I may be a Gen-X white guy, but as a Warren supporter these tweets speak for me. [View all]

I'm all in no matter who we nominate, but it's still a travesty as to what happened to Warren's campaign.

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

Wall Street does not like Warren. guillaumeb Feb 2020 #1

All the more reason to vote for Warren. LonePirate Feb 2020 #7

I agree. guillaumeb Feb 2020 #9

Warren is the most prepared nominee for this time of rampant corruption. blm Feb 2020 #2

This Gen X white dude who will be caucusing for Liz this Saturday also feels this. malchickiwick Feb 2020 #3

Why is mysogyny hurting Warren... but not Klobuchar? CalFione Feb 2020 #6

Warren is still polling in the 12s. klobuchar in 4s. Unfortunately she will get the same Kurt V. Feb 2020 #10

It is misogyny, guillaumeb Feb 2020 #11

The "difficult boss" thing is bullshit CalFione Feb 2020 #15

Yes, we know that women are held to a different standard. guillaumeb Feb 2020 #18

This. Exactly this. malchickiwick Feb 2020 #29

I thought that you also framed it well. guillaumeb Feb 2020 #37

No doubt. blm Feb 2020 #23

Oh I think misogyny is the only explanation for Pete's polling ahead of Amy. malchickiwick Feb 2020 #28

Amy hasn't taken on Wall Street for her whole career, nor the monopolies that rule America. Scotch-Irish Feb 2020 #31

It's a double whammy after Hillary Clinton peggysue2 Feb 2020 #4

You're kind of erasing Amy Klobuchar here CalFione Feb 2020 #5

Warren was getting close to frontrunner status at one point. Bleacher Creature Feb 2020 #13

Another Gen X white guy who supports Warren is checking in as well. LonePirate Feb 2020 #8

K&R head and shoulders the best candidate imo Kurt V. Feb 2020 #12

I'm just disappointed that she doesn't really want to fight for the nomination. aikoaiko Feb 2020 #17

Maybe you have to get in the gutter, but I respect Liz even more for not. She has worked her ass off Evolve Dammit Feb 2020 #21

Warren doesn't attack teammates, she's wired to confront corruption. blm Feb 2020 #22

I totally agree that she is smarter than me and most people (including the other candidates). aikoaiko Feb 2020 #27

She tied herself too closely to Bernie and his promises. Blue_true Feb 2020 #25

Bingo. She should've pressed Bernie radius777 Feb 2020 #32

So Biden, Buttigieg, and Klobuchar could attack Warren but not Bernie, blm Feb 2020 #34

Agree that was stupid of them radius777 Feb 2020 #35

The problem is Bernie has studiously avoided coming up with numbers. Blue_true Feb 2020 #41

I am a white male, 57 year old boomer (technically boomer, I guess). warmfeet Feb 2020 #20

I think Warren's biggest mistake was cleaving too closely to Bernie's agenda CalFione Feb 2020 #26

Her Med4All plan was HERS and it didn't add burden to working families. blm Feb 2020 #33

These tweets exactly represent what I feel, too wackadoo wabbit Feb 2020 #24

Strongest candidate hands down, in all ways. krissey Feb 2020 #30

I think Warren is the best of the bunch. Hermit-The-Prog Feb 2020 #36

They speak for me too. BlueMTexpat Feb 2020 #38

It's the Wall Street money MoonlitKnight Feb 2020 #39

I voted for her in 2012 at East Boston High. iscooterliberally Feb 2020 #40
