Unlike Bernie, nobody in the mainstream media wants to attack Warren, and that's scaring Trump.
A very funny dynamic is beginning to emerge in the 2020 presidential race, and at the heart of it is the conflict between Trump Republicans—who want mainstream/liberal media to do their dirty work on various Democratic candidates during primary season—and mainstream media itself, which is loathe to criticize Elizabeth Warren no matter how many stories the opposition pushes.
The frustration Republicans are beginning to feel about Warren’s non-stick nature was picked up repeatedly in interviews with 10 Republicans, including Trump campaign and White House officials, associates of the president, and other GOP operatives with knowledge of the situation. These sources stressed that the anti-Warren effort within GOP circles hadn’t fallen off since the DNA snafu.
“Sure the Republican base will ultimately loathe Warren, but she doesn’t inspire the same kind of historic vitriol thatdid,” a separate Republican strategist said. “That, combined with fact that SCOTUS isn’t on the line as it was in ’16, and remembering that Trump needed the perfect inside straight to barely win last time, and any Democrat is going to be tough to beat, Warren included.
Good question! To the extent that the general election will be decided by strength of personality, Trump is going to want to make his opponent, whoever it is, look weak. After the DNA debacle, it appeared like he had done exactly that with Warren, who played into his taunting and managed to embarrass herself. Since then, things have changed…or they seem to have changed, anyway.primary, and at this point isn’t having to face Trump voters or independents in great numbers.
