Sen. Elizabeth Warren is no longer backing Daenerys Targaryen for the Iron Throne after she torched the city of King’s Landing in last week’s “Game of Thrones” episode:

Just in: @ewarren un-bends the knee ahead of @GameOfThrones finale — telling me Daenerys is no longer “the best choice” for the Iron Throne. Now, it is known. #got pic.twitter.com/oNRRl4Gxaw — Ali Vitali (@alivitali) May 19, 2019

However, on April 19, 2019 she wrote an op-ed explaining why the Mother of Dragons and now war criminal was the best choice to lead the Seven Kingdoms:

OK so yes, I am a huge Thrones nerd. But this wasn’t out of nowhere. As Ser @AFrancoTX reminds, Warren previously wrote an op-ed praising Daenerys as her favorite. #got — Ali Vitali (@alivitali) May 19, 2019

LOL. Look how sad Warren looks when she talks about Daenerys’ turn:

Find someone who looks at you like @AlxThomp looks at me while asking #GOT questions in a Warren gaggle. pic.twitter.com/lD8f4FdPiq — Ali Vitali (@alivitali) May 19, 2019

Here what she said just a few short weeks ago, via The Cut:

And as much as Dany wants to take on her family’s enemies and take back the Iron Throne, she knows that she must first fight the army of the dead that threatens all mankind. This is a revolutionary idea, in Westeros or anywhere else. A queen who declares that she doesn’t serve the interests of the rich and powerful? A ruler who doesn’t want to control the political system but to break the system as it is known? It’s no wonder that the people she meets in Westeros are skeptical. Skeptical, because they’ve seen another kind of woman on the Iron Throne: the villain we love to hate, Queen Cersei of Casterly Rock.

We’ll cover who actually wins the Throne in a few hours. Stay tuned. . .
