If Hillary can muster anywhere near the outrage of Elizabeth Warren she wins easily against Trump.

Donald Trump "will never be the president of the United States."

That's the message US Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been working hard to drive home these past weeks, most notably with her unyielding tweetstorms.

But on Tuesday, speaking at the Center for Popular Democracy, Warren stepped away from the 140-character platform and made her point very clear: Trump is "a small insecure money grubber who doesn't care who gets hurt so long as he makes money off it" and "cares about no one but himself."

This was perhaps the best of many takedowns of Donald Trump during a blistering 10 minute assault on Trump and what he represents.

SENATOR ELIZABETH WARREN: The rest of us were horrified by what happened in the 2008 financial crisis, by what happened to millions of families that were forced out of their homes.

But Donald Trump was drooling at the idea of a housing melt down because it meant he could buy more property on the cheap. What kind of a man does that? What kind of a man roots for people to get thrown out of their house? What kind of a man roots for people to get thrown out of their jobs? To root for people to lose their pensions?

What kind of man does that? I will tell you exactly the kind of man. It is a man that cares about no one but himself.

What kind of a man does that? A man that will never be the president of the United States.

Can you help us out?
