Elizabeth Warren recently began a campaign against a trade deal claiming that a future president could use it as an excuse to undo something Obama signed into law in 2010, but now President Obama is saying she is wrong.

On Saturday, Yahoo! Politics reported that when the President was asked about Warren leading a vocal fight, he seemed "unusually irritated."

"Think about the logic of that, right?" he said. "The notion that I had this massive fight with Wall Street to make sure that we don't repeat what happened in 2007, 2008. And then I sign a provision that would unravel it?"

Obama seems to think that Warren's fight is actually underminding him.

"I'd have to be pretty stupid," Obama said, laughing. "This is pure speculation. She and I both taught law school, and you know, one of the things you do as a law professor is you spin out hypotheticals. And this is all hypothetical, speculative."

But the president isn't convinced that it was all about the trade deal, he seems to think she is pushing her personal brand as well.

"The truth of the matter is that Elizabeth is, you know, a politician like everybody else," he said. "And you know, she's got a voice that she wants to get out there. And I understand that. And on most issues, she and I deeply agree. On this one, though, her arguments don't stand the test of fact and scrutiny."

Obama then made sure that to acknowledge the "emotion" surrounding the issue.

"I understand the emotions behind it," he said. "But when you break down the logic of their arguments, I've got to say that there's not much there there."
