Sanders Fans Outraged After Warren’s “Disgusting” Debate Snub

The burgeoning feud between Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders that has helped to divide America’s newly resurgent far-left just escalated to absurd new heights.

After the conclusion of last night’s debate, Sanders approached Warren and extended his hand for a handshake. Instead of taking his hand in friendship, Warren brushed it aside, walked up to Sanders and, with her hands clenched, said something to him that wasn’t picked up on the debate mics, which had already been turned off.

After they spoke, Sanders seemingly threw up his hands in frustration.

The feud has been a major political story this week, thanks to Warren’s assertion – which first appeared in a CNN report – that Sanders told her during a meeting back in 2018 that he felt a women couldn’t win the presidency of the US. Sanders has vehemently denied this, and his campaign has released a video from 30 years ago where he tells an interviewer that he does believe a woman could be president.

Though, as late-night comedian and Daily Show host Trevor Noah joked, for all we know, this video could have been shot yesterday since Sanders looks the same as he did in 1988.

In a tweet highlighted yesterday by the NYT, one left-wing activist compared the feud to “mom and dad” fighting.

mom and dad are fighting and all I wanna do is go to my room and put my headphones on.

Unsurprisingly, Sanders’ fanatical supporters laid into Warren.

There’s no “appears” about it…

I sincerely hope @SenSanders never refers to her as his “friend Elizabeth Warren” ever again after her disgusting behavior the past few days.

Wow. https://t.co/uv0AtrRdWV

Warren:

– stands and claps for Donald Trump

– snubs Bernie Sanders’ offered hand

While others found an opportunity for some light political humor.

Sadly, the only person who knows what was said between them is Tom Steyer, who was awkwardly standing near the two candidates during the snub.

With Sanders’ now surging in the polls three weeks before Iowa, will Warren resort to more low blows and “he said, she said” claimws to try and trip up his momentum?
