Elizabeth Warren is expected to endorse Hillary Clinton on the same day President Barack Obama announced his support for the presumptive Democratic nominee.
The news, first reported by The Boston Globe, comes amid rumors that the Clinton campaign is hoping to court the US senator from Massachusetts as her running mate. Warren plans to make the announcement Thursday night on MSNBC’s The Rachel Maddow Show.
"I have the highest regard for Senator Warren," Clinton recently told Politico. "I think she is an incredible public servant, eminently qualified for any role. I look forward to working with her on behalf of not only the campaign and her very effective critique of Trump, but also on the issues that she and I both care about.”
The progressive senator has also shared snippets of a speech as she plans to attack the presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump on Thursday. She’s expected to grill the reality television star and real-estate mogul on the pending lawsuits against the now defunct Trump University.
"Judge Gonazalo Curiel has survived far worse than Donald Trump,” the speech reads, according to CNN. “He has survived actual assassination attempts. He'll have no problem surviving Trump's nasty temper tantrums.”
Senator Warren will blame Mich McConnell and Paul Ryan for encouraging Trump’s behavior that’s led him to call the judge both “a hater” and “a Mexican.”
