"Let's only forward male politicians because working class populations have no interest in equality."

It seems like a very toxic element to introduce into politics.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

How to weaponize sexism in the working class bluedye33139 Jan 2020 #1

Yes, elitist charges made against the most pro-working class platform blm Jan 2020 #17

Dirty dirty dirty...and guess who's first name comes right after that? It has a ring to it. nt UniteFightBack Jan 2020 #2

We knew it would happen. LakeArenal Jan 2020 #3

It happened with O'Rourke too. nt TexasTowelie Jan 2020 #45

Sad, and coupled with Biden camp attacking EW as an elitist. So wrongheaded. blm Jan 2020 #4

When and where has the Biden camp attacked her as an elitist? George II Jan 2020 #8

Surely, you jest? blm Jan 2020 #9

Lol BeyondGeography Jan 2020 #10

And November blm Jan 2020 #11

No, I don't surely jest. George II Jan 2020 #13

Well, you must have missed October and November where blm Jan 2020 #15

And what began that exchange that used no names as I recall...Warren saying Biden was running Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #27

No and don't call him Shirley! whistler162 Jan 2020 #21

So, your own post on this means you really DIDN'T know blm Jan 2020 #25

Again, it wasn't attacking her as an elitist (that would be an all-encompassing characterization)... George II Jan 2020 #26

Two months of it. You want Sanders to pay a price for his wrongheaded blm Jan 2020 #29

Right. Now listening to Biden supporters being outraged by Sanders for the attack on Warren Bummfuzzle Jan 2020 #16

Any camp pushing this lie against Warren is wrong. blm Jan 2020 #19

I was surprised as heck to hear it, for sure. I thought the same. I also remember Bummfuzzle Jan 2020 #22

I'm not "outraged".. it's typical BS.. that's what he does. Cha Jan 2020 #30

Biden did the same thing using elitism to paint Warren as not for the working class, but he is. Bummfuzzle Jan 2020 #33

And, I said.. I don't like it. BS does it All the TIME. Cha Jan 2020 #36

Thank you. Bummfuzzle Jan 2020 #43

She said he wasn't a Democrat ...running in the wrong primary...he said it was elitist to believe Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #28

omg.. that's right.. EW did say that.. Cha Jan 2020 #37

That is what began the exchange...but there was no script or running on it for money or votes. Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #40

Thanks.. seems some people convenientlyl FoRGET That. Cha Jan 2020 #41

OK Senator Warren. Time to stop playing nice with him question everything Jan 2020 #5

Way past time.. it's NOT Working. Cha Jan 2020 #38

So, kcr Jan 2020 #6

Exactly right! eom BlueMTexpat Jan 2020 #46

Scorched earth. The Valley Below Jan 2020 #7

It's calculating and cruel. Manipulative blm Jan 2020 #12

That's exactly the problem. It only works for some. kcr Jan 2020 #14

+1000. nt MH1 Jan 2020 #18

Such a "uniter" NOT Cha Jan 2020 #39

+ a million or so! eom BlueMTexpat Jan 2020 #47

This is a story based on a "script" that is not part of the Sanders campaign. I am a phone banker Nanjeanne Jan 2020 #20

If what you say is true than why hasn't Sanders made a statement...he said 'no comment' I believe. Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #31

I don't know. I am a volunteer. I only hear from Bernie on strategy calls. But im Nanjeanne Jan 2020 #42

Will check further. Right now blm Jan 2020 #35

Actually what is being reported as a possible comment re Warren is not Nanjeanne Jan 2020 #44

Bernie Sanders net worth: $2.5 Million brooklynite Jan 2020 #23

Again, false things being reported on account dana_b Jan 2020 #24

It seems to me a sneaky sort of way to get a message out...Warren is elitist which she is not... Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #32

The press loves to post attacks on Warren, whether true or not. blm Jan 2020 #34
