A top adviser to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Tuesday took a swipe at Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) over the senator's affiliation with the Republican Party decades ago. The remark from Nina Turner, a former Ohio state senator and the co-chairwoman for Sanders’s presidential campaign, comes amid rising tensions between the two leading progressives in the Democratic primary race. Turner’s comments came after Warren asserted during Tuesday night’s Democratic presidential debate that she was the only candidate on stage to have defeated a Republican incumbent at any point in the past 30 years. https://thehill.com/homenews/campai...rren-i-know-30-years-ago-she-was-a-republican Warren has an honesty problem. Even far leftists like Bernie and the young turks can see it. Its time for Elizabeth to come clean.
So basically, she's a Hillary clone in every sense of the word(Hillary was a Rockerfeller Republican.)
hunh? Where is the lie? What does she need to come clean about? Elizabehth Warren made a factual claim. Sanders' adviser took a dig at Warren for not being a democrat 30 years ago (also factually correct, and which Warren has discussed MANY times). Two facts. That is all. I have no idea how you see a lie in there. Care to elaborate?
I think if you read most of my input at PF it is relatively thought out and cogent commentary (with, like every other human being a once in a blue moon "what the heck is wrong with you" comment). The OP called Warren dishonest, and demanded she come clean regarding her statement that she was the only candidate to have defeated an incumbent in the last thirty years. Which was factually correct. No problem if you decide to criticize her for cleverly chosing thirty years, as both Bernie and Biden did defeat incumbents more than thirty years ago reminding everyone that they have been in politics for a very very very long time. But what she said was absolutely correct. I just want the OP to walk me through why he considers Warren dishonest for a statement that is correct. I genuinely don't get it.
The MSM / DNC want Warren or Biden over Sanders. They prefer Warren, because Biden is senile. The Democratic Party falls apart if Sanders wins.
Over on democrat underground its almost like a civil war has started. The Bernie supporters will stay home in the general if Warren wins, and vice versa they are saying. Which brings them back to senile ole Joe.
ROFL! That all sounds about right. Democrats / Leftists have been conditioned by their MSM / DailyKos world to become haters of anything outside of their narrow lanes. They treat blacks, gays, Latinos, entertainers who they believe are demographics they are supposed to "own" like pariahs if they do not go with the Leftists world view 100%. Look what they did to Tulsi Gabbard. She is their new shooting start that holds 95% of their beliefs, but is burned to the ground, because she wouldn't go along with the well documented corruption of the DNC in 2016.
AJ is not down playing it. He is clarifying for the OP that there was no lie. Therefore, the accusation of the OP, calling Warren dishonest, is dishonest in itself. However, we are used to that from the OP.
Yup and they are doing it to Bernie again-twice in a row. I can see why they are mad. Meanwhile-this is what Warren supporters think of Bernie...
Oh god. I tried to check out that board and....what a mess of a message board system. It's like the 90s puked up every geocities POS site into one. anyway, it's gonna be a long tough road for the Dems if they can't sort their crap out
Yes its an very dated system, and highly moderated/edited (they are lefties). Its funny that they are bickering, while others are trying to convince them to stop fighting. And some are hoping ignoring it makes the problem disappear while left wing/MSM media hypes it up.
Wait a minute......... Three multi-millionaires want to run (as socialists) for the nomination of the socialist party, and they can't find the front runner? What's going to happen next? A game show host will win the presidency......Oh wait. Nevermind.
