Sen. Elizabeth Warren says she isn’t running for president in 2020.
“I am not running for president in 2020,” Warren told CNN’s Jim Acosta on Saturday.
Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat and staunch critic of President Donald Trump, made the statement in an interview for CNN’s “State of the Union,” scheduled to air at 9 a.m., ET, on Sunday.
The lawmaker said the same thing to Chuck Todd of NBC News in an interview for “Meet the Press” when pressed about her Senate re-election campaign and her pledge to fulfill her six-year term.
“For the people of Massachusetts, and for the people across this country,” Warren said. “This government is working better and better and better for a thinner and thinner slice at the top. I am in these fights, and I am in this fight to retain my Senate seat in 2018. That’s where I’m focused. That’s where I’m going to stay focused. I’m not running for president.”
