WASHINGTON — Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized US Representative Blaine Luetkemeyer Thursday for making a “sexist and offensive” comment about her at an American Bankers Association meeting in Washington.

The Missouri congressman said that the banking industry needs to “neuter” Warren in an address on Wednesday to the powerful trade association of financial services industry officials.

He also compared Warren to a character from “Star Wars,” saying she’s the “Darth Vader of the financial services world.”

The comments were reported via Twitter Wednesday by Joseph Lawler, a reporter with the Washington Examiner who attended the bankers’ event.
