There's just absolutely no way that's true.

I really don’t think Bernie can win the election in November. The Dems should go with someone else.

Bernie Slanders

The terrible slander of stating (correctly) that Warren's base is more affluent and reliably Democrat than his own.

who sent them out to make trashings? Karl Rove?

maybe Ed can put a little fixin on it

Reminder that Republicans spent the entirety of the 4th quarter in 2019 trying to spin it that (actually) Ukraine was the country that engaged in hacking in order to affect the election in 2016

what a F-- idiot

Rove is laughing in his armchair somewhere right now

I’m in the camp that thinks this reads as an unremarkable strategy discussion between them (“what will it take to win the college” demographics stuff), which she then discussed with others. Eventually it got into the hands of someone whose candidacy is helped by Sanders and Warren fighting each other, and they put the oppo out there with anons to create suspicion between them.

Warren couldn’t seem more eager to move on from it.

Agreed, appears to be a nothing burger

"I just want to put this behind me. I mean, sure, yeah he did say a woman can't win, but I totally want to put this behind me. He's a great guy! no really! ...though some say he might be a little sexist. I can't say for sure though. I don't want to talk about that. We're friends!"

Basically this

I think he’s maybe the only one who CAN win.

That said, I’m not a “beating Trump is all that matters” voter - I’d vote for Bernie because I believe in his politics. If it’s between Trump and some establishment scumbag like Biden, I don’t give a shit who wins.

Is this supposed to exculpate Warren? 2016 demonstrated well that "he's a sexist" is a narrative that doesn't need hard evidence to proliferate.

I don't believe Bernie is sexist, but I believe he thinks (correctly) that a majority of Americans are.
