I’ll take on Trump, if he is free: Liz

- BY KATE FELDMAN

Elizabeth Warren had avoided direct attacks against President Trump leading up to her presidenti­al run, but the Massachuse­tts senator isn’t holding back anymore.

In her first official campaign event after announcing her presidency Saturday, Warren went after her 2020 opponent — if he’s still around for the general elections, that is.

“By the time we get to 2020, Donald Trump may not even be President,” Warren told voters at a Cedar Rapids, Iowa, event at the Veterans Memorial Building Sunday. “In fact, he may not even be a free person.”

While the senator didn’t specify why exactly she thinks the President will end up behind bars, Trump faces several investigat­ions into the Russian influence on his campaign and his business dealings.

Several of his former advisers, including George Papadopolo­us, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates and Michael Flynn, have already pleaded guilty to various crimes.
