Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren speaks at a rally in Manchester, N.H., on Oct. 24, 2016, as Hillary Clinton and New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan look on.

Donald Trump has plenty of critics, but there are few who relish the role more than Elizabeth Warren.

That clearly seemed to be the case at a Monday rally in Manchester, N.H., as the Massachusetts senator took aim at Trump over his comment at last week's Las Vegas debate that Hillary Clinton was "such a nasty woman."

In introductory remarks before Clinton took the stage, Warren cited Trump's controversial comments about women over the years, as well as the 2005 Access Hollywood recording in which he's heard bragging that his celebrity status enabled him to grope women. "He thinks that because he has a mouthful of Tic-Tacs that he can force himself on any woman within groping distance."

She added: "I've got news for you, Donald Trump: Women have had it with guys like you, and nasty women have really had it with guys like you."

Warren wasn't done, though, saying that "nasty women" are "tough" and "smart."

"And on Nov. 8, we nasty women are going to march our nasty feet to cast our nasty votes to get you out of our lives forever," she said.

For her part, Clinton offered a prediction about how her opponent was likely to respond to his Twitter nemesis.

"I kind of expect if Donald heard what she just said, he's tweeting away," the Democratic presidential nominee said. "She gets under his thin skin like nobody else."
