Warren has actually lost the gender dispute, both for herself and other women. Noone knows what was said between the two of them. I’m 100% sure that if you put them on a polygraph machine, both could give “honest” answers that would not match. This is about choices.

Warren chose to take a private conversation with her “friend” and use it to attack him publically. Neither can prove what was said there, but Warren chose to turn the issue into identity politics meets #MeToo.

Warren chose not to quote him to allow him to defend himself directly on the debate stage.

Warren chose not to shake hands with him and attempt a “gotcha” moment after the debate while cameras were still rolling and mics were hot. Yes, that is speculation, but based upon how she has handled this issue from the initial leak, the odds are that Warren was trying to get a “bad” response from Bernie by going on the offensive after the debate.

Since the debate, Bernie has gone up in the polls, Warren down. Social media and even the anti-Bernie MSM has mostly backed Bernie. Bernie’s record on women’s rights, and his open support of Warren back before his 2015 run has been compared with Warren’s documented embellishments to paint herself as a victim. If Bernie is being honest here and Warren is again “embellishing,” it would fit the decades-long patterns of both.

This won’t end well for Warren, and has done a disservice for other women who really have been and are constantly being patronized by men. “The Girl Who Cried Wolf” affect is a real thing.
