Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) tore into Donald Trump on Wednesday, upping her fiery rhetoric against the presumptive GOP presidential nominee.

{mosads}”We get it, @realDonaldTrump: When a woman stands up to you, you’re going to call her a basket case. Hormonal. Ugly,” Warren tweeted.

“Do you think you’re going to shut us up, @realDonaldTrump?” she asked in another tweet, one of several. “Think again. It’s time to answer for your dangerous ideas.”

“Your policies are dangerous. Your words are reckless. Your record is embarrassing. And your free ride is over.”

The barrage of tweets directed at Trump came after the presumptive GOP nominee reiterated his attack on her as “goofy” and accused her of getting “nothing” done in the Senate.

Goofy Elizabeth Warren didn’t have the guts to run for POTUS. Her phony Native American heritage stops that and VP cold.

Trump’s Wednesday tweet appeared to be a response after Warren declined to rule out being Hillary Clinton’s running mate.

The two sparred last week in a series of social media attacks, with Trump claiming he wanted Warren to be Clinton’s VP because it would hurt the Democratic ticket.
