It appears to be in response to this attack on Sen. Warren from billionaire Leon Cooperman:

She should’ve credited Ben Shapiro, at the very least:
When you aren't clever enough to have your own ideas, so you rip off @benshapiro's.

Maybe this is how she’ll pay for Medicare-for-all?
Asking $25 for a $3 coffee mug is how she’s gonna pay for MFA.

Behold, the power of unions to make a mug this expensive!

And we’ll note that she can sell a mug like this thanks to the billionaire owner of Shopify:
“Powered by Shopify.” Shopify’s CEO? Tobias Lütke. His net worth? $2.7 billion. You’re literally giving money to a multimillionaire who is generating money for a multibillionaire, all so you can have a mug showing that you’re super duper serious about “rich people bad.”

Some are comparing her behavior here to that of President Donald Trump:
To me this is awful and very Trumpish and reminds me of Trump demonizing the media, you may not agree with another American but I want in my Democrat President someone who talks positively about building a better future. I want my President to stop this Trump/ Warren behavior

It’s the new normal:
Everyone is Trump now. https://t.co/nbygYMzn9d
