Sen. Warren warns another economic crash could be around the corner
The 2020 Democrat hopeful lays out her plan to avoid a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis; Peter Doocy reports from Washington.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has revealed that she would have accepted an offer to be Hillary Clinton's running mate during the 2016 election.
In an interview with Bloomberg Business published on Thursday, the 2020 presidential candidate was asked about her support for the former secretary of state, who she endorsed after Clinton was officially given the nomination, instead of her progressive colleague, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
“I thought it was the right thing to do,” Warren said defending her decision
According to Bloomberg Business, there was a "good rapport" between Warren and Clinton and campaign advisors said Clinton strongly considered Warren to be her vice president, but instead gave the position to Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va.
