Sen. Elizabeth Warren has taken to Twitter again to bash Donald Trump, the latest in a series of Internet “tweetstorms” calling Trump on the carpet for his treatment of women and his insults toward her.

The Massachusetts Democrat has far fewer followers than Trump and she is a cleaner Twitter fighter than the bombastic billionaire. But she is scrappy.

“Your policies are dangerous. Your words are reckless. Your record is embarrassing. And your free ride is over,” @elizabethforma tweeted to her 399K followers on Wednesday, capping her latest volley.

.@realDonaldTrump: Your policies are dangerous. Your words are reckless. Your record is embarrassing. And your free ride is over.

— Elizabeth Warren (@ewarren) May 11, 2016

 

Warren’s Wednesday missives came shortly after @realDonaldTrump lobbed a couple of anti-Warren tweets to his 8.1M followers. “Goofy Elizabeth Warren has been one of the least effective Senators in the entire U.S. Senate. She has done nothing!” Trump tweeted.

A few days ago, Trump bragged on the medium that he was driving her “nuts.”

On Wednesday, Warren wrote: “No, @realDonaldTrump – your racism, sexism & xenophobia doesn’t drive me nuts. It makes me sick. And I’m not alone.”
