Clinton gave Debbie Wasserman Schultz a top position in her campaign immediately after Schultz resigned from the Democratic National Committee. Embarrassing emails from Schultz had revealed attempts to sabotage Sen. Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign.



"What happened at the Democratic National Convention should not have happened," Warren said. "It is an embarrassment to the party and it is an embarrassment to the nation."



"Is it an embarrassment for (Clinton) to hire Schultz so quickly after she is dismissed from the DNC?" NewsCenter 5's Janet Wu asked Warren.

"I did not understand that," she replied.

On Donald Trump she was more blunt, questioning how he can argue with Gold Star parents, pocket a Purple Heart from a supporter and criticize Sen. John McCain.



"He just stands up every single day and says, 'What new way could I prove that I am unfit to be president of the United States? Let me dare the American people to support me in this election,'" Warren said.



Warren would not say if she would be running for re-election in two years, but said she loves her job because there are pockets of opportunity despite the logjam at the Democratic National Convention.
