Sen. Elizabeth Warren escalated her war-of-words with the White House Tuesday; viciously accusing President Trump of “stoking the flames of white nationalism” across the United States.

“The Trump administration has ignored the threat posed by white nationalists and violent extremists—and Trump himself has stoked the flames. In a Warren administration, we will use every tool we have to defeat domestic terrorism,” posted Warren on Twitter.

Warren’s proposal claims “the current administration has chosen to ignore the threat posed by white nationalists and affiliated violent extremists. Donald Trump has openly stoked these fires. He has cozied up to white nationalists.”

“We have all experienced the consequences of our president’s moral deficiencies. Hate crimes spiked after Trump’s election, and last year violent personal attacks reached a 16-year high. And while many of these crimes have racial motivations, the white nationalist ideology also targets people of different beliefs, sexual orientations, and ability – anyone who doesn’t meet their warped definition of belonging,” she adds.
