Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Sunday shot back at Donald Trump after the presumptive GOP presidential nominee said she needs to prove she’s not a “fraud” and accused her of lying about her heritage.
“Nasty name-calling & lies about my family aren’t going to shut me up, @realDonaldTrump,” Warren tweeted.
“Is that really all you’ve got?”

Warren then launched into a series of tweets in which she attempted to cast Trump as a fraud, citing a series of articles in which the presumptive GOP nominee has been accused of fraud regarding Trump University.
Pres Reagan’s Solicitor General was the Harvard prof who hired me, @realDonaldTrump. He says your right-wing conspiracy theories are a lie.

It might blow your mind that a woman worked hard & earned a good job on her own, @realDonaldTrump, but it’s not the 1800s. It happens.

Warren ended her rant by calling Trump “nothing but a thin-skinned bully and a lousy, cheating businessman.”

Warren has taken on an attack-dog role against Trump. On Saturday, she slammed Trump and his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, calling the team, “two small, insecure, weak men.”
Trump shot back Sunday morning, saying that presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton should choose Warren as her running mate so that “we can litigate her fraud.” He said Warren would be “nothing” if she “didn’t lie about her heritage (being Native American).”
Warren is reportedly on the shortlist to be Clinton’s running mate. She met with Clinton on Friday in Washington, D.C., amid reports that Clinton is getting close to making a decision.
