Elizabeth Warren: 'Left, Female, and Furious'

The Brian Lehrer Show | Jul 23, 2018

Rebecca Traister, writer-at-large for New York Magazine and the author of All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation (Simon & Schuster, 2016) and the forthcoming Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger (Simon & Schuster, 2018), talks about her profile of Elizabeth Warren as she runs for re-election to the Senate and contemplates a presidential run in 2020.

She says many of Warren's supporters think she's the perfect candidate for 2020: "left, female and furious," and reminds listeners that the Bernie wing of the Democratic Party used to be the Warren wing.
