Sen. Elizabeth Warren took a tumble on the Senate floor on Wednesday — and Donald Trump’s MAGA fans went wild.
The 76-year-old stumbled as she leaned against a desk during a confirmation vote on Trump’s nominee to run the U.S. Marshals Service, and it gave way.
As she fell to the floor, members from both parties rushed to her aid — with even Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), an outspoken foe in the past, helping her to her feet.
Onlookers, meanwhile, rushed to social media, according to a roundup by The Daily Beast.
The website Conservative Brief posted, “Boom! Pocahontas herself, Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren, just took a nasty fall on the Senate floor. Perhaps it’s time for her to retire?” Right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson mocked, “Yikes. Down she goes.)
“It’s too bad Elizabeth Warren didn’t fall on her face,” wrote Ian Miles Cheong, an Elon Musk loyalist and commentator, according to the Beast.
Warren was apparently uninjured and went on to join Democrats in voting against the nomination of Gadyaces Serralta as director of the U.S. Marshals Service. The Senate voted to advance his nomination.
