it had to be some insane whiplash going from "these people interviewing us were doing some real bombshells during the iraq war era" to them just asking the dumbest inane questions that every dipshit on twitter tries to gotcha with

"I don’t care if Biden beats Trump. I’m not offloading responsibility. If enough people feel similar to me, such as the large population of Muslim people in Dearborn, Michigan. Then he won’t"


So what’s more likely -
Warren is lying about Sanders statements to her regarding if a woman can become president.

Bernie Sanders said in 2018 that a woman can’t be president, and is both sexist and a moron (considering that Clinton basically won in 2016 minus some very important details).

Warren said she said "a woman could beat Trump", but in reality she said "Betty Rubble could beat Trump", and Bernie disagreed because she isn't real.

Even if it was true, "America won't elect a woman president" is a completely banal observation that's been made by a million people before and since 2016, particularly many of the same people who would now pretend it's a controversial thing to say. Because of course if Bernie said it, he meant it sexistly

I remember when people assumed that Virgil is a succdem because he's the resident election wonk, and therefore he and Matt must hate each other.

It really shows how completely out of touch DC journalists are, that they’re into politics and podcasts but haven’t even tangentially heard of Chapo before booking an appearance by Matt and Virgil.

Their only answer to most of Matt and Virgil's points was to chuckle, like, wow, can you believe these guys are against forever war and support the most popular politician in the country? Crazy!

Personally I choose to believe women when they claim to suffer from harassment, and micro aggressions especially in behind closed door settings. I think someone who claims to be a good leftist should do the same.

I know you're trolling, but what Warren has done is incredibly harmful to actual victims of closed door harassment.

Warren going back to cynically gaming her identity and doing actual harm to progressive movements suck really bad. Just like she cynically gamed affirmative action, she's doing the same with the modern day movement against sexism.
