP) – Elizabeth Warren fired off a series of tweets Tuesday mocking her U.S. Senate colleague Ted Cruz for an email listing sacrifices Cruz has made on the campaign trail – from time away from his family to sleep deprivation.
“Are you kidding me,” Warren said in one tweet, “We’re supposed to pity you because trying to be the leader of the free world is hard?! 2 words: Boo hoo.”
In another Warren chided the Republican presidential hopeful from Texas saying that while he chose to make sacrifices, working people don’t have a choice.
Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat, pointed to mothers who drop their kids off at daycare only to find their work hours canceled – a problem she said Republicans haven’t helped to address.
“Working people work more, get paid less, can’t save, get mistreated, struggle with illness & family – but they don’t whine,” Warren tweeted.
