Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacked Donald Trump on Saturday over a released recording of him boasting about sexual assault, joining a chorus of Democrats hoping to use the recording to doom Trump’s candidacy.

But Warren also went after Mike Pence, Trump’s running mate and the person who many Republicans are calling on to take over the top of the GOP ticket.


"Some GOP candidates are in panic mode, even announcing that they’ll vote instead for Mike Pence — an extremist governor infamous for trying to defund Planned Parenthood and pass some of the most outrageous anti-abortion legislation in the country,” the liberal senator from Massachusetts wrote in a fundraising email to supporters.

Warren’s email, titled “Women will stop Trump,” asked supporters to donate to four Democratic women in competitive Senate races: Katie McGinty in Pennsylvania, Maggie Hassan in New Hampshire, Catherine Cortez Masto in Nevada and Deborah Ross in North Carolina.

"Please do what you can to help our Democratic women take back the Senate and stop Donald Trump and Mike Pence,” Warren wrote.
